Disinfect

It is time to start thinking about good hygene and tell your children about it because school is here and so are the germs. Make sure that your children are washing their hand often through out the day and before they eat their snack or dinner. And you want to make sure that they are also eating healthy and not touching their face or eyes. Your eyes are probably the worst to touch. Keep the hands away from the face!

The Tantrum

I have been experiencing the tantrum and as hard as it is to ignore it...you just have to. I am actually getting quite upset because my little one is flopping on the ground and I just can't stand that. He hasn't been doing it too much with me but with my mother he has and we all just ignore him. So, hopefully that will work because I can not take this much longer...it is annoying and quite bratty and iit drives me crazy.

Movies

It is nice sometimes to just sit and watch a nice movie with your family. We were watching the fox and the hound and it was a nice movie to just sit and watch with your family. I love family movies. Sure you're not talking or engaging in a game but it is quiet time and you can get some popcorn and just have a nice time just sitting and snuggling together.

Children

Have you ever thought about Acting For Kids? Everyone thinks that their child has a unique talent and most of the time that includes acting. But few make it in the film industry. Millions say that their children could act in the theaters and 100's of thousands will try to pursue that acting career for their child and in some cases push them into something that they really do not even want. And only a select few...the very best will make it. There are other things you can do to get your kids picture out there like a Baby Photo Contest. Everyone wants their baby to win that adorably cute photo contest...and there are many out there but you just have to know where to look. Many times you can just enter the pictures right online. And then I got to thinking about the child actor laws in this country. This is really something that people and parents should read over before they start to act on the career in film or TV with their children. There are some really great sites to get a ton of excellent information on this sort of stuff. And sites that are very user friendly so you will have no problems finding exactly the info that you are looking for.

Vitamin D and Water

Here is another thing I just heard today even though I already knew about this one and i believe I have mentioned this tip...but it is worth mentioning again. Vitamin D will help prevent the flu as well as keeping yourself hydrated with water every single day. And you have to be getting enough sleep...this is why people get so sick...they are stressed out and they are just over tired!

And you don't even have to go to the stores to find the best products out there you can just go right online to find all that you need and be able to compare it as well.

And there are sites that can give you all the sites out there for what you are looking for...skin care, personal care, bath and body products....you can find exactly what sites have the best buys out there at Shop Wiki.

The Beach In August

Going to the beach in august can be a lot of fun but just keep in mind that august is the month that has the highest levels of bacteria in the water. I personally do not like going swimming in August because of this. But you just have to listen to the news and make sure that the beach and body of water that you are swimming in is safe at the time you are going. They usually test the water. Personally, I would not go in water that was not tested regularly for this.

Playing Together

I think it is just so nice to see siblings playing together and getting along. It makes me feel good and I just am more relaxed and happier on those occations. When the kids are fighting I feel my anxiety and I get very frustrated because I don't like playing referee. Sometimes it is an age difference...sometimes it is because they are too close in age and other times it is because they are too many years apart. All kids are different though....it is just a matter of finding that activity that is best for all ages.

Eyes Checked

Get your eyes checked and while you're at it make sure that your kids eyes are checked on a regular basis. My insurance covers an eye exam every 2 years which at this point in my life is fine. Of course if I have that problem then I would just go to my primary care physician to get a referal. I have and eye doctor that has great equiptment. The glaucoma test is a puff of air rather than that blue light that comes towards your eye...I don't like that at all!

Stressed Out and Tired

I am just so stressed out and tired. The kids just don't go to sleep and I have things to do when they get to bed. So the later that they go to bed then the later I go to bed because I have to start later. I get frustrated and very upset and then I am stressed and tired and I have to wake up early to go to work. I am sick or living this rat race of a life....it is just not fair. I need to play the lottery!

Don't Wait Until You're Sick

Do not wait until you are sick to start doing things the right way and to start eating healthy. Start now before the few season even starts because you have to make sure that you immune system will not be suseptible to things like colds and viruses. If you are having soda and candy every day...you are hurting your system since it takes 4 hours for your immune system to recover and start working again from just a can of soda.

Cut the Sugar

Cut the sugar out of your diet. Sugar is just so horrible because it will actually feed on those viruses and even diseases. Sugar is not needed in a diet unless they are natural sugars and you do not even need much of that. If you have a cancer that is one of the first things that doctors should say to start cutting out of your diet..white sugars!!

Sweat is Good

Sweat is actually good...however you really don't want it to stink obviously. Sweating is good for your body and very natural though. You don't want to depreive your body from doing things that are natural like this. It will help release and get rid of the toxins in your body. And this is the best way to do it. Many people do the cleanses and stuff but why not just sweat it out when you are hot. That is your body's way of cooling off ya now.

