Turmeric

Annnnd, this would be a case where something might work for some people (like African Americans) and not so much for others (like Asian Americans or just Caucasians or the like).

Working mothers

I don't know how working mothers do it. I feel like there is ALWAYS a load of laundry to be done - washed, dried, folded, put away. Once one load is done, another one is always waiting. Then there's the dishes.

I don't know how working mothers get up, pack a lunch, go to work and then come home and still find the time to make dinner and tend to the house. It's exhausting.

It's unjust that they don't get equal pay at work. It's crazy. That's it. That's all I have to say for today. Working mothers are amazing. Mothers are amazing people.

The Power of Essential Oils

I really cannot tell you how much I love essential oils and it really irritates me that essential oils and homeopathic remedies are not suggested at a regular doctor visit. It is very annoying that something so healthy will be overlooked to plug our bodies with poison.

Vanity

So, you know the babes just recently had to get stitches. Firstly, I understand it was a very sensitive spot on her face. Kind of prominent - like, an L shape right over her left eyebrow... And you know, her father and I are talking with the doctors and they are saying plastic surgery, ophthalmologist...stitches, scar. It's enough to make any seven year old feel self-conscious.

Parenting other people's kids...again..

Just had dinner at a friend's house. We were in the kitchen prepping dinner when her daughter came in and announced, "We're bored"...now mind you, we hadn't even been there 30 minutes. I turned right to her and said to her exactly what I have said to D,

Stitches

Ooh boo. The babes had to get stitches the other day! She was horse riding and her horse spooked and she fell off. I'm convinced it was her helmet that caused a huge gash right above her eye that require stitches. I'm just about to shoot off a letter to the manufacturer AND inform all horse riders and trainers, that this particular brand of helmet is a hazard!!

On Silence

When I drive, I usually do not have the music on. I might put NPR or KPCC on for a minute and then I'll get tired of it and turn it off. I kind of just really like silence. And so when I have D in the car, it's silence. No news.
