Well the time is passing by pretty quickly. The crop is in 2 more weeks I hope I feel better by then. I think I have a sinus infection it is just killing me first the headaches, then the stuffiness, and finally the chest congestion. It in a whole it has made it hard to sleep and get enough rest to function that is for sure. I will be glad when I am rid of it. So the news is that The Diva Design is having more vendors than the last crop. I love the vendors if you get there and forget something they usually have it is great. I am looking forward to scrapbooking for hours on the 24th. We have not done much scrapin since everyone is taking turns getting sick these days. I will have plenty of pictures of us at the crop and some of the pages we got done too. So look forward to the up coming blog entries when I get back from the crop. Stay well all. Goodnight.  Read more... (177 words, 1 image, estimated 42 secs reading time)

The wind is blowing around the change of seasons and wow does that ever mess with your sinus and allergy season. I have been having problems for a couple of weeks it is crazy and frustrating. Sorry about the lack of conversation. I will try and do better this week.  I hope everyone is taking some really cool Fall pictures with the changes of the colors in the trees.

Well I have not felt well lately. I think the continued change in the weather is not helping much. When I feel a little better my girlfriend feels bad , we have both been suffering from allergies, so it’s been hard trying to get over there to scrapbook. Then there’s the weather. It’s been so cold and windy out. I am so glad that they are saying next week will be warmer. I am so ready for Spring. The warm weather, Spring rain, green grass and flowers.  Torrie really loves to go out to play and she is very upset because she has been stuck inside most of the time.  She loves to play out in the backyard with her dog socks and Chrissy. Chrissy is so gentle with her she is part Husky and part Akita. Socks is the little one that mostly looks like a Terrier. They run and chase. She likes to throw sticks and they run and get them only sometimes bringing them back most of the time they chew and break them up. Then she also like to swing andslide on her swing set. So maybe we will both get our wish this weekend. She can go out and play and I can go and scrapbook. You have a good weekend too.  Read more... (217 words, 1 image, estimated 52 secs reading time)

Returning home loaded with bags of groceries, Suzanne winced as she walked in and heard all three of her children quarreling at the top of their lungs. Suzanne, instantly angry, yelled, “Why can’t you kids go one hour without fighting? You don’t deserve what I do for you! Go to your rooms – NOW!”

As she set the groceries down, Suzanne knew she hadn’t handled that well, but didn’t know what to do about it, and wasn’t in the mood to fix it anyway.  Read more... (1423 words, 1 image, estimated 5:42 mins reading time)

Activities For Seniors

More and more, scientific studies are showing that an active senior is a happy senior. Between physical activities for seniors, staying mentally active, and keeping up a healthy social circle, older people can prolong healthy living by years or even decades. With all the attention people put into good nutrition and exercise when they’re young, it is amazing that senior activities have escaped attention until recently. Fortunately, things are changing, and changing quickly! Within a decade, active seniors will be the norm and the days of old people sitting bored in front of the TV all day will be a distant memory.  Read more...

Cosmetic and medical products that get in contact with our skin are absorbed through the skin, get in the blood stream and can accumulate in high quantities in different parts of our bodies. The absorption of substances from outside the skin to positions beneath the skin, including entrance to the blood stream, is referred to as Percutaneous Absorption. Usually, shampoos contain very aggressive cleaning ingredients that desroy hydrolipidic film. Hydrolipidic film is an emulsion of water (hydro) and fat (lipos). Its main function is an external barrier, a defense against bacteria and fungi. In addition it keeps the skin supple. The cleaning ingredients of shampoos destroy external barrier of the scalp and all the dangerous ingredients found in shampoos enter our bodies.  Read more...
