Here are this week’s Life Pro Tips.
1. If you’ve got some free time and you’re planning on spending it watching tv/playing video games, etc. make yourself go on a short walk or do some brief exercise beforehand. You’ll probably end up going longer than you planned and you’ll feel better about relaxing after.
2. If a service dog without a person approaches you, it means the person is down and in need of help.
3. Mamma animals often leave their babies for short periods to go and find food so don’t immediately bring in a lonely baby animal.
It’s spring so it’s baby season. Most mamma animals find a spot they feel is safe and leave their babies while they get food, sometimes it’s for hours. Leave wild baby animals be, they are tougher than they look.
Exceptions obviously apply. If the babies are in danger, show signs of infection or injury, do try and get them help. If they are in danger, see if you can move them to a safer spot (take a look online to get specific tips for that animal) before getting a rehabilitation center involved.
4. When buying a new appliance (eg, washer, dryer, dishwasher) ask an appliance REPAIRMAN which model he recommends. Don’t ask the salesman at Lowe’s…
5. If you are uninsured and get any kind of hospital bill, never pay the full stated amount, always contact the billing department and ask to pay for the insurance rate.
