Erythema Nodosum? Suspected Illness Decides to Drop-In on Life

Image
I wake up one day in my bed wondering randomly, “Okay what is today going to have in store for me?” Instinctively, I must have just known something was wrong. It was a Thursday.    I was in my backyard cleaning up pine, branches, trimmed up the lilacs and raked the yard. Like any other day I do any yard work, I took my allergy medicine.    I was okay with the exception of the regular hot shower needed afterword. Friday progressed as any other day but I started to feel achy, more than normal.    Maybe it was the cold from Autumn setting in.     Who knows?!    Get some rest and maybe Saturday will be better. When my days turned excruciating began when standing on my feet.    When a person lives daily with extreme amounts of pain, pain really doesn’t have very many levels of severity anymore.    But oh my knees. They just hurt but I just figured maybe because of the cold. Picture for effect “erythem...

Fun Pumpkin Patching on a Budget



I was able to have some at home fun on a next to no budget idea with the children.
Ingredients for this Project:


*Mini Gourds of your choice
*Variety of Nail Polish of your choice- PICK ANY COLORS YOU LIKE (Dollar Tree works for this)
*A large bowl that is either easy to wash or one you can toss out.
*Water- Fill the Bowl just enough to cover the height of the gourd when you dip

...and Nail Polish Acetone for the cleanup after.  It will get messy and sticky


I happened to have these items on the shelf already so I only needed a few mini gourds to get started.











There is nothing special to this easy fun with the kiddos.  Pick your colors, any at all.  Drizzle the color in any pattern or design in the water you like.  You will dunk the gourd in the water THROUGH the polish and the colors will stick to the gourd on their own.  You can play around with the colors and designs.  Your imagination is the only limit you have.  Enjoy!










PROJECT RESULTS:








Easy fun for the family.  The natural fun and excitement of the kids dunking their pumpkins makes it so much better than just trying to find something interesting to do.

End Results:  Kids named them Vampire, Camo, Barbie and Monet

I'm sure you can figure out which are which...Happy Pumpkin Patching!

America Forgot about Missing Baby Amiah

Image
It wasn’t so long ago that the nation was rattled by the disappearance of one Caylee Anthony, a little toddler who turned up missing from her Florida home. A toddler that would later be discovered by a utility worker and her mother charged with murder, along with child endangerment, concealing the whereabouts of her child, among many other charges.  Networks would become flooded with trial coverage that could only be compared to the infamy of the OJ Simpson Trial of the 1990s.  Casey Anthony, due to what I can only describe as a horribly flawed and crooked prosecution and tainted evidence, would only be found guilty of child endangerment by a jury of 12.  A jury of twelve would later confess they did believe Casey Anthony killed her little girl but the prosecution just did not prove their case.  Casey Anthony would receive time served credit and a short spurt of time before being released from prison, only to disappear into the night while America was sleeping. ...

Barments are the new Military Defense to Oust & Ostracize Civilian Spouses

So the New Year is here and many are wondering a few things about this blog. I've been working on reformatting the design and will be releasing that here shortly. I've also been dealing with insurmountable numbers of messages coming from spouses and family members of military service members declaring they feel their lives and all they have endured need to be exposed. The nay-sayers have attempted to try to shut this blog down but the problem for them is that this blog is also protected by both Freedom of Speech AND Freedom of the Press as a Freelance Blogger. I won't say something unless I can back it up. Now maybe some of my opinions are not popular but my aim for this blog is not just to expose corruption and wrong doing on Americans and Families, but also to show that life is doable. We have to simply rise up and take control and TAKE CUSTODY of our lives to live the best possible way we can. A New Year is a new bang. So I am back releasing some very heinous acti...

When Is It No Longer Safe To Be A Man In America?

In a world of climate change, I am beginning to wonder, is chivalry safe anymore?    I’m not talking about Climate change of our environment and gases and ozone of our atmosphere but instead this lingering stench in the air that I see when women want chivalry, yet when it happens, chivalry comes at a fault. (Image Source:  https://www.theguardian.com/money/blog/2008/sep/09/workandcareers ) Once upon a time, it was just smart to not be in rooms alone with women who were not your wives.    It was a respect held for your loved to one to have no mistake about what did NOT happen when in that space alone. Once upon a time, it was just “the right thing to do” to stop and help someone stranded with a flat tire. Now we have people accused of rape or even worse, and not always coming out true. Once upon a Time, if you found a woman who appeared intoxicated or under the influence, it was just the right thing to do to walk them home safely or give them...
