The 426th way to use my "essential oil" lime bathroom spray


Oh, hello.

For that faithful 10 of you that are wondering, I am still alive.

My life overfloweth with abundant "events" that seem to conspire to keep me from investing a little time into my blog life.

Reality is such a blog kill.

The cool whip on the pudding was when my external hard drive frizzed and took EVERY SINGLE one of my photos with it. If it is that important that you use a 5 volt adapter instead of a 12 volt one---they should write it in MUCH bigger font.

Sheesh.

My computer doctor thinks he might be able to save it---- pray for me, and my hard drive. I can barely focus on anything else---ALL MY PICTURES DANG IT!!!!!!

To help illustrate the point...
Today as I got ready to go into the "big city" (that means I actually got dressed in something other than my jammies, combed my hair and brushed my teeth) I blissfully applied my favorite "essential oil" lime bathroom spray
all over my neck and chest area, instead of my "real" perfume.

Natural, essential oils Lime Bathroom Spray, $ 8.00

Walking around the stores with my mind experiencing a vague uneasiness that the whole world was smelling like my bathroom AND having to constantly itch the growing rash on my chest....priceless.


At least that's what my son says.

Hopefully I'll be back in the swing of things soon. I feel so naked without my pictures....naked and lime fresh.

I've sprayed my hair with deodorant before thinking it was hairspray! At least my hair didn't smell stinky all day, lol! You'll be back to semi-normal soon I'm sure!

DeNae said...

Actually, I was just wondering where you had disappeared to! Glad to see you're back in the saddle and smelling great.

Our computer took all of our pictures from our once-in-a-lifetime humanitarian trip to Peru hostage 3 years ago. Oh, the grief.

That really sucks!! I lost about 1200 baby-ish pictures of my Haley a few years ago. I still cringe whenever I think about it. So sorry!
Hope the rash isn't too bad, at least you smell nice and clean!

Susan Anderson said...

Glad to see you!!! But sorry to hear that your pics might be in jeopardy. I sure hope he can save 'em!

Karen Sue said...

Lisa Loo WHO??? Oh, YEAH!! Glad you are back!! Do not give up yet, if you have a computer doctor. Mine died twice and both times he was able to retrieve the photos. I told him it was the ONLY thing on the computer I cared about. The second time he sold me and external hard drive, then I haven't used enough, but there are some pictures on it if I fry the computer again. Oh, did I mention that my Easyshare contains at least 12,000 pictures of my life for the last 4 or 5 years?? My summer goal to delete, sort, print hasn't come to fruition yet. But hey, I did spend a whole day working on it..once this fall.. good to have you back...

Naked and lime fresh sounds like a party to me!!

Praying for your hard drive. And that your rash goes away.

Cynthia said...

You always make me laugh! I hope the rash clears up soon and you can recover your pictures. I lost all mine from the summer in a similar event. Good luck!

R Allen said...

At least you smell good while you're scratching...

I'm wondering how many people will come by after googling the words naked and lime fresh together...
I so get your pain. Seriously, reading that you lost pictures had me with my hand over my mouth with look of horror-- anyone coming in the room would've thought you had blogged that you ran over your own cat by the look on my face. I am so sorry!!! Don't touch anything until the computer wizard does his magic. I'm holding out hope for you! Is Kelly ok? Is she back driving again?

DesertHen said...

I must agree....Reality is such a Blog Kill! I have been so busy I hadn't realized that I hadn't posted since September! Gads, but time does fly!!
