It's FRIDAY!! YIPPPEE YAH HOOO!

http://bfields8138.avonrepresentative.com/

First things, first---  My sister in-law, Becky sells Avon!  Feel free to click on the site above and shop to your heart's content!  They have some really nice things for the summer..check it out.  There really isn't a sweeter woman to buy from; and I'm not just saying that because she's my husband's younger sister either.  She is a hard working and devoted single mother!  Her website is also listed to the lower left of this journal under Favorite Sites.  Check it out! 

Thanks to all of those who had suggestions about my medication "dilemna" for my mom.  My lady boss just can't believe the hoopla--last summer she went to Mexico and Canada with a purse full of drugs herself (she was going through chemo at the time) and no one ever once asked her about the drugs in her bag.  The prescription labels had her maiden name on them; her passport had her married name to boot.  She even suggested that I could put the medicine in a empty aspirin bottle.  I think I'm just stressing a little too much over nothing.  My mother has always traveled with medications, and she had never once been asked to show her passport for them, or even asked to see the meds at all.  I was able to get some free samples for one of my mother's medications, (thanks to Mary) so, that is good anyway--1 less medicine bottle to carry with me.  I even looked into Fed Ex'ing (thanks to Dawn), and I'll still think about that one.  It would involve having someone fetch it through the airport there through customs, but it sounds so involved, I don't even think it would be worth the trouble.  Customs there at the airport can be tricky sometimes.  I do have an ex brother-inlaw (my ex-husband's older brother) who is a policeman who works at the airport sometimes, and another ex-ex brother in-law (he used to be married to my ex-husband's sister, but ran off with a much younger stewardress) who works for the airline, but I can't really depend on them to help me.  Oh well..  The worse than can do is hold the medicine, and my mother can claim it there.  Again, I think I'm just stressing a little too much over nothing.  I'm going to stop thinking about it; starting NOW.  :)   

OKAY.  I feel better already.  Deep breath...exhale...

This morning, after strapping my youngest in his car seat, I saw my neighbors, The Stewarts off and running to begin their morning walk, with sunglasses and bright smiles on...  Driving off, I saw even more people, out on their morning walks..  I'm soooo jealous of these people.  Sure, they are all much older than me, but damn..what I would do just have a free hour in the morning to take a nice walk!  By the time I get home, it is so hot still outside, and it doesn't cool off until like, 7:30 or 8 pm.  Last night I went outside around 9 pm, and I was soooo tempted to take a walk outside.  I may do that tonight..  Well, may be not tonight.  I'm  bringing my mom down tonight so she can see the grandchildren before she leaves Sunday.  She also needs her nails done, and she thought may be my daughter could do them.  She also wants her toe nails done because all her shoes are open toed.  Oh, and she needs her hair trimmed---might have to go to JcPenny again.  Um..  I think my walk around another mall will have to take the place of my walk outside. 

It's FRIDAY!!!

Haaaaaaaaaa.  I looked at the comments & saw Cin's name & then somehow skipped up to the 3rd comment: I used to sell Avon. I was even a certified beauty advisor   & I THOUGHT IT WAS CIN hAAAAAA.  I don't know why I found that so hysterical. It just, well, isn't HER.  ~ Mary

i love Avon but only buy one thing ever and it takes a year to use and that is an acne scrub. I pray this whole med thing goes smoothly...hell, they let people into the US with TB, why not let your mom into Portugal with some needed meds. I hope you got your walk in.
love,lisa
