Girl I love lush! But I've only used a few of their products, so I'll most definitely have to check out some more of their hair care! karma when I can
Sewing is so easy! Buy yourself a Kenmore machine if you don't have one. You don't need 8 million features on it for it to be good for sewing. I'll post my Bonnaroo quilts that I've sewn!! yah~
Finally got our Roo tix! So ladies, I'm off to France for a conference, in May 24-31, then leave for Roo on the 10th then back and two weeks later we are off to Rothbury! OMG I'm going to be burned out after that!!!
I took mechanical Engineering Tech in College and my career is "Nuclear Operations" in a Research Reactor that produces Medical Isotopes for the treatment of many different illnesses.
And Yuppers I do travel alot because I'm currently sitting on a board of Executives for "Women in Nuclear" for the Canadian Chapter. I love promoting women in our field of work and I've met the most amazing women that have become my personal DEAR DEAR friends!
All of the pieces like the "Bonnaroo 2007" etc, and the scene of lastyears bonnaroo with the trees and hills and tent are ALL SEPARATE pieces sewn onto a backing, and the lettering is actually separate pieces that are sewn on with like a hockey stitch that you would see on any sort of sports jersey its called a Zig Zag stitch and its soooo easy. Don't let those quilts fool you, they are super easy to make and pretty quick too.
I am sad though because between travelling etc I don't think I will have enough time to make more for this year. I think I'll just sew on to the green quilt the year "2008" to signify we are there again!!
I have never never been to France and my conference is in Marseille which is the very southern most part of France. I have never even been to Europe so this is a first. I travel alot but its always for pleasure to the Caribbean.

how do you keep your nether regions from being smelly in the heat of tennessee? this will be first roo, and all the people boasting about the showers they will get in VIP is already making me self conscious (since i'll be slumming it in GA).

just saying, I've yet to be at Roo and think to myself "damn that girl in front of me's nether region sure is smelly". (maybe cause it's covered by the variety of other bodily and other odors, plus desenitization)
Normally "That Region" is smelly because of body Chemistry. At least thats what I just saw on a show about WOmens Health....... The answer they gave for the "Issue" was probiotics and drinking more water.
To be honest, I'm still trying to figure this whole bonnaroo thing out, but I absolutely love how everyone is so excited about it!!!
As for the Kariza video, I did take a look at Youtube, but all they have is the vid of the styles....I was looking for the instructional DVD! I'm going to keep looking, but thanks though!

Soulmate those blankets are awesome!!! I have been thinking about making a Bonnaroo quilt for a couple years and just fail to do so, but one year, one year I will...haha....p.s. that sounds like quite a job you got there, and I hope you enjoy France, I've never been to that part but I loved it.....
As for keeping up hygiene levels in past years I always brought baby wipes and would just do a baby wipe shower everyday just because you will be caked with dirt, ecspecially if you have sunblock on...the dust just kinda sticks to you lol... but I never had a problem with my "special area", and like southgajd so eloquently put your probably going to be dealing with a million different smells... This year I am taking a camp shower, not cause baby wipes didn't work just cause I want to be able to wash my hair.......but if you're really worried about it you can always pay the $10 to use the showers in GA
Thorough "baby wipe showering" a couple times a day can keep you in pretty decent condition, in my opinion. I'm bringing a solar shower this year too, but like purplefuzzystuff its more so I can get the areas that are exposed to dirt and dust clean. Even if you don't have a solar shower, don't underestimate a bottle of water and a bar of soap, if you have a couple good friends holding up a big towel.
last year i really thought i was going to want to pay for a shower but i ended up being fine with just baby wipes. we had a shower thingy at our campsite and didnt even use it. i thik i had a little thing of body wash that i used under the fountain one time too haha. im just going to do the same ting again probably but bring stuff for a pay shower in case i feel i need one.
Yes I can't wait for France! I've been all across Canada for work and I love flying but I've never been to France or Europe at all!
If you have a Problem with the "Nether Region" I truly suggest getting some medication for that. But if you like, and this is a problem, try eating way way more yogurt that has probiotics in it. That show I was talking about was (I just remembered) Oprah! I love when she does shows like that for just women!
Just a tip about the quilts especially ones with words on it, you use double back Fusing. first you cut out the double back fusing, then you iron it onto the piece of material, then you iron that piece onto your quilt. Then you sew it on to secure it. when doing an applique quilt, alot of quilters will use double back fusing to secure their pieces.
