So, pumpkin_seed’s new school hasn’t had their Science Fair yet, which is kinda weird. Her old school had theirs a couple weeks ago. Every year for the last like 7 ( 9 if you include my sons) we have had to go and buy one of those three sided cardboard display boards and come up [...]

So, as I have mentioned before, my sweet 13 year old daughter does suffer from the occasional “blemish”. OK, let’s call it what it is, “pimple”, “zit” , but she doesn’t have a full blown acne problem, yet. The thing I don’t wanna do is have her use harsh soaps and cleansers on her delicate [...]
When pumpkin_seed started going to a new school last fall, we assumed there would be a few things we would have to purchase. School supplies, I mean. Pencils, paper, folders, etc. One thing I didn’t realize she would need was a flash drive. I guess if I had thought about it, I would have known. [...]
Growing up, one of the most exciting things I could think of was one of those Disney vacations. We never took one. We went to Cedar Point and Sea World in Ohio…Took a lot of camping trips, but never went to Disney. UNTIL I MOVED OUT!! Yeah, My parents took my youngest sister to Disney [...]
I have a friend who is having a hard time taking her pregnancy vitamins. She says they are like horse pills and she can’t swallow them very well. I told her no to worry about it, to just take a chewable multi-vitamin. She is worried that they won’t be as good for her. I said [...]
HELP!! MY daughter is having her first “breakout” and I have no idea how to help her. Anyone know how to get rid of blackheads really fast?? Can anyone suggest a good face wash that is good for sensitive skin?? It’s been too long since I had to worry about anything like this. I keep [...]
So, I have been thinking. I know, know….ANYWAY, we recently visited another camp in the area to see what we could see. We are trying to get some ideas on how to make our camp better. Not that we would ever copy someone else, but we may be able to steal all their ideas incorporate [...]
My poor little girl!! Now that she is a teen, she is starting to get acne. It only seems to be on her nose, though , which seems to always be oily, so I am constantly telling her to wash her face better!! I think she just gets excess oil built up there and it [...]
UUggghhh. Every time I go in pumpkin_seeds bathroom, the hand towel is on the floor. I don’t know if it’s her that throws it down or if it’s the neighbor kids who seem to live here part time. But I do know that I am losing my sanity!!! AAAhhhh!!! That’s it!! I’m buying one of [...]
