  • serenity

    I have only been married for 3 months but allready I have discovered that cultivating a  loving relationship is  not unlike reading the prayer for serenity:

    "God grant me the serenity
    to accept the things I cannot change;

    courage to change the things I can;
    and wisdom to know the difference.

    Living one day at a time;
    Enjoying one moment at a time;
    Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
    Taking, as He did, this sinful world
    as it is, not as I would have it;
    Trusting that He will make all things right
    if I surrender to His Will;
    That I may be reasonably happy in this life
    and supremely happy with Him
    Forever in the next.
    Amen.
    "--Reinhold Niebuhr

  • In his scent

     Ever wondered what it is that causes people to be attracted to each other?

    Is is it in his kiss?

     No that's not the way !

    According to scientists, It's in his scent.

    Choosing a genetically compatible partner can be difficult it today's perfume rich postindustrial jungle, and getting your immune system genes profiled can be expensive. Before you run to a doctor for blood work to see whether your mate is a suitable match—and sire for your future children—try listening to your nose. (Unfortunately, the sniff test will only work if you're not taking birth control pills.)

    1. Declare a deception-free day for the nostrils. Have your beau shower with fragrance-free soap and wear clean cotton clothing for a day, away from smokers and the perfumed masses. Be sure you don't have a cold, and that you yourself haven't been around smokers for a few days.
    2. After he spends a day and a night in his cotton clothes, before he tosses them in the direction of the hamper, wrestle them from him and have a "smelldown." Make it a romantic experience. If your man's shirt doesn't offend, you should be safe. (Find the scent alluring or sexy? Even better! That attraction is nature's way of telling you he's a safe contributor to your offspring's genetic ensemble.)
    3. If your man's odor reminds you of your father or of a brother, you may want to consider getting in touch with your doctor and ask about genetic tests before trying to conceive a child. Tell the doctor you're concerned that you may share a close MHC or "HLA" profile. (HLA, for human leukocyte antigen, is a technical tag for human MHC.) Meanwhile, a deceptively pleasing gift of cologne might be in order.
    4. Genetic incompatibility is not the only reason you may find his odor offensive. Does his body scent seem unusually intense? He might have a medical condition that explains the smell. Ask him to bring it up at his next medical checkup. A very sweet scent is sometimes evidence of diabetes or schizophrenia—both of which appear to be heritable. It is wise to discuss these issues with each other, and with a doctor, before having kids.
    5. Before you decide that your relationship stinks, check your mate's diet. A taste for spicy foods or an overindulgence in garlic can cause strong body odors.
    6. If your mate still offends, don't head for the hills just yet. Some clothing detergents can prove to be a bad mix with a fella's scent. Ask that the next time he visits the laundry, he change brands—and give the stinker a second chance!

  • TEA DYE

    GGGRRR! Took  a tea bath this morning and forgot to pin my hair up! Sigh now my hair has been temporarily dyed a few shades darker.....  As much history as I reasearch you'd think that I'd not forget that women in the middle east have been dying their hair darker with teas and coffies for THOUSANDS OF YEARS!!

  • Your smile

    It starts in the corners

    Ever so slight and hard to find

    Then meets in the middle of your lips

    To form a bow-

    An elfin bow,

    That pricks my heart with

    Its invisible darts

    There is more to your smile than you know.
