My neighbor just came to me all upset because her husband has mesothelioma. I honestly had to ask her what that was and was heartsick when she said it was Asbestos Cancer. They have been married for 28 years and have a really good marriage too.  With all the medical advances with cancer, I can only hope and pray that he will survive this.  It’s a shame we couldn’t have figured out that stuff caused cancer before it affected so many people.  They think it came from his job too.

My hubby just came in from the garden with the strangest looking caterpillar I have ever seen.  It is about as big around as your pinky finger and about as long too.  It is a pretty light green but has about 100 tiny white babies all over it.  My husband said it is a ‘queen caterpillar’ and the babies will start eating her so they can grow.  I have no idea what kind of moth, butterfly or what the babies will turn into if they do turn into anything at all.  It was really neat looking.  Wish you could have seen it.

My son is thinking about refinancing his house.  I didn’t know you could get free mortgage quotes online but his wife did apparently.  She was surfing and found a great place that will give you a quote almost on the spot.  I think that’s just wonderful considering all the mortgage problems there are today with all the foreclosures and a lot of mortgage companies folding.  It’s getting tough out there these days.

The last time I did my grocery shopping I was pleased to find that they had Lipton tea on sale so I picked up several boxes. The problem is when I came home and opened one of the boxes in order to make a gallon of iced Tea, the bags more or less exploded in the hot water.  It made quite a mess everywhere.  I tried again, and the same thing happened.  I found the 800 number for their customer service department and gave them a call.

I received a heart felt apology and was sent several coupons in the mail for several free boxes of Lipton Tea Bags. Now that is what I call good customer service. Nice to see it’s still around.

My youngest son is at the age when he’s starting to break out on his face.  Bless his heart it just started this summer and I really want to try and get it cleared up before he goes back to school.  I found an acne treatment cream that came highly recommended by a friend. Seems her daughter used it and it did work wonders on her skin because I remember when she broke out. Well we’ll be trying it to see if it works as good for him as it did for her.
