I need some heavy duty face cream...
Posted By: GaPeach on 2006-11-07
In Reply to:
…I have some areas on my face that are extremely dry, around my hair line, around my nose and I have used several creams trying to soften these areas up. Sometimes I even flake on my eyelids like I have sunburn and I use dandruff shampoo on my eyebrows because if not they will flake- no dandruff in the hair, though. I know this sounds awful but this is getting on my last nerve. I have put petroleum jelly on my face overnight- still dry in these patches. Does anyone else have something like this and if so any remedies? Thanks

Had the same thing happen with face cream
I just happened to open the box before I got to the register. Instead of Neutogena, someone had swapped with Suave. If the packages open easily, I always check the contents. I love/hate that store. Last weekend I got a whole buggy full of groceries and there are only 2 lanes open out of 20. The only others were self checkout. I had to bag my items and place them on the floor because my buggy is full and there is no place to pull the items out of the buggy until you scan them. I let loose on the asst. manager that was standing nearby and she said they just couldn't get any help. I said well, maybe if you paid more, but then wait! they probably make more than I do as a MT anyway! 
yam cream is a natural progesterone cream--sm
I believe you can get it in most drug stores, health food stores, and on line. check on line, as you may find a better quality at a cheaper price. It works well.
Oh, and slave duty.
They get to do chores if they can't behave. Having a car, having electronics, going out with friends, those are all optional. What's that joke about CPS and snotty teens? The one stating all we have to provide is a roof, a bed, clothing (even used), and three meals a day?
Jury Duty
I've been called just once and because I used to work for attorneys, I was good friends with the Judge and I couldn't serve. I'd love to, though.
Jury duty in Idaho (sm)
In Idaho they go by driver's license and voter registration so if they don't get you one way they'll get you another I guess. They would miss a lot of people if they only went by voter registration. I have included a link to a page that explains it if you want to check it out. Maybe some states or counties are different, but I bet they probably all do things pretty much the same. Of course maybe this is good for you, it means you were both right, sometimes that's a good way to end a debate amicably.

And who shows up for Jury Duty
I went to Jury Duty months ago. A judge came in the Jury Duty chambers and told us about the lack of a true system in Russia. He personally visited Russia and interviewed their judges and prisoners. Thus, be grateful you live the US. Be grateful you can speak your uncompassionate words.
Anyway in Michigan Jurors show up 47% of the time. Kinda frightening given the judge's comment who is present for court every single day:
Long story short: A rapist was let go because potential jurors don't show up. The case was dismissed. That's really quite sad.
Please no matter no state you are in...........go to Jury Duty.
I'm very heavy
I'm very heavy and I would NEVER expect any concessions because of my weight. I don't expect people to cater to me or excuse me. I'm overweight because I don't exercise and I eat crap. At least I used to. 2009 is my year of change and I have been working diligently on changing that.
I agree with the other posters who says if this woman doesn't like the way she's treated because of the way she looks, she needs to change it, not demand acceptance. Fat is the last bastion of that sort of thing. I hate all the politically correct stuff. Bottom line is if you're that heavy, you're unhealthy and you need to change things. And I, too, know just how hard that is.
It's a mother's duty to protect her children
if at all possible and until she knows more about this woman she has no obligation to let her speak to her children - you have obviously never been in this situation. I understand what you are saying about way worse and horrible situations in the world but that is not this OP's problem - her problem here is the emotional wellbeing of her children and it is her call and IMO she made the correct one.
I once was assigned guest book duty.
Like you, I didn't know what that entailed. When I arrived at the reception, I was told to hold the thing as people walked up and signed it. Basically, I was a human podium. If that's what the bride wants you to do, tell her to leave it on the table! How rude of her to expect so much! Show up in the red dress and don't even sign the silly guest book!
How many times you been called for jury duty? sm
We have lived here for 10 years. My husband has been called 4 times! They have never called me. He never gets selected when they find out he is prior military, but we know within a year or two he will get called again. He does not mind and has actually told me he would like to be selected and hear a case sometime. It just makes me wonder, though, how often does everyone else get called? 
First of all, I am sure that painting the walls is the landlord's duty.
Same with the carpet, the landlord has either to clean it or put a new one. It was also his duty to fix the stove and pay for it.
Regarding all the mess in his basement and all the leaks, which emerged after you signed the lease, the landlord is in the wrong, as he did not disclose it to you before you signed the lease.
You are definitely confronted with an dishonest landlord and as a former poster said, get a housing inspection which will prove that the home is 'uninhabitable.'
All this 'junk' in the basement is a perfect breeding and hiding place for roaches, rodents and other pests.
You can definitely get out of this lease and have the right to ask your deposit back.
If they're really heavy
You'll want to use a screw and screw anchor, or find a stud to put the nail in (no, no, a stud in the wall, not a good-looking guy to do it - well, hey, your choice!). They usually have holes in the back for hanging.
Chocolate cream pie, whipped cream & chocolate shavings on it!
PLUS:
Chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream.
Pumpkin pie with a 2:1 ratio of whipped cream to pie.
A root beer float.
Chocolate chip cookies, or else soft, iced molasses ones - warm from the oven, of course!
And for dessert, a few chocolate Easter bunnies and a dark chocolate Hershey bar with almonds.
Or White Shoulders or any of those very heavy

