To Smell Good is to Feel Good

Image
I am not really a perfume person. Even when I was younger, I could go on for years without wearing perfume. But I had favorites. In college, my cousin Marge introduced me to Givenchy, and different versions of the Dior line. Each version was distinctly heavenly, but I liked Givenchy better. As I got older, I have turned my interest on perfumed candles. I love candles in the bathroom especially when I take my showers. Lavenders especially, and vanilla and ginger too! Recently,  I have been introduced to lollia . My friend gave me a peony white lily shea butter hand creme and my golly, it smells and feels terrific. But it's the perfumed candles I  am imagining I would have a  collection of one day soon.. For now, I am savoring the hand creme.. and here are the details of the creme: "Hydrating shea butter is whipped with fragrant infusions to create this lusciously moisturizing hand cream. Presented in a pretty floral box with a gift-ready paper sleeve.     * Key ing

Meds for Pets

It is never easy to have a pet. Ownership requires a certain level of  responsibility. Very similar to taking care of a small child, pets need lots of attention. At a certain age, they can  not  be left on their own. Moreover, pets must have  food, good training, essential grooming, not to mention play and exercise.  Pet food must be healthy to avoid excess weight -  which could be bad for the heart. Play is  necessary to ensure that the pet gets enough exercise to provide balance. As an owner, your pet would need you to walk him, or feed him and where applicable, bring him to the veterinarian periodically to make sure  that the pet is always in tip top condition. Of course, it is quite normal for pets to feel unwell sometimes. Even humans get out of sync from time to time. For pet dogs, annoying fleas, allergies, urinary infections, even arthritis, must be addressed and you would definitely need  your petmeds at vetdepot. If you don't have a dog, you can probably get a cat.

Dedicated to one of my best friends

From an old song by Diana Ross.. was significant to me at one point in my life and now i see that it could be for a friend.. I can't cover up my feelings In the name of love Or play it safe For a while that was easy And if living for myself Is what I'm guilty of Go on and sentence me I'll still be free It's my turn To see what I can see I hope you'll understand This time's just for me Because it's my turn With no apologies I've given up the truth To those I've tried to please But now it's my turn If I don't have all the answers At least I know I'll take my share of chances Ain't no use of holding on When nothing stays the same So I'll let it rain 'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me And I'll let you go 'Though I know it won't be easy It's my turn With no more room for lies For years I've seen my life Through someone else's eyes And now it's my turn To try and find my way And if I should g

Getting to a point of no return?

I pray to God, please No! My son kept playing this song over and over from his laptop.. song by hale,  a group who achieved some level of meteoric rise from a couple of yours back.. You speak loudly but When I'm not around You'll be just like them So shallow and obnoxious Please, that's enough, that's enough Please, I've said this a million times before And I'm sick But all that I need And all that I breath And all that care for is you You said that you'd call By the time you will be home But you never did You said you didn't mean to And now I am outraged As if we were engaged You made me realize I'm just your alibi Please, that's enough, that's enough Please, I've said this a million times before And I'm sick But all that I need And all that I breath And all that care for is you And all that I need And all that I breath And all that care for is you I hate you

Friends at Sulo

Sulo is the Filipino word for torch.. and the torch symbolizes hope and enlightenment.. and what two fitting words for the night, being spent by friends of forty or so years.. And by the way there's an idiomatic expression such as "carry a torch" for someone or to love or be infatuated but the love is unrequited..does this mean anything for any of us? :-D
