Lice treatment

I didn’t do my homework.

In lieu of that, I’ll turn in an old one.

Drinking and yapping with my sisters about my dad’s version of lice treatment in the 1970s. (Don’t try this at home.)

Joey, as always, is videographer.

It’s Thursday, so my goal is to SHARE in the beginner’s AA meeting tonight for the first time. Send me confidence vibes at 5:45 pm Central Standard.

    Kerosene? Oh my!! “And if you move I’ll light you on fire!” LoL. Hilarious! You’ve got to love the old fashioned remedies. Some proved to have worked well (and still do) while others were merely just a myth.

    “I don’t wanna take a Kerosene bath Daddy! It burns!”
    LoL. OK, enough with the sick humor for one day. :)

    Thanks, I needed a good laugh this morning!

    I’ve been following your blog for about a month and promise to write a proper introduction soon. I just want you to know that you have huge “CONFIDNCE VIBES” coming your way at 5:45 pm today from our gas class A in South Austin. I’m pulling for you since I share your feelings about speaking before a group.

    Driving down IH35 near Round Rock the other day, I saw a filling station with a big tank labeled “Kerosene”. I was surprised. I didn’t think they sold it any more, except maybe in 1 gallon cans.

    So let lice everywhere tremble.

    On home remedies, a friend of mine swears that her mother used to paint the inside of her throat liberally with iodine whenever she even caught a sniffle. She still gags whenever she opens her mouth wide.

    The things we do to the people we love. “But it’s for their own good…”

    And on that note, there’s an interesting article today in the NYTimes about attitudes toward home ownership. It seems there’s a gender difference.

    http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/07/garden/07men.html?pagewanted=all

    “THE house was an ordinary house: It bore him no malice. Alan Berks knows that now. But back in the spring of 2005, when Mr. Berks, a playwright, and his wife bought the three-bedroom home for $214,000, it often seemed that it was trying to ruin his life.”

    “Married couples make up the largest group of new home buyers. Next, according to research from the National Association of Realtors, are single women, who in the last 12 months represented 21 percent of home buyers; single men were just 10 percent. ”

    Funny. Good luck tonight – you’ll share when the time is right for you. And don’t feel like the Lone Ranger, as most people fear public speaking more than death! Staging the house will help you sell it faster and at a better price – your realtor is demonstrating savvy in that respect ;-)
