 May those who fear You see me and be glad, because I wait for Your word.

Good Golly Ms. Molly  so hard to believe that it is already Feb. 9th  . . . 2010 is zooming along! Not too many days until Valentine's Day  . . . the other day playing  about at PicJoke.com  I came across this one & thought

 . . . now that is perfect  with Valentine's  coming up, we can maybe make a few cards for the girls Grandma's  & others  . . . I think they will like it, plan to tell my brother  about this place . . . he is crazy mad with the camera   & is going insane with taking pix now that his baby  boy is here, this could be a perfect place for him to get real creative!

Welp, more snow  is coming our way . . . ugh  . . . I tell you the white stuff sure is pretty  until you have to find a place to put it  then again I believe I already said that eh? . . . hhmmm  

. . . anyhow no school on Monday, no school on today & more then likely no school tomorrow either  .  .  . found yet another grand background at PicJoke.com . . . this one had me thinking of Spring  . . .

hhhmmm  . . . this would have been a real cute  pix of snow/snowflake  in the balloon  flaoting up & away eh  . . . yeah . . . I would love to be posting up some pix  but my trusting camera finally had enough of me & went major pfftttttt  the other day . . .  I shall miss that camera

  God, how would You have me encourage others today? Please empower me to bless those around me mightily with my spiritual gifts! Amen

I am not  sure how old Lola  was when she moved in with us, on the 28th Aug. I posted an entry  about her arrival  . . .

She is deeply missed . . .

 

 

 

 God, You know the destructive attitudes that continue to hinder me. Thank You for teaching me the truth that heals and liberates me from them . Amen

~ The White Stuff ~

  • Mood:

 

 

 Then everyone will stand in awe, proclaiming the mighty acts of God, realizing all the amazing things He does.

~ Psalm 64:9 NLT

Awhelp, they are forecasting more snow  is headed our way today . . . may start somewhere around 10 a.m. & 12 p.m.  & may end some time Saturday  . . . word is we can expect near 11 inches - 19 inches  . . . just depends on who is talking & who is listening  . . . then Tues  may bring a tad bit more our way . . . . kids have had a crazy "school week" . . . Monday closed due to the last batch of snow, Tues, 2 hours late, Wed. 2 hours late, Thurs. was a scheduled 2 hour early, not sure yet what is going on today  ( School was closed on Friday )

. . . . . speaking of the "white" stuff- let's talk Lice  . . . if you are not familiar with lice nor ever experienced them, you are a very fortunate one  . . . "the head louse is a tiny, wingless parasitic insect that lives among human hairs and feeds on extremely small amounts of blood drawn from the scalp" . . .  Goodness Gracious I am sooooo not found  of those lil buggies! I have only had one encounter with them before & that was when we lived down in Florida & that was enough of an experience that I knew I never ever wanted to go through that again  . . . but then came last week   . . . the girls   bus drops them off at 3:40 p.m. I received a call  from the school nurse at 3:15 p.m informing me that a friend that my oldest daughter  plays with was examined & lice had been found  . . . some had been discovered on my girl's  head as well! nnnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Luckily the nurse  who is a major sweet pea sent home 3 seperate applications to be applied . . . me & my girls   got long thick hair, where as my Hub & son  got short crew cuts . . . while I waited for the girls    to return home ( generally when lice is found they are not to be riding the bus but my youngest one was already on & headed to the house so the nurse sent my oldest as well ) in panic mode ( yep those critters give me the jitters ) I called  Hub up to ask him to bring home some de-licing products . . . after I got off the phone with him & spoke to a neighbor  who's girl is over here playing often ( the girls Mom was so understanding & not a bit upset, I am truly Thankful  for this  I got to thinking & called  Hub up & told him to NOT bring home any of the store products, I really don't like the Lice that is for sure but what I dislike more is us making this place into a major chemical zone trying to ward off these lil buggers  . . . the fact is that a majority of these products ( including the ones we use to de-flea our furbabies ) is MORE harmful to us then it is to the bugs

