Better Done By A Professional!?!?!...

So the ped-egg looks AWESOME on the TV commercial..I purchased a similar product. Revlon makes the one I purchased..it is called the PEDI-EXPERT and it's pink!

Okay just to get the idea of how it works. In case you haven’t seen the commercials. The device has a grater on it that you use to “shave” calluses off your feet. The “foot shavings” are collected in a plastic container. The “grater” snaps on to the plastic container. Once you have finished the process, you snap the grater off the foot shaving collector and empty it. FYI…the grater is very sharp. Look at the picture doesn't the grater look sharp?!?

Well the other day I’ve finished the process of shaving the calluses off my feet. I’m in the process of snapping off the grater to empty the foot shavings and it slips, puts a HUGE gash my thumb…I thought I was going to need stitches. Now I’ve figured out of how to snap it off without gashing my fingers open…works better. I’m just glad I know that last time I had a tenuous shot…again I do stupid things!

The product works great...my feet are callus free..if you have any safety questions regarding the Pedi-Expert send them my way!

Migraine, Migraine, Migraine...

Well I've had a migraine almost all week. I missed two full days of work.

It is funny when non-headache people try to talk to headache people. I think my favorite comment is.."my mother, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, cousin, sister, nephew's best friend's brother has migraines....and you know what they do fill in the blank and it works for them every time, you should try fill in the blank". I just smile and say, "Maybe next time!". When what I really want to say, "Is my head hurts...please just stop talking to me!"

A comment that drives me CRAZY...I'm just not a headache person...I have no idea what that would be like...I'm sorry. I also enjoy the folks that tell me that they have really bad headaches and take Ibuprofen, it works...hhhhhmmmm!!!

I'm venting and whining a little! I'm feeling much better today! I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Chance Of Snow...

I know that it is still Feburary but I thought we were done with the cold weather. There is a chance of snow this weekend! What that heck!?!?!

Adventures In Waxing...

Just in case you are wondering this isn't a story about a bikini wax gone wrong but it is about a waxing gone wrong. I do stupid stuff sometimes. Most women I know have some unwanted facial hair I am no different. Sure I could pay a professional to do the removal but I do it myself. Here is a picture of a product I use.

So this weekend I am using the product pictured removing some unwanted facial hair all was going well. I have these hairs that grow on the tip of my nose, they stick straight up and drive me crazy. So I decided they needed to go. So I get the wax strip ready, put it on the tip of my nose and I ripped it off. Well I almost most passed out. It hurt so bad...I saw stars...My nose is still red and I pulled a little skin off my nose. I don't know what happened. Unfortunately this isn't the first issue with waxing...once before I pulled the skin off part of my lip...thought I would have learned my lesson BUT no! So the next time you see me if I have a little extra powder on my nose you know why!!!

I do recommend the produce I use very handy. My issues aren't with the product it is with the user!

This Week In Review...

So this week..let's see...well WARMER WEATHER has finally made its way to middle Tennessee. I'm looking forward to a weekend with temps in the 60s. Today has been beautiful. I had to run a couple of errands for my boss this afternoon and I was glad to be out and about.

I went to a new doctor on Wednesday. I found an ob/gyn here in Franklin and she is great. She listened, she asked questions, made suggestions and asked what I thought. She made some suggestions about the endometriosis and the migraines. Her office is doing some blood work to check on a few things. I should have those results back next week. I think with her help and the help of my new PCP...I'm in good shape. I think there is something to be said about women doctors taking care of women...they know. When I told her certain medicines made me CRAZY...she understood exactly what I was saying!

I think I'm most excited about reconnecting with old friends on Facebook. People that I haven't seen or talked to in years. Anyway we are making plans to get together is summer to catch up! I'm so looking forward to getting to see each one of them...I just wish we didn't have to wait so long.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
THIS WEEK TO JODY (today) & DAD (Sunday)!!
I hope you both have great days!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Ice Storms HITS Dennard...

Below are pictures that Mom sent me from their trip to Dennard on Saturday. Mom and Dad went to Dennard on Saturday to check on the cabin. Lots of down trees and limbs but none hit the cabin.
