So today my three year old broke out in hives that migrated from his lower back (just after breakfast) to his torso, chest and head (where they currently still remain.) I'm pretty sure I've figured out what it is (Acute Urticaria) but goodness, does the madness never end?! (We did take him in to a doctor btw. They said there was nothing other than Benadryl to do about it, which we had already done.)Really. Life with children is never truly boring! It's full of mysteries ("What did he eat that could have caused this rash, that offensive aftermath or the malodorous emission?"), intrigue ("Who is responsible for this large gash in the wall?!" or from today, "Who dumped water all over my printer/copier/scanner?!" or the question of the ages, "What in the name of all that is holy is that smell?!") and excitement -- if you consider long nights in the ER and lunchless afternoons wasted away in a walk-in clinic waiting room excitement that is.Oh and pleasures too -- I mean, I swear I am
Origins Never a Dull Moment Scrub$23.50Available at: Macys.comI'm not sure at what point my formerly youthful, gleaming skin took a turn for the dull side. It was somewhere in my mid-twenties, after one too many law school classes and a few too many post-class alcoholic beverages. One day I just woke up with tired looking skin. Nothing dramatic; just a little more tired than I was used to. Determined to nip that nasty little trend in the bud, I set out to find the best scrub I could get my hands on. After much researching and testing, I found my holy grail of scrubs: Origins Never a Dull Moment. I've used this exact same scrub ever since.Origins Never a Dull Moment Cleanser$17.50Available at: Macys.comI can't live without this stuff. The combination of manual scrubbing grains and exfoliating fruit enzymes makes my skin glow like nothing else I've ever tried. I use it faithfully three times a week and my face loves me for it. It has got to the point that I actually crave a good scru
Rod Stewart - Never A Dull Moment (1972)320kbpsEssentially a harder-rocking reprise of Every Picture Tells a Story, Never a Dull Moment never quite reaches the heights of its predecessor, but it's a wonderful, multi-faceted record in its own right. Opening with the touching, autobiographical rocker "True Blue," which finds Rod Stewart trying to come to grips with his newfound stardom but concluding that he'd "rather be back home," the record is the last of Stewart's series of epic fusions of hard rock and folk. It's possible to hear Stewart go for superstardom with the hard-rocking kick and fat electric guitars of the album, but the songs still cut to the core. "You Wear It Well" is a "Maggie May" rewrite on the surface, but it develops into a touching song about being emotionally inarticulate. Similarly, "Lost Paraguayos" is funny, driving folk-rock, and it's hard not to be swept away when the Stonesy hard rocker "Italian Girls" soars into a mandolin-driven coda. The covers -- wh
A few days ago, Steve Murphy, who is the Executive Producer & Host of the MSNBC television show "Insider Exclusive", a Senior Producer of the "SkyRadio Network" (Talk Radio for all of the major airlines) and the Executive Producer & Host of the nationwide radio talk show "Law Business Insider", had a very interesting conversation with our resident celebrity biker, Edward Winterhalder. It seems that Mr. Murphy is extremely interested in interviewing Mr. Winterhalder soon for a segment to be aired on either the "Insider Exclusive" and/or the "Law Business Insider" in early fall.We have also been very busy around here trying to work out the details for the filming of the Pilot for the "Living On The Edge" television reality series, which has now been funded. We hope to start filming in la
Thank you for your concern. I’m finally home safe and sound.
You would think the paint fumes and freezing temperatures would have been the worst of my worries. You’d be wrong.
How about having an anxiety attack during boarding, almost passing out, and needing to have oxygen administered to you? Yup, it happened to me.
I’m still not sure what happened. One moment I was at the boarding door, welcoming the passengers on board. The next my vision started to blur and my hearing got fuzzy. I started breaking out in a cold sweat and feeling nauseated. The only thing I wanted to do was sit down.
What I ended up having to do was lay down in the last row of seats and rest until after the first beverage service. After that I felt so much better. Thank goodness I had the coolest crew. They really took great care of me!
Of course, I can just hear the rumors that will inevitably spread throughout the company, either I’m pregnant or anorexic. Just in case you’re wonderi
Just when I think everything is going to be ok, something else happens. I was upstairs taking a little cat nap when I heard a bang on the wall and was quickly followed by some loud crying. So I quickly rush downstairs to find John holding Ava and when I saw her in pain I thought I was going to cry myself. She must have been trying to reach for something on her infant car seat (which was on the floor), when it tipped over causing her to fall and bump her nose against our wall. So I call the doctor's again (they're going to think I do this to her on purpose!) and they just told me to monitor her and maybe give her some Tylenol. She's breathing and eating ok. I'm just worried her little nose is going to be crooked forever. Or worse, some cartilage might be stuck in her brain! I never had to call the doctor's office this many times with Cameron. In fact, I don't remember him getting into these kinds of mishaps.And it just so happens that I still need to take the kids' birthday pictu
