This weekend marks the 26th Annual Laughlin River Run, an event which draws an estimated 60,000 motorcyclists to our area.
We haven’t ventured over to partake because Pearl has an earache & fever, plus the winds have been howling.
Speaking of motorcycles, I once had my driver’s license picture taken while sporting helmet hair.
Yep, husband 2, that bastard, had the bright idea we should take his motorcycle to the DMV.
My Mom’s home remedy for earaches was melted butter.
Melt the butter in a saucepan (we didn’t have microwaves back in my day), and pour directly in the ear canal. Cap with a cotton ball.
I googled this, and sure enough, it is an old remedy! Right along side blowing cigar smoke in one’s ear, or heating a brick and resting your head on it.
Do you have any home remedies to pass down?
I once lived on San Pablo Dam Road.
When I called my credit card company to tell them I lived on the Dam Road, they didn’t believe me.
Surprisingly my statement arrived although addressed to San Pablo Road.
When you google the phrase Oh No She Didn’t, you get this…
Apparently, yes she did!
My daughter, Natalie, loves to google images! In fact, she’s the one who taught me.
Natalie-ism:
Natalie: Mom, spell Barbie.
Me: B-A-R-B-I-E
Natalie: Mom, spell games.
Me: G-A-M-E-S
Natalie: Mom, spell balls.
Houston, we have a problem!