Get Togethers

It is just so nice to have get togethers. I think it is fun and it is a great way to get together and connect with people. And it can be either a little adult time or perhaps just a little family time. It is always nice in my opinion to have family over to have a game night of some sort. And you don't have to do it very often...but once in a while is really nice. I just had a game night last night and we all just had a blast playing games.

Don't Keep It Bottled Up

It is not good for anyone and it is just not healthy to keep your feelings all bottled up. Because what ends up happening is that you keep your feelings bottled up and one day you just can not contain them anymore and you start screaming... you just blow up at the person..usually your mate. And they have no idea why you are so upset over the fact that they didn't iron your shirt. It is frustrating for both parties and really uncalled for. If you have a problem ... say it then!

Feet

I have terrible feet and I have been putting tea tree oil to my nails but it is just cracking my skin. I have tried everything but it is just so hot that my feet will start to sweat and then I will have athletes feet again. It is an ongoing terrible cycle that I just don't know what to do and I am not about to start taking terrible pills to get better toenails...that would not be very smart to do.

Testing On Children

They are now, in August, just starting to test the vaccines for the swine flu on children. That is just not right. This vaccine has not been around long enough. And they will monitor these children for 6 months. But by then the 100 kids doing the testing will be among the millions of children that get it when they have no idea what will happen to them or their health in 6 months to a year. I just have a bad feeling about this vaccine.

Short Term Solution



When it comes to your car title loans what comes to mind? You need to have that title if you are planning on selling your car or now a days...if you need that fast loan and cash! So where are you going to get yours? Are you going to get that Car Title Loan Los Angeles or do you need the Car Title Loans San Bernardino has for you? What ever you may be looking for you may just want to start right online at Trading Financial Credit. If you are in need of a quick loan and you own your own truck or car then you can apply right online. You will most likely get approved almost immediately. Then you will be able to get that money tha tyou need for what ever reason you need it for. And if you have that bad credit as so many people seem to have these days ... it really does not matter! In fact you'll actualy be able to get that cash within the hour as long as you have a vehical that has the minimal wholesale price of $5000. Sure this is not a long term solution by any means but if you are in need of that quick cash that you know you can pay off rather quickly then this could be your short term solution.

Tumeric

I have been hearing great things about Tumeric. This is a curry spice that is actually in many indian dishes. But the benefits are so great! They are saying that it can help prevent that cytokine storm from happening in your system. I think that eatting the right foods and herbs with some aromatherapy is going to be your best bet on not getting that flu in my opinion. But that is just me. Garlic is great for you as well.

BedFan


It is not fun to experience terrible night sweats. Whether they are menopause night sweats or cancer night sweats...it is not only very uncomfortable but you never get that good nights sleep that one needs and you never let your body completely rest because you are tossing and turning all night. And nothing helps either. You can sleep with the covers of and the ceiling fan on all night but you are still sweating and are extremely hot!

Cytokine Storm

Now people are concerned with things that will trigger a cytokin storm if you have the flu...tomatos, potatoes, red meat, elderberry, honey...there are just so many things. I think that they have no idea what they are talking about and there is so many things conflicting on the internet today it is confusing and people are ill informed. It is horrible. You do you believe...if they are not just giving their opinions then they are out for more money like the vaccine company's...billions of dollors...they are getting so rich with this.

Stocking Up

I think that it is and hope that it is all the media just getting the public all upset and paranoid about this flu situation but it is always a good idea to stock up on things like paper towel and toilet paper. Things that you really can not go without if for some reason the markets clse down for a while and you really don't want to be out when the people are going nuts in the stores.

Stay Out of the Humidity

The humidity is just so oppressive but ya know.....there is some good that comes out of it. Viruses can not live in that humid environment which is why it is just so imnportant to have that humidifier in your home during the dry winter months. Not only will it keep the static away but it will also keep your skin and your throat moist as well as keeping viruses at bay. And personally I find that the cold mist ones are the best. The warm mists keep your room a little warmer but the cold mist ones are more effective.

Great Selection To Compare

I am always looking for great sites out there and I like to find the sites out there that are going to have the best deals. ShopWiki is great because they have all internet stores in their system and not just the ones that are paying big money to get on their directory site. It is a fair site that will show you all that is out there. So as a consumer you are getting a great selection of sites to choose from that not only have what you are looking for but also you will be able to compare prices.

