When you plan on walking through the woods or spending time in the yard, wear long pants, long socks, long sleeves, and boots. This creates a barrier between ticks and your skin, which reduces the likelihood of them attaching to your skin. You can still do this in the summertime when it's warm outside; just wear breathable fabrics such as cotton and linen mixes. Purchase a repellent spray such as Sawyer Brand's Fisherman's Formula or OFF! Deep Woods. Spray the product all over your body just before going outside in order to effectively repel ticks. Pour 1 cup (236.5 mL) of vinegar into a spray bottle. Add in 10-15 drops of a tick-repelling essential oil, such as cedar, geranium, or lavender, and shake the bottle. Spray the mixture all over your exposed skin and clothing before spending time outside. As an alternative, put a few drops of a tick-repelling essential oil, such as eucalyptus, onto a lint roller and take it outside with you. Every hour or so, roll the lint roller along the outside of your clothing to capture and immobilize any ticks that are crawling on you. After you've been outside, thoroughly check your body for ticks. If you find any on your clothing, wash your clothes in hot water and dry them on high heat to kill any ticks. Pay especially close attention to your underarms, ears, hair, belly button, and the back of your knees, as ticks often latch onto these parts of the body. Always bathe within 2 hours of coming inside to wash off any ticks that aren't attached to you. This will also reduce your risk of getting Lyme disease.

When you're under a lot of pressure the tendency is to force yourself to work nonstop to make up for lost time or beat a deadline. However, taking an active break can rejuvenate you in the areas of attention, creativity, and result in greater productivity. Set your cell phone timer to vibrate and take a 2-minute break for every hour of work. What can you do during an active break? Stretch. Drink water. Walk around to a different area of your workplace. Even better, take a quick walk outdoors and get some fresh air. We frequently feel under heavy pressure because we are keeping busy rather than keeping productive. One way to reduce stress and get more done is to organize your daily tasks by order of importance. Each morning - or the night before - make a list of your to-dos. Write down all the tacs you need to get done that day. Next, take any particularly large tasks and break them down into smaller steps. Finally, mark items on your list by priority using the A-B-C method. A - tasks that are significant to your professional and/or personal growth; tasks in support of important people in your life; tasks that are both urgent and important B - any tasks that are important, but do not have the urgency factor C - tasks that it would be nice to do, but not important Finally, start working on your daily to-do list completing your priority A's first. You may be responsible for putting undue stress on yourself by trying to stay in control of everything. Delegating some tasks others allows you to continue to perform well in high-stress environments without making sacrifices in the standard of work you provide. If you are new to delegating, choose a relatively small task from your to-do list. Think of a person who already has the skills, or is willing to learn how, to perform this task beautifully. Clearly state your specific needs and any details or deadlines associated with getting the task done. Check in on the person's progress regular without micromanaging or being judgmental. One of the most practical skills you can learn to reduce pressure and find greater success is exercising your right to say "no". You may think saying "no" will cause you to miss out on opportunities or shut you off from them in the future. In fact, learning to say "no" helps you reprioritize opportunities so that you are using your time, resources, and skills most effectively. Decide when it's important to say no by asking yourself: Is this new commitment something I feel strongly about? Is it important to my goals? If not, pass on it. Is this new commitment a short-term stressor or will it be adding weeks and months of additional stress to my plate? If it's short-term, take it. If it's long-term, only take it if it is extremely meaningful to your personal/professional growth and worth the burden. Am I saying "yes" out of guilt or obligation? If so, don't do it. Do I have time to sleep on this and weigh the pros and cons without having to make a snap decision? If so, sleep on it.

It will usually cost around 7 dollars. You will see the starting menu. Press Play to begin the game. Simply tap on the "New" button to select what you want to play. If you want to, name your world. You don't have to give it a name, but if you have multiple save files, having names helps to distinguish them. You can also enter a world seed. World seeds are codes that bring you to a certain map. However, you don't need to have a world seed, as any world spawned without a seed will have the necessities for a successful game. Do you want to play Survival mode, or Creative mode? Creative means you have unlimited resources, can break blocks instantly, and you can do anything without dying. Survival mode is when you have limited resources and can die, being attacked by monsters, falling from height, and more.

To make a simple bubble solution, all you need is liquid dish soap, water, and glycerin. Dawn and Joy brands work best, but feel free to experiment with other detergents. You can buy glycerin at craft stores or from a pharmacy. You can use light corn syrup instead of glycerin. Mix 2/3 cup dish soap, 1 gallon (3.8L) of water, and 2-3 tablespoons of glycerin for a basic bubble solution. Stir the ingredients together gently, taking care not to create too much foam. It is best to keep your solution in a clean jar with a lid. If you are replacing the glycerin with corn syrup, you will need to adjust your ratios. Use 1/4 cup of light corn syrup for each tablespoon of glycerin. For best results, let the solution sit overnight. There are several different recipes for making bubble soap. The ratio of the ingredients will determine the strength of your bubbles. Soap helps the water to form a bubble by stabilizing the water molecules. Increasing the amount of soap in your solution may yield a stronger bubble. However, too much soap could cause the bubbles to collapse. Glycerin and corn syrup help create a "skin" for the bubbles, helping them last longer.
