If you are a person who uses your hands a lot for gardening, lifting weights, fixing your car, etc., this post might be of interest to you. One of the more common questions I get is regarding chapped, raw or extremely dry hands. And right now we are in the middle of our winter so the dryness…
This morning didn’t turn out like I planned but it actually was a good thing. I was able to do some errands and go for a nice run. We are experiencing unusually high temperatures right now and I love being outdoors when it’s like this. When I run I don’t use earphones so I am able…
How many of you out there liked school? I liked school for one reason…the social end of it. I love people and getting to know them and their backgrounds. Even at the high school level I was overly curious about others. And boy, can I talk. A friend of mine used to call me BM……

This past summer I was invited to a local celebrities house for a luncheon. I was excited to go because she had recently gotten involved in using the essential oils and just loved how they had changed her way of living. There were six of us total and when the meal was served I was bummed…
It’s December 27th and the weather outside is definitely not frightful, it’s 82 degrees out. I just got in from a walk in a local park here called Wright’s Field. It’s 88 acres of flat trails out in the open mixed with steep hills and forest like areas. I love hiking here…it’s just beautiful and the…