So off I went in search  of some tips . . . the first time I encountered lice my Mother told me Turpentine, she resided in an orphange for quite some time & that was their method to remove Lice, it worked but seeing I am a smoker . . . mmmm think I will pass on that method at this time ( but reading up about Turpentine I found out it is a fluid ontained by the distillation of resin obtained from trees, mainly pine trees . . . so it has me poundering about pine products now ) . . . have you ever saw the show Arthur ? Love  that show! Anyhow a long time back we saw an episode that was about Lice . . . they explained that Lice don't like dirty hair, they enjoy clean hair . . . now to convince the snide individuals about that!  . . . they also showed the tip of Mayonaise ( nurse mentioned this too  & putting all stuffed animals in plastic bags for at least a week  to smoother any lice that may be on them . . . it is really a cute show & if you have had to encounter lice or your child's school is going through it like ours I suggest you suggest to them to watch it, it may help the kids understand what is going on a bit more & hopefully be more understanding to those who are going through it as well . . . let's see, some tips I read were to use Listerine ( or any mouth rinse product ) you dose your hair with it, wrap your hair ( not your face! ) in plastic & leave it for two hours, then follow that with a vinegar & wrap up your hair for another hour . . . I kinda laughed  at this one thinking . . . . oooooo, bet that smells real pretty when you are done!  . . . but I also was curious  of the effect it may have on your hair, I know a lot of people like to do a vinegar rinse on their hair so I was not too concerned on that but the Listerine . . . hhhhmmm  teeth are a bit stronger then hair so I wonder could it strip your hair of more then the lice? . . . & of course I read about the Mayo, which is a ole school hair care tip already . . . it is suppose to help you remove the Nits with much better ease . . . . hhhmmmmm

So what is our plan? Well, the treatment the nurse  sent seemed to help now we have to do follow up care . . . stuffed animals are all in bags ( talk about getting grief  over my doing this ) . . . sheets & jackets have all been washed & fried in the dryer  . . . we have the "comb", ours is plastic but I plan to eventually invest in a metal one . . . & I have a jar of Mayo all ready ( which oldest is not thrilled about this plan, promised to make her a sandwich  with Mayo as well )

During my search  for info on these buggers & cures I came across this site

headlice.org

Reading about Jesse's Project   helped assure me that by us attempting to stay as chemical free as possible is the RIGHT choice

Oh oh oh  before I forget I got to tell you my search also got me to find this company:

Hairfairies.com

Now from what I read they can be a lil pricey but I thought what a outstanding  great idea!!! And apparently they make house  calls too!!!! Wow! Wonder if they go to schools? Think that would be way cool to help inform, educate & bring comfort to children ( and us adults too )

I think one important thing to stress is yep these critters are a pest but it happens . . .  young - old . . . rich - poor . . .popular - not popular . . . so don't judge others but maybe instead try to help each other out

You ever experience Lice?

 Have any handy dandy tips?

If so I would truly love if you took a few moments & shared them?

 

 God, I want to feel special. Help me to realize that it's You who makes me unique, successful, and loved -- and not how I compete. Amen.

 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

~ Psalm 73:26 ESV

 


Have you ever heard of the term "brain fart"? If you haven't Urbandictionary    has a few definitions listed . . . I believe definition #4 that they have listed just about sums up  how I have been performing lately "n. A massive, horrible release of stupid that is often offensive to the senses and may create a social faux pa in some settings. Brainfarts often result in an intense feeling of embarrassment and shame compounded by an inability to explain what the h*** just happened. " . . . . yesterday mornin'  I heated up the oven to cook up  some tater tots to put in Hubs lunch for later that day . . . got the oven toasty, put the taters in & went about my daily business  as I waited for them to cook up . . . got the kitchen all cozy with warmth & the smell of taters ( my major  WEAKNESS ), was feeling rather proud perhaps smug on how clever I was being ( a whole different story  in itself there ) when I go into to remove the pan & place it on the oven I noticed my Soliataire game ( I wrote  about how I love love love  this game in my entry 2nd of Jan ) is sitting up there on the top of a burner . . . thought "hhhmm, that ain't too smart now is it?" . . . welp when I picked it up I answered my own gosh golly gum question for sure  ! My game was too darn toasty & a bit squishy now. . . . yep it melted   ! argh argh argh argh argh!!!!! My son  came in hearing me mumbling a few times "That just ain't right, ain't right I tell you." ( actually it was probably the smell of the taters that got him to come in, just a timing thing happened then ) & asked what happened . . . told him "had a huge ole brain fart moment" & explained to him the situation . . . then I got my ole pity party hat  on as I went on about it being my favorite lil game & what not  . . . he discovered it worked still fine which I was happy  about but not too thrilled about its new found shaped  . . . as strolling out of the kitchen with a plate of tater tots he tossed out over his shoulder . . . "ah so it is a lil bit warpped now . . . kinda like you eh"  . . . now how could I not grin at that comment for a bit  . . . warpped eh? . . . .   awesome  . . . but still I have got to get some Bean-o or something to help me with these brain fart moments  . . . they are starting to get a bit out of control over here   . . .

 God, I praise You for Your mercy. I don't know how You'll help me, but I'm thankful that You will. I'm so glad You're in control. Amen
