I have been.......

Whooh hooh! I'm looking forward to reading these.

I've been bedridden for a couple days, sick with a terrible onslaughht of cold. I've been wearing no perfume, of course. Isn't it sick to be sick in such a sickening heatwave? I've been praying for some rain!

Diggy, I'm thinking of you and your kid all the time, praying that he gets well soon.

I have been mentioning the good points of www.parfumo.com on the top of my Facebook page today.

Come one, come all.

I have been googling and ... WOW ! what do you know?

Get well, Chapeau!

I have been enjoying the heck out of my precious weekend. They are just too short.

Agreed. Too short, too fast.
I have been...bandaging up my arm. I opened my bathroom cabinet and accidentally sliced my arm with the edge of the mirror. I didn't feel anything, and it didn't bleed right away. I think it's because the mirror acted as a knife, it was a "clean slice". It's 1/4 of an inch deep, about 2 inches long. I showed it to my boyfriend and he freaked out. Then it spontaneously gushed blood. It didn't hurt at all; but he panicked, made me put my arm under running water, and poured lots of rubbing alcohol and put lots of bandages on. I appreciate what he did, but I think I'm the better nurse.

(edited because of some bad English--yeesh!)

He poured alcohol on it? Did you shriek? OMG.

I was actually OK! I didn't feel a thing.

Well, do not blame him that has seen too many action movies lately
The water and alcohol are not recommended when you need to quickly to stop the bleeding but sometimes at home similar approach is appropriate - when in the wound is likely to have remained a pollutant or particles, it is better for a short time to let it bleed to throw them out; water and alcohol contributed to this, and washed away. Believe me, I have my own extensive experience with this and self-treatment.
Of course - then is obligatory treatment with iodine or Rivanol (if in your country at all that kind is available) Ethacridine lactate is its active ingredient, may be is sold at you as Acrinol.
Info, just good to know (if you already dont) it is very, very useful in many cases of various injuries

I have been hoping that Chapeau and Hayven are doing much better.

I have been thinking that Diane needs a bigger bag for her trip to Canada.

I have been relieved that my son is feeling much better.

I have been browsing vintages today. I only came home with 3 new fragrances. Yes ONLY!

I have been smiling that YOU are the nurse ... but cannot bandage your own arm without help.

Take care.

This is by far the best news. Good to hear.

I have been unpacking damp/wet items from my luggage that was left out in the rain for unknown amount of time during our cancelled flight back from NOLA. What a nightmare. Our departure time was 4:30 to Atlanta then on to Charleston SC. We arrived in Charleston 1:00 am.

Now the good news I have been wanting to visit Bourbon Perfums and we did. I was told August Doussan began creating perfumes and the perfumery has been in business for 164 years. I bought 6 perfumes. One is Kus Kus, I was told that this is their best seller. They make the perfumes in the back room of the store. I took a few pictures and will let you visit the store with me when I download them.

I have been worried about The Emperor. He was not eating or drinking for about a day, and today he got sick (threw-up) three times. Could he have worms? I hope that this is just the aftermath of our heatwave and not something more serious than that...

I have been looking at their website lately.

Looking forward to the photos, Cincy, and it's great to have you back.

Shera, I would be concerned that Oliver wasn't drinking and take him in to be seen. Please keep us posted.

Good news: after resting for a bit to recover from the morning trauma, The Emperor drank a bunch of water, ate a hearty lunch, and "stuff happened" as it is supposed to.

Now he's taking his afternoon nap. I'll continue to monitor him closely, but I now believe that it must have been the heat that discombobulated his system. He is finally hydrating properly, so hopefully he'll be fine... Our forecast is ten days of moderate weather. Phew!

Me thinks HRH Oliver needs a big kissy poo from us cat lovers.

Lets go visit New Orleans, come on I know you want to see Bourbon parfums.

Wonderful news!

Agreed. Glad to hear it!

I have been indulging another addiction of mine....soaping. I bought some wonderful smelling new fragrance oils, and have been trying them out in liquid and bar soap.
