Beep Beep Beep

May 27th, 2009

I was out shopping a few days ago and almost got run over by someone in a wheelchair after she’d got out of her Toyota Sienna wheelchair van, I was furious because the woman in the chair it had absolutely no regard for any one — I get that it must be difficult to get around and probably frustrating when people don’t help out by clearing the way a little — but that doesn’t mean she gets to just ride it as fast as she wants where ever she wants — that thing was big and would have hurt a lot if she had actually caught me and she was only an inch or so away. I would have had a serious word with her, if she’d slowed down enough that by the time I got my composure back she hadn’t been out of sight!

Thankfully not every one is like that. My friend needs a scooter sometimes and he’s always very considerate of others :)

MobilityWorks.com sell handicap accessible vans both large and small across America, they are one of the leading providers in the country with many years experience behind them. So if you need a van either for yourself, a loved one or any one else then visit their site and check out what they have to offer.

Sensitive Skin

May 27th, 2009

I just spend some time looking around for some organic skin care products to try and found some nice ones at Simple Scents, I have very sensitive skin — always have had, but recently I find myself going natural and organic more and more.

I always skin test every thing new I use, that is try a little and then wait 24 hours to make sure there are no untoward reactions, after I had a major allergic reaction that left me in hospital in 2005 this is now a no brainer for me.

It might be a bit of a pain having to wait before I can try something new, but that is definitely better than having to suffer through what I did again, it was truly awful and took my skin/hair months and months to fully recover!

I have found that out of every 10 products I test I have a reaction, usually only minor, to about 3 — however since I have been trying organic and natural products I have had no reactions to any of them, not a single one out of probably 30 now!

This is awesome for me, I don’t know why I didn’t think about trying this before…seems rather obvious that I would get on better with natural products in retrospect :)

Shopping Day

May 27th, 2009

I have some shopping to do online today, I need some new underwear for myself — basics rather than any thing fancy though unfortunately, I love buying nice underwear! I also need to get my brother something for his birthday, my husband something for our anniversary and I am going to get my dad some Recycled Golf Balls for father’s day as that’s what he has asked for!