And this site has all sorts of categories to choose from...however recently I have been shopping for health and beauty products. I have been looking for vitamins, skin care and other natural and organic products that are not only good for the environment but that are also good for you and your body. I am just so tired of finding products that claim to be all natural and then you look at the ingredients and there are all these toxins in there? This way you have a lot of sites to check out to get that exact thing that you are looking for

Nebulizers and Diffusers

You want to make sure that you are not getting a diffuser that is going to heat up your essential oils...unless you are just out to get the fragrance of the oils...but in that case do not bother getting the essential oils and just get fragrances. If you want the benefits of essential oils then you want to make sure that you are not heating them up because they will lose their therapeutic qualities.

Carrier Oil

My favorite carrier oil is Sweet Almond oil. I like the way that it feels on my skin and it does not have an odor that is going to change the scent or interfer with the scent of the essential oil that I am blending with it. And it has a lot of great benefits as well...it is great for your skin and has a lot of vitamins like Vitamin E in it. You just have to find the oil base that is best for your skin type.

Playing Music

I have played the piano since I was 5 along with many other instruments and actually got 2 degrees in Music. I think that child music education is just so important. It not only can really bring out talents in children but it helps to stimulate their minds. And music really does carry over to different subjects like math and english. Simple things like rhythm can help with syllables of phonex and the counting and beats of notes can help with math and fractions. Not to mention that it is just a great past time to have. Even if your child never pursues music in life...the benefits are so good. I can help with concentration and memory skills as well. And when a child learns an instrument ... they are a sense of accomplishment.

And if your children is not in school there are so many children music programs out there that you can take advantage of. There are even baby music classes that are great for babies because they are just learning things and their little minds are like sponges just absorbing everything that you are trying to teach them. And it is fun for the parents as well to sit with their child while participating in musical activities.

Floss with your Kids

It is just so important to make sure that you have your children floss on a regular basis. And you can make it fun too. Flossing is a great habit to teach your children to do and there are many products out there to make it more appealing to them. By instilling these good hygene practices you will be giving your children the tools and the knowledge to stay healthy thoughout the childhood and their adulthood.

ylang ylang oil

If you are looking to set the mood then you may just want to get some ylang ylang essential oil. Put it in a vaporizer or a reed diffuser. Or even get an essential oil candle for that ambiance of it. This is a great scent to have in the room to stimulate your libido and your sex drive and it is also a very relaxing scent as well. It has a calming effect as well...so if you are stressed...then have some of these candles in the room with you.

Thyme Oil

I have a vaporizer now and I found that thyme oil is something that you may want to keep around...it will help with sinustitis, mucus congestion, aches and pains, bronchitis, coughs and other respiratory problems. And if you mix with a carrier oil you can use it as massage oil for colds, flu, coughs, bruises, sczema, aches and pains, even obesity and rheumatism.

Men are So Selfish

I am sorry...but men are just so selfish. I work all week just like my husband...I have a 45 minute commute compared to his 75 minute commute...however when I get home I have everything to do there...cook, clean, kids....he sits down and does nothing until he can go to bed at that reasonable hour. And on the weekends he wastes them doing homework for an online course he is taking for leisure of the guitar even though he has a degree in the guitar and this has NOTHING to do with his job or career. I can not even do my work on the computer let alone take a class.

Reed Diffusers

I created my own reed diffusers. I had some really nice vases and I got some of the essential oils that I want and not the useless fragrance oils they over charge for and sell. And I mixed them in Sweet Almond carrier base and put it in the vase with the reeds. It looks nice and I didn't spend a fortune on a useless fragrance product and I will get the aromatherapy benefits of these essential oils.

Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon essential oil is not only a great immune system booster but it is also a great mood builder as well. Not to mention that it helps with headaches and muscular problems. And if you just want to lighten your hair...this is great for that too..but be careful because you are not to just put this essential oil on your skin or hair. It needs to be in a carrier oil like sweet almond or jojoba oil.

The Golden Years

My memere always says that when you get older...they should not be called the golden years because all you do is get slower and have more doctors to go to. There is not a week that goes by where she has a dictors appointment to have to go to. The best time of her life was in her 30's...you still have the energy of your 20's but you are not a kid and you have that home and family. She always tells me to enjoy this time because the golden years are not all that golden.

More Berries

Add more berries to your diet...strawberries and blueberries are the best! And it is important that you start now because now is the time to start building up your immune system. It is almost too last to try to boost your immune system when you get that cold or flu. But if you do it now taking these easy and healthy methods then you may not even get that flu of the cold!

Be Strong

If you are married there is no reason why you have to depend solely on your husband unless of course you want to. There are many people that are very happy in that situation but be prepared to get up and move if they have to. I pretty much do everything myself...I do everything around the house and with the kids and he is just there. And that is fine with me. I really don't need him ... I don't want to ever have to need anyone quite frankly.

