Improvements

It feels like a long time since I have posted. Although not much has happened! We had to stay inside because of the rain. Dee Dee had a tick behind her ear. And today when I was vacuuming - I sucked up a dead flatted tick. Gross. I have heard so many theories on how to remove a tick after it has buried its head in your flesh. Liquid soap on a cotton ball, Vaseline and pulling, lighting a match, blowing it out and touching the tick, and my personal favourite - the one I was told my life - twisting it counterclockwise. Turns out you are just supposed to grasp it with tweezers and gently pull. So there's one Old Wives' Tale down.

I was talking to my mom the other night about how tired I've been feeling lately. She told me that if you run your wedding band (has to be gold) across your forehead, and it leaves a black mark, it means that your iron levels are low. I thought it was kinda silly sounding but interesting so I thought I'd give it a try. My face looked like a Saskatchewan grid road map! I made Mark try and... nothing! I don't get it, we eat the same stuff! Ack! Well, now he gets to eat spinach and steaks. He's happy about one and not so much for the other! Plus, I've started taking my vitamins again. Here's hoping it works. I feel like such a lazy sack like this! So there's one for Old Wives' Tales.

I am currently rocking out to Classic Moxy Fruvous. I'm going to be singing King of Spain all night. Poor Mark.
