What is that Green Smog?

Posted by Nancy Lou Henderson in The Widow's Blog | 6 comments

Believe me, all parents need to read this informative blog. This particular information is not passed on to other parents because of its delicate nature and the unusual fear it evokes. It is totally unbelievable and unexpected that it could happen to you. The only way to prevent this from happening to you, as a parent, would be to just not have children at all, send them off to boarding school at a young age of twelve for seven years, or adopt them at the age of twenty. Believe me, when it happens to you, you will think about the options you could have chosen. Okay, here’s the...

While heading to the treadmill this morning, I decided to stop a minute, go into the bathroom, and just trim my bangs a little because I was tired of them tickling my eyebrows.

Sometimes as we get older we forget the stages that our adult children went through as they were growing up. I think you could compare forgetting those stages to the pain of childbirth which is something that women choose to forget or there would not be the decision to have more children. Something I do remember is traveling in a car with our child back in the day when there were no car seats, booster seats, and seatbelts. I am not knocking those inventions because they are very needed for safety and prevent deaths but just remembering when we didn’t have them. I own a Ford...

The Wonderful Uses for Duct Tape It seems to me that one of the most wonderful products on the market out there today and actually for a very long time is duct tape’ This widow uses duct tape for some things you possibly might not ever consider, so I thought I would share some of my secrets with you.
