I am in the out-dated doctors office. I have my two year old in my lap with the sniffles. She doesn’t understand why her throat hurts. She is tugging at her ears. The nurse comes over with a “stick” and wants it under her arm or in her mouth. Nope, Not gonna work. She screams,” Don’t want it, Don’t Want it Mommy HELP. Yes I am serious. Yes this happened to me. Yes, I had to hold her arms still and her still with force furthering making her mad as hell.
Scenario 2.
Through the monitor, I hear her sniffling and coughing. This is just the beginning of something horrible. I go upstairs and feel her head. Is her head warm because she is snuggled up with her bear, or does she have a fever? So , I either have to wake her up stick a reader in her mouth, or her bottom. Neither are gonna go very well with her. I wake her up and try the underarm, and she pukes all over me. Yes this has happened to.
Having children is a life ride for sure. I want to say a big thanks to Exergen. Exergen is the maker of a temporal thermometer. A gentle stroke of forehead capturesnaturally emitted heat from skin over the temporal artery.Red LED lights and soft beep indicatecorrect scan . It takes 1,000 readings per second,electing the most accurate
Arterial Heat Balance computes the correct temperature.
That basically equals how come my doctors office and ever doctors office doesnt have one? All you do is slightly stroke the forhead and it gives the temperature. No more waking up babies. No more screaming toddlers.
I tried this on Kennedy, and I sung a song while I did it, and no screaming.
If you would like to try this out you can! I am hosting a contest for a thermometer. All you need to do is follow these simple rules.

To my Father…
Im really glad you know that moonshine hustlin is illegal now. LOL. Im so happy you got text messaging for one month, because I had jaw surgery and that was the only way we could communicate. I thank you for giving me the gift of not taking crap from any body, but may have given me anger management issues. You did give me the gift of loving to read. Thanks for not spanking me to hard when you found me under the covers reading nancy drew at 2 in the morning with your stolen flashlight you had been searching for baout 3 weeks. I really loved all the boy toys you got me when I was little, it has given me the love of electronics. Thanks for the 4 wheeler, but not the broken ankle that came from it.
Dad, You are awesome. You are my best friend. I love you!
Im so excited! I have some new reviews coming, products and books. I am also going to be sponsoring some giveaway!! YAYAYAY. Keep tuned. Keep reading about my crazy life and all these random things I find. Take a minute and leave me a comment. Comments mean a lot to a blogger. It lets us know, you like us, and give us more mojo for writing.
You have to watch this Youtube commercial. This product has saved me trips to the shrink and saved me on meds. My son has been grounded off the computer for about 4 months now. Since then he has found ways to sneak on the computer. I really wasn’t sure what he was doing . The fact that I had no clue, and an 11 year old who says, “i dont know to every question I ask,” scares me.
PG Key has saved my nerves! You simply install the PG key. When PG Key is removed, the computer operation is suspended - this allows parents to control when their child can use the PC. You can also load time on PG Key like a cell phone and limit how many minutes a day the computer is used. When PG Key is in, 10 technologies are engaged, including site blocking and filtered searching. They let a parent create a safe Internet environment for the child. PG Key automatically records up to 60 hours of computer activity that can be reviewed just like watching a movie - sites visited, chats, e-mails, everything. It is the perfect parental monitoring gadget!
This should be everywhere in the stores by now!
Anyway, My son was playing online games with who knows who claiming they are his age. He was also downloading software that probably has malware in it.
It is a really breakthrough product. It is simple to install, plug in and go! Try the Pg key today!
I love music. I love all sounds. Well there are a few genres of music i could scratch out completely, to each is own.
When i was little I remember listening to Patsy Cline. I’m not sure if it was with my mother or grandmother, but im sure both of them like her equally. Patsy Cline will always remind me of the country and the smell of cigarettes. Grandma smokes like a freight train still and mom quit all together!
Now Stevie Nicks is another story. I could write a huge post about her. She is stunning and mystifying at the same time. Stevie’s cd could be the soundtrack of my whole life and my friends life. I was very fortunate to see Fleetwood Mac in concert with my father. I think of my dad could have picked up her hand and walked her off stage, he would have.I would have greatly accepted her as part of my family. She is amazing. I remember sitting at the top of that hill with a friend, burning the tips of my fingers with a lighter, singing with her. I promise you a tear or two rolled down my cheeks. Thxs for those memories.
Janis Joplin is also on my top lists. When she sings, you know it is coming straight up from her and out it goes like the wind. She gives it all she has and more. She has the edgy,I smoked 2 packs a day voice. No one can be janis. I secretly sing janis to my daughter when she is sad. Me and Bobby McGee is one of my favorite songs to sing. If I could just get my voice to that range. Janis, you did take a little piece of my heart, and did you ever get that Mercedes Benz? Goss rest Janis’s soul.
Sometimes you find a little diamond in the rough. That is the whole point of this blog. Diane Birch is a little known artist , I have had the pleasure of listening to. She is a mix of all my favorite artists and more. Go check her out!

I have two wonderful friends. You know who you are. I met one of you 4 years ago. I loved the intricate rings you had on your fingers. How many guys you know have unusual finger rings? We quickly became friends. One night desperate to show you a good time in this po-dunk town, I took you to a club. It was boring, we drank alot. So at 3am, I dragged you to a strip club only because of the free alcohol. (locals know where I went).. Oh , how the drinking begin out of kegs, and the music played. You had your friend with you, and you danced with me, and we drank for awhile. You and your friend took me home, and I went to bed. Monday at work, I meet you again. I was single then. You are a fine and handsome male. We started to hang out.(you introduced me to Ruby Ann Box car trailer trash series cookbook, I may forgive you one day)
1 years later…
i still know you. (if i have my time sequences out of order, im sorry, BTW, you know how my memory is ). I start looking through my mexico picture trips. The ones on the catamaran , me in my bathng suit. The sexy one of my BFF in her bathing suit. Beautiful pictures of everything. Somehow, YOU WERE IN EVERY FREAKING PIC ALMOST AND I DIDNT NOTICE UNTIL THEN! ) How ironic. You answer my calls all the time, or you always returned them. You were always there.
