Shit! I Found a Lump!

2018-06-21T23:07:00.000-07:00

I think I found two actually. My Dr 's appointment is just over 12 hours away. I can't sleep. I keep reading the same symptoms of breast cancer over and over. I keep thinking, nah I don't have it, I don't have that symptom or that one. Then I freak out and see myself in all of them.
I'm trying to be chill about it. Shit! Did a breast cancer commercial really just come on the tv that I'm not really watching? Wth?! Ok freaking out again. ... calm your tits Lucy! Oiy!
I know I'll probably have to have a mammogram. The same one my Dr has been reminding me to schedule for a year. The same one i kept putting off . Now look! It'll be fine. I'll be fine.
Reminding myself not to think negative. Don't think of chemo. Which scares the piss out of me. I have always been a little on the anxious side, and my mind always goes to the worst case scenario, and dinnertime even improbable. So I'm trying to keep my mind occupado.
I've been busy with the kids, and errands, and housework etc. The cats. My Abba kitty is always with me. I love her. Does she know something I don't? No, silly she's just a cat. Not a magical being. Right?
She's staring at me. I think she knows.
My hand goes to the lump in my breast randomly. I know exactly where it is. Does it hurt? Is it bigger? Is it smaller? Did it swell? Did it move? Ugh!!! Freaking out again.
How do you not freak out just a little from time to time? Am I overreacting? Am I being dramatic? Is it normal? I just want to sleep so I can wake up and get ready for my appt. After I take my daughter to work.
My favorite food network show isn't even a distraction tonight. Why am I freaking out so bad tonight and not the week before my appt? Is it because tomorrow I could potentially get life changing news? I think its life changing regardless. Right? I mean every woman should be in tune with her boobs. Most importantly, listen to your Dr!! Get that mammogram!!!
Kicking myself.

SheaMoisture Baby Bar Soap

2012-10-03T16:15:00.001-07:00

I received a complimentary SheaMoisture Baby Bar Soap in my Naturals VoxBox from Influenster, to try out and review. My daughter actually has eczema around her nose, and I started her on using this soap to see if it would help. Guess what?! After two days of using it twice a day, her eczema around her nose cleared up!! She is happy as can be and we are in love with this product now! We will definitely be loyal customers from now on! A huge thank you to SheaMoisture Baby Bar Soap and to Influenster for giving me the opportunity to try this amazing product! We like how it suds up really well, and it smells great too! It leaves our skin feeling so soft after using it, not tight and dry. Your skin just feels clean. An awesome natural product for those who are looking for organic and natural products for their families. You can find this product and others at their website: http://www.sheamoisture.com/

CleanWell Natural Hand Sanitizer Wipes

2012-10-03T15:54:00.002-07:00

I received a complimentary sample of the CleanWell Natural Hand Sanitizer Wipes from Influenster in my Naturals VoxBox, to try out and review. You can find the CleanWell products on their website here: http://www.cleanwelltoday.com/ Let me first say that these wipes smelled great! Not that strong alcohol or mediciney smell that some wipes have. The actually contain no alcohol. As you can see from the picture, I used it on my sons hands and his face. He had just had a chocolate ice cream bar and made a huge mess with it. I cleaned him up with the wipe. It worked like a charm. He liked the smell, and it left his skin soft. Not sticky or tight with dryness. A good natural product for anyone.

The Many Uses of Ivory

2012-07-10T22:29:00.002-07:00

I will just say, that this complimentary bar of Ivory soap came in my Mom Voxbox from Influenster, and it came at just the perfect time. It was kismet really. I was able to get the perfect test use out of it for review. It sat unopened for awhile. Then my eldest son had an eczema break out on his face, and this bar of Ivory soap was just the perfect thing! It was all he could wash his face with, because it did not further irritate the skin on his face at all. It was perfect! Like it was meant to be! He used it all week, and his face has cleared now. It was gentle and it was cleansing while not being irritating. That is what I really liked about this product. That he was able to use it and it was truly beneficial because it was so pure and gentle. It helped clear his skin. There are plenty of other uses for Ivory soap as well... you can use it on your entire body if you have sensitive skin. It is a good stain remover for clothing. You can use it as a laundry soap as well, by making flakes. Here is more detailed info on this product: "Free of dyes and heavy perfumes, Ivory provides a simple, yet effective clean for the entire family (without breaking the bank!). Ivory bar soap is 99.44% pure (it floats!). Beyond using it as a body cleanser, many of Ivory's loyal users – not to mention a few celebrities – swear by Ivory as their beauty secret. In fact, many consumers use Ivory bar soap as a facial cleanser. It provides healthier, smoother and more even-looking skin. Also, its versatility makes it an effective laundry soap (just chip soap flakes into the washer) as well as a spot stain remover on your clothes (including delicate items). Ivory bars can even be used for a fun soap carving project with the family! " You can find Ivory at Walmart and Target stores, "as well as any major grocery, dollar and drug store. A 10-pack of Ivory bar soap retails for around $4.49 (bath bar size)." You can't beat that price for all that soap! It is an incredible savings!

Venus & Olay Razor

2012-03-21T15:16:00.001-07:00

Hi again!

I have another product review from my Love VoxBox from Influenster. (www.influenster.com)

It is for the Venus & Olay Razor.

I have been using it for a couple of weeks now. I love it!
What I like most is the 5 blades. Because they shave so close and make my legs so smooth! With the warmer weather coming up, that is a must! You can check it out at www.gillettevenus.com

Here are some of the product deets:
"Venus’ five-bladed razors shave you close and adjust to women’s curves for a smooth and comfortable shave, even over tricky shaving areas like knees and ankles.
Olay Moisture Bars contain skin-enhancing elements found in Olay products: Petrolatum helps lock in skin’s moisture for less dryness and Glycerin helps offer that goddess glow! Just wet the razor to release a light lather – no separate shave cream required.
As with most Venus razors, new Venus & Olay also features a rounded, pivoting head designed for women’s curves, and a soft-grip ergonomic handle for confident control, even in wet and soapy environment"

Where to Buy: any of your mass retailers will sell them.

A refillable Venus & Olay with one replacement cartridge sells for approximately $8.99-$10.99. Packages of three replacement cartridges are available for about $14.99 - $19.49.

T-Shirt Hell

2010-02-03T10:14:00.000-08:00

Bought a t-shirt off of their site for Christmas. It was for my son, he got rave reviews for it lol. They have lots of really funny shirts. Not to mention that one of my favorite authors, Laurell K. Hamillton, who writes the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Novels, and the Meridith Gentry Novels, was sporting one of their t-shirts also on her picture site. Cool cool.

Wasting Time....but having a good laugh!

2009-12-10T12:11:00.000-08:00

So I should be doing something creative, or even watching my two year old more closely, but instead I have been glued to this guys site....David Thorne
I have been laughing my ass off reading his blogs or whatever they are....Oh I am definitely a fan of his now. He is great. If you get a chance check him out. You won't be sorry.
Ok, I have to go see what that big bang was from my living room....hope the two year old didn't knock the Christmas tree down....
