The Discovery of the Long Journey Ahead

March 2nd, 2018 began like any other day, but by the end the date would makes itself memorable and known.

I was taking a nap since I had not slept well the night before, and at about 12:00 PM I received a text from my father that said “911 on way to Scripps” shortly followed by texts from my fathers neighbors that had words like “ambulance”, “your dad’s house” and “what happened”. My initial reaction was confusion as I had just woken up, and then panic.

Luckily, his particular Friday, my husband was home, and he was able to keep a calm that I was unable to attain. I did not know which hospital within this particular health system my father was being transported to, but started closest to our homes.

Again, luck was on my side, and when I spoke to the ER he had just arrived and we were less than 5 minutes away! We literally arrived before a doctor even saw him.  Continue reading →

Cremo: All Season Sage & Citrus Body Wash Review & Giveaway

There is no doubt that we are fans of body wash and personal care items in our house. The only problem is that most of the body washes that I receive have a feminine scent with hints of florals and candy, that is until recently.

Cremo: Bourbon Shave Cream Review

Cremo Company: Bourbon Shaving Cream Review & Giveaway

When I had the opportunity to try Cremo Company and their men’s and women’s shaving creams, I instantly liked them. Each of these products are great, and live by the message on the bottle with a little goes a long way.

When I saw that Cremo had released a new scent of shaving cream I knew I had to give it a try. The thing that makes these shaving creams different are that they are concentrated shaving creams, which means less of the product is needed to give a good result.