2 years later…
I meet the man of my dreams. I get married. You helped me move into my new house and you helped the hubby too. You helped me hang up pictures in my house, because the only pics I ever hung were band posters. You taught me how to properly fold a fitted sheet. (i still try to this day and it dont work for me sorry). We go on shopping trips to Raleigh. You took me through the entire wine store and explained to me all the different wines. One the way back and forth to computer stores, wine shops, electronics or whatever, you shared your life experience. You listened to me bitch.You may have never known you have taught me things my mother or father did not, and you had the best way of telling them as you smoked your menthols.
You taught me to love only a chocolate cheesecake made by you, only from imported Chocolate from New York. You renewed and showed me the ways of Dove Dark chocolates. ( Do You still keep stashes of them).. One day I pulled up in your yard, with your car flavor of the week, and you had some of the shortest shorts I have ever seen. Who cares right?
I have a little girl. You come visit me in the hospital, but im breast feeding her and you left because of that. You came because i asked you to. You answer my calls because you want to. You brought me bread because you knew I loved it. You made me try all kinds of things because you knew somehow I would like it. Maybe I only liked it because I trusted you?
You baked me the most wonderous cheesecake, I have ever eaten in my life. If anyone knows me, they know I LOATHE cheesecake. Sorry, no matter many times you tell me, I will never make it. It will never be the same and it will taste good in a blender. I will hoard it with my life.
I was going to surgery. You took me to my visits. You laughed about the quirky doctor. Before surgery, you spoil me with that dayum cheesecake, thanksgiving.
You take me to my follow up appt, you ate taco bell in the truck, I ate cole ravioli in the parking lot. You shared me the most equisite chinese market, I have ever seen.
Im sorry , I did not go to the flower show. I will always reflect on that time, and I will forever regret. Thank god, you talk to me , I hope I have your forgiveness. That day, I just could not go. I felt so bad.
Im raining tears down my cheeks as I write this. You are moving . Your somewhere between here and florida , your new home.
Im so glad you will be somewhere, where you and you know who will be happy. You both deserve it. Just know, you mean more than I could express to you face to face. You taught me alot more than my paternal parents.
I feel good though, your new life will begin, and im pretty sure you will pick a lonesome soul like me to educate.
There are few writers in the world that can truly catch your attentiion. I used to loved to write. My teachers in school, would always get mad at me for writing endlessly into any notebook, I could find. My friend and I would walk barefoot to the drug store and seek out the best writing pens and tablets they had. It was certainly our prizes for the day.When I got into high school, it became familar to the teachers, I was sincerly ADD and just let me write and my grades would be excellent and I would be able to pass all their tests.
Writing is a gift. Some people can write really well. It takes a special person to grab you from the start like a drug and get you addicted.
Let me Welcome you to GypSy-JOnga. She inspires you to make your life bigger. Think outside the box. She shares her experiences through life.
My favorite quote thus far is,
I cannot save anyone. I cannot even save myself.
That role is saved solely for God.
Gypsy Jonga.
Gypsy, you are one of those writers that will inspire me for a long time. You have inspired me to come out with more of my writing. Along time ago, someone took that out of me. Thanks to Sunshine-Kittens and you, I have been brought out of my creative shell.
Are you a clean freak like I am? It may surprise my family im like this now. When I was a teenager, my room was a disaster. I ate dirt and ran barefoot everywhere I went. I think back and I’m surprise im alive amongst other things. (big blog later maybe)
My hubby travels alot for his job. His family lives about 3 hours away. Both of us frequent hotel rooms. Also, sometimes a decent hotel room, may not be so decent. I always no matter what star the room is, bring my own sheets. I have my own pillow cases. I bring shoes to walk around in the room. I know the hubby does the same thing. His job does not always put him in the nicest hotels.
I am always freaked out, I am gonna get some type of bedbug, or disease of someone’s foot, or critters on me. (EWWW) I may be a little over sensitive. I have two children to think about to. The world back then, or I would like to think was a little bit cleaner, and I think the folks were too! I mean you never know what you can get. You can go around barefooted anymore!
I have found a least one product to ease at least one of my fears!
A bed bug encasement!!!
Yu use it to keep bedbugs from traveling with you! you can Use BugZip™ to encase clean clothes and inside drawers to protect from bed bugs while you prepare for and live through treatment even if you have been infected.
Bed bugs are often found in rooms where there were no visible signs of bed bugs on the mattress. So when you go in the hotel rooms , you THINK are 4 Star, it may not. YOu can still get bed bugs.
Just because you don’t see them, doesn’t mean they aren’t there.
This is truly an unique product. My family uses it. We love it!
I had a very good night tonight. I met with some old friends and met with some new friends. I had a blast. I discovered rock band, girl made liquor flasks, the wind blowing through some gardenias hinting at my noise on a summer night. *YUM*
The conversation was very good. I learned I’m a hippy, and I took that as a compliment.!! We talked about weight loss supplements, how to make ourselves better and healthier.
I want to thank you all for the good time. I needed to get out of the house. Bigger and Better things are happening to me. !
