Plants you can't stand the smell of
Comments (54)I planted Sea Holly from seed, thought it looked nice in the picture, and of course, the name, Sea Holly, sounded nice. I was standing near the flower bed where I had planted it, one day, and I thought, did an animal die under my giant hosta, or something? Couldn't figure it out, until I finally went over and smelt the Sea holly, OMG, it really stunk. And it's not that pretty either, I'll soon be getting rid of it, I hope!...See MoreI can't STAND this new Puppy/Budweiser Ad it's so cute!!
Comments (19)I do like the Twins/Olympic ad! In a way however, the powerful REAL "Human drama" in that story is a little "lessened" in a way because it's for only a "beer". Can't put my finger on exactly WHY, but there's a slight disconnect for ME anyway. This the original 9/11-Clydesdale ad. Aired only once on TV. When the music changes & the team starts to kneel....oh my... Faron Here is a link that might be useful: 9/11 Clydesdales......See MoreOh the smell... I could hardly stand it
Comments (25)I do use dryer sheets,, always Bounce Outdoor fresh. I wear a lot of Tee shirts or sweat shirts, and I like the feel that Bounce gives them. I am not aware of any "fragrance" from it. Maybe I should ask a couple friends if they notice it. Oh,no, that wouldn't work because some of them are so steeped in perfume! That is what bothers me.... too much perfume! The scents in the grocery aisles don't bother me, maybe because I buy the biggest box of Cheer and Bounce they have, which means I don't go down that aisle often. I could always tell when my neighbor was doing laundry because of the heavy perfumy dryer exhaust smell. She has passed on and I never notice any scents now that I have a new neighbor....See MoreI don't mind the procedure, it's the prep I can't stand, Colonoscopy.
Comments (29)When I curse someone these days I tell them May your toilet back up during your colonoscopy prep! The Suprep was recommended and highly pushed when I had mine but at over $125 co-pay I said no and went with the alternative, Go-Lytely which was something like $10 co-pay. That was a LOT of volume to drink (and I debated maybe I should have just paid for it) but for me it wasn't taking the stuff that was the worst. I had lemon drops I'd take after taking the stuff and it came with a lemon flavor packet. They said you could mix Crystal Lite or something with it, but I just used the packet provided. What was worst for me, and I didn't even think of it before was the various pain I was in from sitting there so long. I could hardly walk afterward. I know now to take some pain pills before and let them go to work. I also took the advice I read somewhere to cut out meat and things from the diet about 5-7 days before. I ate a lot of Rice Crispies and stuff to be on the lighter end and FWIW they said I did an excellent job of prep for the procedure. They wanted me back in 3 years. Other things that were suggested, comfy toilet paper and Vaseline. Big mistake: Aloe Vera gel. WHEW, never again! And having the computer there to distract me was helpful. I also started a little early with the prep and next time might start a little earlier yet. Not that I want to prolong it but when I got to the point of gagging on the stuff, I could take a little break, drink a little water and move on. (Was that a pun?)...See MoreKristine LeGault 8a pnw
