Sounds good. I'll have the house all to myself on Tues and Wed so I'll go to Wal*Mart Tuesday morning. That way I can spend as long as I choose there and not have to worry about being hurried along. I'll also be able to spend all day in the tub. I'll look up to see what works for masks. I've got sensitive skin so I'll see about what works well and what to avoid. Ok, we all need to know.....Did you or did you not get to have the wonderful calgon soak??? If not, sorry...if so...Im jealous!!! lol ;D

I had a slight change of plans and should be going to Wal*Mart on Friday.
Mom had the flu and with her leukemia treatment I had to get her to the hospital. She's doing much better now.

She can take Advil again so that'll take care of the majority of her back pains. It's limited but it's something.
I did get to go to Wal*Mart today. They didn't have any types of bath salts but I was able to get some body moisturizing wash. Maybe online I can find bath salts or bubble bath.
Edited to add: This highly amused my parents when I got back from Wal*Mart. Dad gave me money to do the shopping there.
Because of her treatment Mom is supposed to drink Vitamin Water. She really likes the orange and lemonade kinds.
While at Wal*Mart I found orange vitamin water for a dollar a bottle. I couldn't find the lemonade kind so I cleaned them out of the orange. It was thirteen bottles that I got for her.
The clerk did give me one very interesting look when I showed up at the check out. For some reason it was killing me not to smile.

My mom has moderate stage dementia(Alzheimer's) and dad has had several strokes and can ambulate some, but not real fast and falls alot. They are in a nursing home together, which is a blessing. Mom doesnt know me most of the time. I am watching them fade... Its a reality of life, but doesnt make it any easier.

I'll take a look at that one site. If I can't get to Walgreens anytime soon I can try online. Dad has been encouraging me in trying to start my own sewing stuff up. Right now my biggest problem is I don't have a job. Unemployment is really high here. I'm trying to save up what I've got so that I can start buying the stuff I need around the end of October after the Ren. Faire. I'm sorry to hear about your mother's condition.

I really enjoyed browsing all the cool jewelry,stones, perfume, incense etc, nice people.

I saw a sign on the local marquee today. It was for a father-son event and instead of reading "Noon to Night" it read "Moon to Night."
Methinks someone might get yelled at.

I'm afraid to ask how one would. Blaaaaaaaah. I've got to go to the dentist soon either to get a tooth filled or yanked. I don't care as long as the discomfort goes away. I'm terrified of the dentist but after having a tooth crack on me once I know to go in and get it done right away. We can't afford to have my teeth cleaned or anything so it'll be a filling or a pulling. I'm thinking probably get it pulled. My fear of the dentist came from when I was a kid. My baby teeth weren't coming out as they should so the dentist had to pull them every once and a while. While pulling one he slipped and cracked a baby tooth. He then pulled that tooth and another one without any type of novicane. He followed the old doctor route of "a good doctor does the procedure quickly". I understand now why he did it that way but back then it hurt and I bled quite a bit. It also scared the daylights out of me and put a strong fear of dentists in me. That and I've got bad tooth genetics going back at least two generations. My grandfather had really rotten teeth and joked he had more crowns in his teeth than Europe had to put on their royal's heads.

At least you come from royalty,lol! I hate you have the bad teeth thing going on. I cant believe you had to suffer like that with the dentisit, old school or not, it sounds barbaric not to have some anesthesia locally at least. I have the same problem. I am insurance rich, but cant afford the copays to go to dentist or have my eyes checked. I have two bad teeth on bottom left that are cutting my tongue and one tooth on right that has a sharp point on inside that cuts my tongue on that side while I am asleep. Bills, food and basics take every penny here. So, I grin and bear it! ;D I am so glad its friday. This week at work coupled with kid/spouse chaos at home has taken its toll.I am ready for some R&R. Happy weekend and hope u feel better soon !!

Thanks. The dentist's office opens up on Monday so as long as my tooth doesn't crack on me I can gut it out until then.
I'm really hoping no other teeth go for a while.
The only insurance I've got is life insurance. We can't afford any other type.
