L drove to school yesterday as I had to go downtown with M on some errands and didn't need my car. I can see where this taste of independence will only heighten the longing for one's own car. It's a good thing for the most part, I guess (as is 'growing up'). Some of her friends already have their own cars in Grade 12. L says her friend's mom gets upset every time the friend mentions the word 'university'. This girl is the baby of the family and her mom is having separation anxiety. This girl will go to a Toronto university so that she can stay home and this girl is ok with that. I think that whatever works for each family is a good thing. Some friends can't wait to leave their parents' home.
If anyone is interested in homemade facial treatments, my sister just sent this to 'recipe' to us out of the blue. I know L was asking me what to do to get rid of bags under her eyes, but I couldn't really get interested in her problem! Maybe my sister would know.
Acne/Oily Skin Facial Mask

I loved then The boy could drive for selfish reasons only. It's great when they can help do things when you are strapped for time. It was probably one of the few times he did not complain about his sister :o)
Thks for the tips....tommorow, I will have smooth wrinkle free skin....he he he!
That is an interesting recipe. It doesn't sound like it would feel very good on your face though. Then again, if it gets rid of bags, it might be something to try. LOL
Hi Christine,
Admired your Create Tuesday 11. Good idea !
Have looked at the cookery site and hope to have a go at the cake. Some of the other recipes look good too. Thank you for introducing it,
Pleasing to have a good report from the eye surgeon. Think I'm at the same cataract stage. Lots of people here seem to be having the operation. The local hospital is so busy people are being shipped by coach (if this is possible !) to a Manchester hospital. A nurse travels with them and puts in the eye drops on the journey so they can go straight in. Everyone who has had the operation is very pleased and say that it has made a big difference to their lives
See Lilly is back in the saddle !
I think cucumber slices help for eye puffiness: http://www.ehow.com/way_5501461_home-dark-circles-under-eye.html
I hadn't heard of tea bags. I wonder... black or green tea?
SoccerMom, I have a feeling the 'helping out with things' stage doesn't last too long...at least until the novelty wears off
Pete, you're such a joker
Kay, I think the same as you
Barbara, I feel like having that cake again, so good with a cup of coffee. Sounds like they have the eye surgeries running very efficiently under the circumstances. Yes, it was good to see that Lilly's back.
Japra, I forwarded that link to L, thanks so much! I'm sure she'll try it.