Peppermint, Lavender and Eucalyptus Oil for Headaches

If you have a headache then these are the oils for you. Put them in your vaporizer and your reed diffuser and even make a mixture with a grapeseed oil base and massage them on your forehead and the back of your neck. You will feel relief in 1/2 hour and I get terrible headaches..it really does subside the tension and the pain.

Theives Essential Oil

I think that anyone can just make their own theives oil rather than paying a fortune for a few millilters of it. You can get 4 oz of each ingredience and make a lot of it for your use. It is just lemon, cinnamon bark, frankinsence, rosemary and clove oil all mixed together. And these are fairly common ingredients. Put it in a carrier base like sweet almond oil and it makes for a nice massage.

Allergy to Bees

So my cousin has a child that is allergic to bees. Now she is not all that bright but she was going to give her baby of under 1 years old honey and honey products...not good. First of all chances are she could have a reaction to the honey since it is a product of the BEE! And you are not suppose to give a child under 1 years old honey because they could get botulism.

Cousins

Sometimes it is better to keep your distance from family. I have a few cousins and an aunt that are extremely disfuncional. My cousins just rule the roost and they tell my aunt what to do. They are extreme germaphobes and will not leave the house for months at a time but their husbands do the grocery's and as soon as they come home from work they must take a shower. .... Hello....do you think that they are the only one that touched that box of twinkies you just bought...or the meat that has been packaged for you....

Sunscreen in the Shade

Even if you think that it is cloudy and the sun is not beating down on you...it stil is and the harmful rays are still getting past all though clouds that are blocking out the sun's heat. So make sure that you still put on sunblack even though the sun is not out. You could still get quite the burn and skin damage if you down't take simple precautions like this. it only takes 5 minutes to key years off of your looks.

And it is a very nice scent too...you want to ge the essential oils for it though...the candles made with essential oils are nice too.

Trim Your Nails

You want to makes sure that you trim your nails. It is so important to make sure that you hands as well as under your nails are cleaned so trim them down and do not wear those fake nails because they are really terrible and filled and collects a ton of bacterial that could really affect your overall health as well as create infections that could cause major problems with your real nails.

Pedialyte

The clear pedialyte is not good at all. My daughter had to have some and of course she is a little actress anyways but she did not like it at all! The only ones that they like are the frozen pops. So, I always make sure that I have them in my freezer and if they get sick or if they have diarrhea then I give them a pop to replace their electrolyts.

Major Headaches

The sun can give you terrible headaches which is why it is just so imporatnat to wear that hat. But if you are prone to headaches a little lavender essential oil rubbed in your temples and on the back of your neck can just do wonders and it smells very nice. But you want ot make sure that you do not just put the essential oil on.....it has to be in a base too.

Maternity

Sometimes you just have to treat yourself to something nice when you are pregnant. You are feeling big and not pretty and you just need really nice maternity clothes to make you feel better. Due Maternity has the nicest dresses that are stylish too. And they have great items on sale...I love maternity clothing that is on sale because you are only going to wear them for 9 months but at the same time sometimes you just have to go out and get that really nice maternity dress for a special occasion you have to do to. Just make sure that you get the right size - don't get it too small...that was a mistake I made!

When I was pregnant I had to be sure that the maternity clothing that I wore was comfortable and I would give up style for comfort any day. But as a pregnant person you don't need to do that. There are so many great sites online where you can get great maternity clothes that fit great, are affordable and are very stylish. And if you have to work while you are pregnant as I had to...then you have to get clothing that is nice and not just the comfy pregnancy sweats or shorts. My cousin is pregnant for the second time but my sister in law just found out she is pregnant and this is her first....and being a pregnant woman once before I know how appreciative I was when someone would get me an outfit..so that is what I am going to do!

Flossing

Flossing is not just for when you have corn on the cob. You should floss daily and even if you do not like to floss you should teach your children that flossing is very important. The entists actually say the flossing and then rincing with a mouth wash is actually better for your teeth than brushing. And I believe it. And if you have bad breath...start flossing because it can really help out.

Cut Out The Sugar

Try hard to cut out the sugars in your diet. You will actually fell so much better. I have been cuting back over the last 10 days and i actually do have more energy. I have been having more fruits and vegetables. The only thing I notice is that it cost more to stay healthy. And that just is not right. If you want to be healthy you have to be willing to pay for the good foods and I am not talking about fortified and organic stuff...just good old fruits and veggies.

Cedar

Cedar is absolutely fabulous! I wish that i could transform my closet into a cedar closet. Having that cedar scent will actually help you sleep better. Cedar and lavendar make for a great combination as well. There are cedar products that you can buy for your closet but I will just get the essential oils and mix them myself. It is just better to mix your own rather than to buy it premade because you never know what they will mix in it.
