Um.............WHERE?

Just for verification, the projections cream that I'm using is applied on the chest, upper arms, neck, stomach, etc. NOT where one might expect it to be applied.

I was having a conversation with my aunt this evening and she asked about where the cream had to be applied. I figured that if she was wondering, maybe some of you were, too. I never thought to provide this information in the previous post.

Well, either way---------whether you were wondering or not-------I feel better, knowing that at least now you DO KNOW that I'm not applying it THERE everyday.

Okay, you men, now you can once again tell me that this is "way to much information."

On to other things.

Soccer season is officially over here for the PC Soccer Association. One of the girls still has a classic tournament coming up, but no more Saturday games for the little kiddies. It has been so strange as the weather during Fall soccer is normally at least crisp. It was downright (is that a hillbilly term?) hot today.

Speaking of hillbilly-------the kids and I were discussing heritage the other day. I explained that they were 1/4 Mexican because their grandmother (hubbies mom) is Mexican. They asked what heritage they got from me and my answer was "hillbilly." Of course, after the laughs, I told them about my great-grandparents being French from my grandmother's side and German from my grandfather's side. These are my mother's relatives. Now, my father's relatives come from the hills of Missouri and I have always called them HillBillies, not in a rude fashion, but just in a teasing sort of way. They fry tators. Actually, they fry almost everything. The food is good, don't get me wrong. VERY GOOD!! They have names (honest to pete) like Billy Ray, Billy Howard, Aint (instead of Aunt) Virdilla, etc. I kid you not. All the kids have nicknames in my father's family, except one.
Orville was always called Hot Shot. Fred was always called Bullet. EC was Pistol. Roy was just Roy. Why he never received a nickname is a mystery, I guess. How fortunate that I was just always Lisa. I could have been named something MUCH worse, this I know. Thanks to my mother for having no HillBilly in HER blood. HA! My grandfather always has his shirt unbuttoned, showing his chest and belly. This is the only man that would look good this way. This is only because that's how I've always known him. His sons walk around like this, too. They don't look quite as good. I have a cousin who gets in trouble just so he can have three good meals a day and a place to stay, rent free, in jail. I love these people with all my heart. They don't fit my norms or most of societies norms, but they are a part of me and I love them very much. I talk to my grandmother about once a week. Grandpa always hollers from the other room that, "Grandpa loves you, Lise."

THE MIRACLE in HORMONES

I have been taking a natural, bio-identical progesterone cream and a progesterone tablet, daily, for 10 days. I use the cream in the morning and take the pill before bed. Well, how can I say this and really get the message to you-------I FEEL LIKE A NEW PERSON!!!!! I have slept all night, every night, for the last 9 nights. I hadn't slept all night long for probably over a year. I wake up refreshed. I AM NOT A RAGING BEAR to my family anymore. I have the patience and love for them like I used to have when I was a young mother. Bath time and noisy supper times do not send me over the edge. My husband can make jokes and I don't automatically think he's being a turd. I have the energy to go to Wal-Mart. I used to absolutely despise going to the store, because I was so tired. The house has been clean, I've been to the store three times, and I've been shopping twice (to Tulsa and to Wichita) since I've started on this cream. If anyone is suffering like I was, PLEASE, you owe it to yourself to feel good again. Progesterone may not be what you need, but if you feel like I did, then something is not right. Okay, I'm off to do the laundry and dishes. Whoo--Hoo!!!! I'm excited about the housework once again! ha.

I'm Joining In

Thanks to Martha, Martha and to My Domestic Church for the idea of tracking my friendly bloggers. Please, visit http://frappr.com/myspirit and add your information. I'd love to see a whole bunch of "tacs" on my map. Thanks!

ALEXA, WHERE ARE YOU?

Hey, Alexa,
If you stop by, please give me your new blog address. I've lost it and I'm missing you! I'll be waiting to hear. If anyone else has it, please share it with me. Thanks!!!

Naaaaaahh.

Check out this link. Cute, but the horse with the "shhh, shhh, shhh" sound, the first horse, gives me the creeps. It must be something from my childhood.

A GOOD LAUGH

I received this cute little joke from a friend of mine. I hope it doesn't offend anyone. It made my day!

A woman and a baby were in the doctor's examining room, waiting for the doctor to come into the room for the baby's first exam.

The doctor arrived, checked the baby, and being a little concerned about his weight, asked if the baby was breast-fed or bottle-fed.

"Breast-fed" the woman replied.

"Well, strip down to your waist," the doctor ordered.

She did. The doctor squeezed, pressed, kneaded, and rubbed her breasts in a detailed examination. Motioning her to get dressed, he said, "No wonder this baby is under weight. You're not producing any milk."

"I know" answered the woman, "I'm his grandma, but I'm sure glad I came!"

AND...................................How is YOUR Sunday?????