Along with other husband, used to be very heavy smoker
and as a smoker you don’t really know just how stinky the place, your clothes, everything is until you stop. I do not think you will be able to get smoke out of the furniture, walls etc until it is no longer around. I probably would try cat litter, vinegar and water in bowls around the house, airing the home out if you can and I have boiled water and added spices such as cinnamon sticks - sure beats the smoke smell.
Anyone ever been really heavy and have a healthy pregnancy? sm
Well I am at 325 and pregnant. Yes, I am tall but still that weight is very, very disgusting. I wonder how I got to this place. But I am so worried about my weight affecting the baby. The baby was nto planned - was a complete surprise. A welcome surprise though. But I never thought I would be able to get pregnant while being this heavy. I don't why I thought that but I truly did. I am just wondering if anyone has been really overweight and how it affected your pregnancy. The doctors don't really see any harm in it, or so they say, but I am still a bit worried. Thanks for all input. I am getting the Lap band after I have the baby. I want to be healthy for my family after this and it seems like a reasonable option. Thanks everyone. Have a great Thanksgiving!
Congratulations! My Mom was on the heavy side
You'll be fine! Have a happy and healthy pregnancy! All the best to you! 
My SIL was heavy and had two healthy babies.
With her last pregnancy, she started walking and eating better while she was pregnant. She weighed less at the end of her pregnancy than at the beginning. Baby was 7 lbs and healthy, too!
Update, heavy sigh of relief. sm
My daughter just got a text message, her friend's time of the month arrived. Thank heavens. Thanks for your advice. Hopefully she learned her lesson.
My heart is heavy -I think my older cat is dying
It is hard to type or even see when your eyes are brimming with tears. I have had this girl since her mother first showed up at my door pregnant with her about 17 years ago. She is a purr girl and she has been sick, had a stroke which she recovered from but now a couple of months later feel like she is living on borrowed time. Not in pain but seems to be sorta stuporous, will respond when I call her name by looking at me. I have hand fed her water (ice water which she likes) and also she took very little in in the way of food. I called my daughter to see if she wanted to come by tonight after she gets off from work and she said absolutely. I hated to tell her at work but so afraid this ole girl is not going to make it much longer. She has trouble getting around so I am her legs now. If she needs to go to the bathroom, I will take her there also. I have her laying on 1 of my fav sweaters now in my work room, held her lots last night and today also. My heart hurts.
as I'm aging, I do not like HEAVY pots/pans
La Crueset was too heavy for me as is cast iron plus cast iron is bad for people with hepatitis problem(s) so I tend to stay away from cast iron (puts off iron in the food and hepatitis C feeds on iron) as I have a family member with this particular hepatitis.
My hands are also very bad after transcribing for 30+ years - so I tend to want nonaluminum lighter cookware which would be something like Farberware or Revereware if they still make the latter. *lol*
Heavy gauge wire crates are a good choice.

Yeah, I just did jury duty, served on 2 trials in my small county court. There was a girl
did absolutely nothing. Good-looking, well-dressed young lady, may went out a few times (I'm sure to deliver a message or something), but other than that- absolutely nothing. What a job!. Am sure in my county at least, its all in who you know.
Good luck with your jury duty.
Can any new Fermodyl 7 users comment on how it makes your hair feel? Greasy? Heavy? I don't use

Egg on his face as in him saying
that the YOUNG women were going to go in droves to vote for her as they did not want to take care of their own selves, either getting a husband to take care of them or else having government to do. I know older women voted that way, their choice but I said egg on his face for making such remarks on and on about how YOUNG women (under 35) were going in that direction. Has absolutely nothing to do with her leading- has everything to do with a statement completely false. Now are you still confused?
Egg on face
I personally know of at least 10 to 15 ladies that feel it is the man's place to take care of them and that is all they want out of life -- they are between 38 and 50. So now what do you say -- sorry I do not want this lady voted for because she is a woman, and I definitely do not want her leading us. But that is for the political board and not here. But egg on face -- you have some now.
Maybe take it for it's face value
and just accept it in the spirit in which it may be given. Only you know the relationship you have with her. She may have just gotten the proverbial bug up you know where and decided since she got a discount to use it. It may be an olive branch of some sort. Who knows. I'd take it as an olive branch unless and until she proves otherwise.

Blush/Bronzer
Eyeliner (MAC)
Kohl (MAC)
Mascara (fiberwig)
No lipstick- allergies.
What is usually on your face???
Face
Usually nothing more than a little chapstick since I work from home. If I'm leaving the house, a little foundation but right now, nothing. I even forgot the chapstick this morning LOL.

