Winter Lilies

Sometimes I’d like to tell people, lovely, well-meaning people to save the date cards. I’m not interested in a relationship! I’ve tried the relationship thing 3 times with disasterous results. I’ve gone out on other dates, and been bored out of my mind!! It’s just not for me!! I am quite happy with my life the way it is!! That’s just how it is, I wish people would understand that I like my life, and am not looking for a relationship.

Have you ever heard of a home remedy for acne? I hadn’t until today, but I might of expected there to be one. I have nothing against home remedies of any type, if they work. I’m all for making things like that, providing they work as well as the products that I can find in the store. Especially if it’s cheaper for me to make it!

Hmm, what is the best wrinkle cream? Why are people so worried about wrinkles to start with? Isn’t life so much more important than the lines that might crease your face or hands? At the girls’ soccer game this morning the last thing I was thinking about was whether I had wrinkles or not. When I’m busy working, trying to make a living, I’m not thinking about wrinkles. Through the joys and sorrows of life, the happy and sad times, the easy and hard times, I’ve never thought about wrinkles.

What one person can really say what the best acne treatments are for everyone? This has always puzzled me, because what may work astoundingly well for you, may not work as well for me, and vice versa. However I do know that good personal hygiene is step one, and that’s what I’ve been trying to teach my girls. The rest is experimentation as far as I can tell, to find what works best for them.

It’s funny how memories can be linked to certain things. Take women’s sweaters for example. I remember the sweater I wore on my first date. Going back even farther I remember a favorite sweater that my Aunt Ardi sent to me as a child. I remember other sweaters from my childhood and the past years as well. I recieved a beautiful white sweater one year for Christmas. It was one of the longer styled ones that I love, and yet I think I only wore it once because I was afraid of staining it.

I laugh when I hear words like hydroxycut, if you break down the word it’s basically “cutting with water”, and yet I’m sure it actually is nothing of the sort. I guess breaking down words comes from my medical terminology class, because you have to break down the medical words in order to find out what the doctor is talking about.

I haven’t needed sleep-pills this past week. I’ve been exhausted from working, and keeping up with everything else!! I told Dad quite honestly that I don’t think I could handle this type of job long term, as it is just too much physical work, adding in everything else I do around here, it would be too much for me to handle long term. However it has been nice to be busy working, plus the money is nice. I am hoping to continue the work this next week, and do some other odds and ends work in the coming weeks and months, but nothing is set for sure.

With all the drugs flooding the market, both prescription and non-prescription, I wonder how us consumers are supposed to keep up with them all. Ones like adipexin I hadn’t heard of until today, or at least not that I remember. Apparently it’s a diet pill of some sort, but really who can really remember. I think companies need to do something to make their drugs stand out, away from the others, so that when you say “adipexin” other people know what you are talking about.

Many things could fall under that title, but for right now, it’s Bubble and Bob’s house that they have been remodeling. It’s in the finishing stages, and yet there is still a lot to do. I have been going in to help them this week.

Hopefully I’m a big enough help that they will hire me to come out to their house to help with some stuff out there!!!

They have several big projects that they plan to work on out there, and it seems to me that it would be nice to have some extra help. I’m just not sure they would want to pay for my help.

You know, most of the time growing up, if we had dressers at all, they had drawers that you had to fight to get opened and shut. Old, hand-me-down dressers that had always seen better days, though we were lucky to have them! So anyway I was thrilled to get a new bedroom set which included a new dresser and a chest of drawers. However the drawer pull is so easy on these that I’m not sure I like them much better than the old fighting drawers. *LOL* I’m always afraid when I give a tug on the drawer that I’m going to pull it right out.
