    About Me

    This is my philosophy.

    Search my archives on the upper left side of the screen. If I haven't addressed your topic yet, send me an email. I get 12-15 questions a day, so yours may not go up on the site, and since I have other jobs I may not answer privately, either. Someday...

    New questions post M-F at 6 am (EST), usually, with a book review up on Friday night.

Ugh, I'm so sorry. My favorite lip balm, which was so well used that I couldn't read the label anymore, got used up by my daughter when she had the flu and her lips were chapped. I don't know how to replace it, sob.

What lip balms are these that are so beloved? I'm totally curious what inspires such loyalty.

Another reason to hate organized sports.

so not cool.

perhaps even less cool that you needed to go so bad as to use a port-a-potty. shudder.

BLECH! It's the tiniest little things that sometimes wrench your day. Hope you find a replacement soon.

@O: my favoritest lip balm in the world is called "Chicken Poop". No lie. I'm not really sure who makes it, but the gift shop on the corner carries it.

I love the plain Burts Bees. I buy them everytime I am at CVS or Walgreens so you can find one pretty much anywhere in my house, car, or purse...

Learned my lesson about the biiiiig iced coffee on the way to LL...

you can make your own out of beeswax and food grade oils in about 5 minutes. It'll be the best lip balm you've ever had, and it's so easy you can have the kids help (I'm making it with my daughter's preschool class next month). They sell tubes and tubs at Joann fabric and other craft stores (or if you want to make a lot, you can order them online in bulk). Try it - you'll love it.

My senior year in high school (we are talking 15+ years ago) I carried a bucket purse. It was a tapestry print around the sides with a leather bottom. I took it into "the city" with my girlfriends to attend a festival, flirt with college boys and maybe score some beer. I was relieving myself in a port-a-let (after "scoring" said beers) and the purse somehow fell into the abyss. Problem was, my wallet was in there and I needed the cash to take the train home. Remember how I mentioned I carried a bucket purse? Well, I had to reach in, and oh so carefully open the top (thank GOD it landed on it's flat bottom) and open the top to remove my wallet. That could have been one of the single most disgusting moments of my life.

Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money ; it lies in the joy of achievement , in the thrill of creative effort.

This is a good article. I agree, if there is a method of saving costs then I am all for it. The last place I would have thought to notice a disease was in the eyes.
