And I myself will be wearing pink taffeta as chenille would not go with my complexion.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We use All Free and Clear, because we all have ridiculously sensitive skin.

I've heard on the diaper boards that they started putting optical brighteners in it, which retards absorbancy.

It used to be a diaper board favorite, too.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Much health ma for your Grams, Kristin.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Health~ma for Kristin's Gram.

What is even happening?

I've heard on the diaper boards that they started putting optical brighteners in it, which retards absorbancy.

I wondered why you were avoiding optical brighteners. I didn't want to ask and find out they caused elbow cancer or anything though, because even some other Free & Clear detergents (like Wisk) seem to irritate us, ditto the concentrated kind of All Free & Clear. Our skin is akin to the princess who slept on the pea.

How about Dreft? Is Dreft still good for baby clothes.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm glad she's back at the hospital. My mom was running ragged, and now the hydration can happen via IV rather than Mom trying to coax liquids down Gram's throat.

Mom is pretty upbeat now that Gram's back to the ER. She feels like this will allow the fever to break, and I suspect she's right. Her older brother is coming down from NH tomorrow, so she'll have some sibling support. Assuming nothing gets drastically worse, I think we'll be okay. Continued Buffista ~ma is always helpful, though.

Poor gram. I'm so sorry, Kristin. I'm glad your mom is getting some relief, though.

In theory, but my hippie stuff is actually cheaper.

What's the hippie stuff called?

I use Country Save: [link]

I use the liquid, which is very, very lightly scented, but has never caused me any issues or headaches.

I can only use anything scented during those few idyllic weeks when none of us have any allergies, and the only scented brand that hasn't bothered us is that Arm & Hammer powder. I'll have to check out this Country Save. Oh look. Elmer's Glue Elmer.