Ice cream!

Face Creams
I was wondering if any one has any good suggestions for face creams. I use to use the Mary Kay face cream line, but I would like to try something else. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
face pain
Need to know if anyone else has face pain. It is under my eyes and on the side of my nose. Sometimes it is so bad I could scream. It feels like sinuses but CT scan was normal. Only goes away with ibuprofen. How long can I take ibuprofen for?
face pain
thanks
What a face! Sweet!
shingles on face
About 4 years ago, I had a mastoidectomy the middle of May. The middle of June, I came in exposure range with a child with chickenpox at Wal-Mart, and 2 weeks later I developed shingles. Could have been coincidence, but I figure stress related, and I, too, have hypothyroidism. No other testing was done, but it hurt so bad I couldn't even touch my hair let alone my head. I had it on right forehead, bridge of nose, and up through scalp.
By the way, something else that really helps with the healing process and pain of it all is Pantothenic acid capsules from the herbal store.
What a face! Love him!
I think we are blessed to share our lives with these animals, they love so unconditionally. My heart breaks when I hear about animal abuse. 
What a wise looking face.
I'm sorry about your husband's death. You must both miss him very much.
Well maybe the body but NO WAY that face.
I'd rather be fat and pretty. LOL
She looks to have had a face lift that
did not go well. She has not appeared anywhere in 7 years so quite a different look than when I last saw her.
Keep your hands off your face
and be very gentle with the skin around your eyes and face. I see other people rub their eyes and faces vigorously when they're tired, and when the hands come down, I see wrinkles around the eyes. I'm 45 and people think I'm as young as 26. I do have the dark circles, which I have to cover with 16-hour foundation in a shade lighter than my regular foundation. Then I set with powder. I sometimes apply a dab of pink powder to the darkest areas or the inside corner area. This is what the makeup artist from What Not To Wear does to counter darkness. Preparation H is supposed to shrink bags.
How often can she wash her face? sm
Can you imagine having to take all of those, or even 1/2, off first? What a job.
Hydrocortizone cream for the eye..sm
lids work. My doctor recommended it. Not sure what to tell you about the face.
TLR- ice cream treat
And by the way thanks to some of the ones that don't mind reading them!!
I decided to take a much deserved break a lot earlier than usual from the craziness going on today and plus it was so beautiful out I couldn't sit any longer. Cupid and I went to Bruesters Ice Cream for a treat. He was sooo excited he ran up to the stand!! I think he knew something special was waiting there for him! It was the first time we went to there so he didn't know what was there yet. The first thing the girl asked me was if I wanted a doggie dish. When he got it, there was a little dog biscuit stuck in the icecream. It was so cute. I hope your having a good evening, later.
Benadryl cream
Apply to your earlobes front and back, put in the earrings and don't touch the rest of the day! Really works, even if you have to wear the nickel earrings from time to time.
No, but on progesterone cream. sm
Just finished book "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause" by John R. Lee and Virginia Hopkins. Their web site explains and outlines various menopause symptoms and then tells you what would work best for those symptoms, estrogen or progesterone. I am using the progesterone cream, which I got from a list of progesterone creams from his website.
The first thing I note is that I am sleeping better. I have less hot flashes and just feel better overall. I also take a vitamin that helps hormonal issues.
It's a process. One has to figure out what their body needs and do their best to supplement it. I tried not to do anything for a while, but my hormones are going crazy and it affects my mood and well being. I wish I were symptom-free as most of my friends, but that is not the case for me.
I don't want HRT so this is the next best thing for me.
Anyone had Bruster's ice cream??. We tried..
yesterday and were expecting a really great treat....they say it's "real" ice cream. Very disappointed. I've had real ice cream and this was not as I remember it. Breyer's from the grocery store is better. And the waffle cones fell apart as we were eating it.
Anyone used Strivectin or similar for face? (sm)
I am looking for something to help with mostly discoloration/sun spots, and wrinkles. I see all the ads for Strivectin and such but hate to spend that much without knowing it will actually work. Has anyone used it and was it any good? Or can you recommend anything else? Thanks!
Oh my gosh - what a cute face and
what rich colors. Those ears look so soft.
That's one handsome beagle!
I bet beagles like games where you hide their favorite treat or toy and they have to sniff it out.
I just had to splash icewater on my face!
Doncha just hate the afternoon run downs? Coffee just doesn't work on me for some reason...all it does is make me pee but doesn't jazz me up or anything. I'm actually looking forward to the cool weather because for some reason THAT is what gets me going and feeling frisky. :-D
Several have come forward to plaster their face on TV
and apparently he inappropriately touched some of them so yes he is on the wanted list. You would think by the time women get to be, oh say 17 or 18, that they would have the sense to know when something really wrong as in this case. One lady shown long enough in the tooth to know much better!!
