Mother's Day

Mother's Day is different for every person! Some people ARE mothers, EVERYONE has mothers...some have stand-in mothers.

Mom's are more than just a biological parent. What makes a mom is what is felt on the inside, not necessarily the biological connection.

So, whoever is the mother or "mom" in your life, celebrate her connection with you! Bless her day and let her know how you feel!

Time to Go Camping?

My Bug Be Gone Lotion Stick was a featured item in Chris' blog shopindieonline.com/blog/

It was included along with a few other fun camping type items, including a compass and a very fancy Portable Bonfire container! Come take a look!

Personally, I'm not real big on camping anymore. Used to love it, but never camped in style. It was always nothing more than a little portable tent, backpacking etc. Now that I'm older, my bones insist on more comforts than what they used to need. Unless I upgrade my camping style to a trailer, motorhome etc, I'm afraid my camping days are over.

However, I still love day trips, walks in the wild, a few hours of hiking...as long as I can get back to my comfy home later. A hot bath helps too.
