Wyndsong Writes

A couple of weeks ago, a friend & fellow homeschooler, mentioned that she was just getting home from her Co-op with a ton of fruits and veggies for a GREAT price.  Of course I asked her where she got them and how much, and if there was any link she could send me.  She sent me the link to Bountiful Baskets Food Co-op.

I live in Las Vegas, NV where the summer sun is extreme. My son, who never burns, got his very first sunburn this summer because of how hot the sun is out here. He gets his darker skin coloring from my side of the family, but not from me directly. I am very pale, with lots of freckles and I burn VERY easily. I also have very oily and sensitive skin. I hate using most sunscreens and lotions because of my skin type. So when Neutrogena asked me to try out and review their new Neutrogena UltraSheer® Liquid Daily Sunblock, I was excited but skeptical. Could it really protect my skin from the sun in Las Vegas and keep me from feeling like I had my own personal oil spill?

Say hello to our newest little addition to our family.  Meet queen!    She’s an Italian Greyhound.  Isn’t she just the cutest thing you’ve ever seen!?!  She’s staying with us for a while.  A friend of ours is going through some very hard times and couldn’t keep his dogs with him.  So we offered to take one of them in until he gets back on his feet.

I know I’ve been totally neglecting my blog lately.   I think part of it was because I’ve been feeling very blah lately.  Partially because of the heat here in Las Vegas (we’ve been having excessive heat warnings for the last week.  It’s been getting over 115 here), and partially because my “day job” has been getting very busy.  But really it all comes down to the reality that I have just been lazy.  I know you’re shocked, me lazy!  LOL!

Boy this has been a busy week… and yes, I know it’s only Tuesday!  This has been the first chance I’ve had to blog since last week.  Which is good on a lot of levels, but not so good for blogging.

Is there some sort of Mom Code?  If there is, I’m thinking about breaking one of the rules in the code.  LOL!  If there is a code, and if this is part of it, that is.

When I was in high school, friendship bracelets were all the rage.  I can remember sitting in class, with a safety pin pinned on my jeans, a knot of embroidery thread attached to the pin, and me making these bracelets through out the day.  The type of bracelets I made were more like macrame than weaving though.  So mine always came out with the same pattern, diagonal stripes.  Only the colors were different.  But I still made them constantly.  I think I wore 2 or three all the time and gave them to all my friends.  I wore them until they basically rotted off from all the showers… cuz of course I never took them off.  LOL!
