Burn treatment

EVERYONE PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH YOUR LOVE ONES!  IT’S VERY IMPORTANT!

WOW!!! Real interesting! Something I did not know, could come in handy.

A young man sprinkling his lawn and bushes with pesticides wanted to check the contents of the barrel to see how much pesticide remained in it. He raised the cover and lit his lighter; the vapors ignited and engulfed him. He jumped from his truck, screaming.

His neighbor came out of her house with a dozen eggs and a bowl yelling: “bring me some more eggs!” She broke them, separating the whites from the yolks. The neighbor woman helped her to apply the whites onto the young man’s face.

When the ambulance arrived and the EMTs saw the young man, they asked who had done this. Everyone pointed to the lady in charge.

They congratulated her and said: “You have saved his face.”

By the end of the summer, the young man brought the lady a bouquet of roses to thank her. His face was like a baby’s skin.

A Healing Miracle for Burns:

Keep in mind this treatment of burns is being included in teaching beginner fireman. First Aid consists of first spraying cold water on the affected area until the heat is reduced which stops the continued burning of all layers of the skin. Then, spread the egg
whites onto the affected area.

One woman burned a large part of her hand with boiling water. In spite of the pain, she ran cold faucet water on her hand, separated 2 egg whites from the yolks, beat them slightly and dipped her hand in the solution. The whites then dried and formed a protective layer.

She later learned that the egg white is a natural collagen and continued during at least one hour to apply layer upon layer of
beaten egg white. By afternoon she no longer felt any pain and the next day there was hardly a trace of the burn. 10 days later, no trace was left at all and her skin had regained its normal color. The burned area was totally regenerated thanks to the collagen
in the egg whites, a placenta full of vitamins.

Happy Erinday

Yes, Erin returns to us today. I have to spend some time talking with her about an issue that developed at the Hern’s. Sorry, not gonna tell you what this is about.

Nina and I are going to Weck’s for breakfast today. They have some nice specials they were pimping on TV this morning and it worked, they reeled me in! Weck’s is insane with their potatoes, you get pounds of them with every breakfast. Good thing I like potatoes.

Talked to Beth this a.m.  I enjoy talking to her on those rare instances that we can. Busy lives make it hard sometimes. Sounds like she’s got a great trip on tap for next month. Drive safe when heading south you two!

Gotta go. Nina said she’s ready.

My Twilight Years ~ Clint Eastwood

As I enjoy my twilight years, I am often struck by the inevitability that the party must end. There will be a clear, cold morning when there isn’t any “more.” No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat.

It seems to me that one of the important things to do before that morning comes, is to let every one of your family and friends know that you care for them by finding simple ways to let them know your heartfelt beliefs and the guiding principles of your life so they can always say, “He was my friend, and I know where he stood.”

So, just in case I’m gone tomorrow, please know this.

I voted against that incompetent, lying, flip-flopping, insincere, double-talking, radical socialist, terrorist excusing, bleeding heart, narcissistic, scientific and economic moron currently in the White House!

Participating in a gun buyback program because you think that criminals have too many guns is like having yourself castrated because you think your neighbors have too many kids.

Regards,

Clint

And another winner from my mother!

Yesterday

Some wonder why we keep going to el Rialto Restaurant in Vegas every week. Last night’s experience will explain this to them. We went without a reservation last night. The bar was filled and all tables were reserved so we sat in the main restaurant. Five minutes later the hostess waves us into the kitchen and takes us to the bar where a table has been cleared for us and we were seated. Got to love that sort of service.

As it stands now, the sale of the condo will close on Wednesday and the money wired to ML’s account here. ML is still unaware that her condo was sold. We will tell her when she asks what happened to the place. She will be shown all the documents then and she will be allowed to keep copies. I will tell her that the originals need to be kept by Christina for her tax records and that will make her happy.

I FedEx’ed another set of signed and notarized paperwork to CK because the first set had not arrived as planned. Stupid Post Office!

Yesterday’s wind was unrelenting! This has to stop sometime, I hope. This morning there was a breeze and I hope it doesn’t grow to anything more as the dray progresses.

Today

We have no plans for today. I may head to Sam’s and get some steaks for dinner, but that all depends on how nice Tori is to me today. She’s been drooling for steak for the last month or so and I’m sorta thinking of steak for tonight.

If I go to Sam’s, I may take my trailer and pick up some lumber that Tori needs for shelving. I may also get my birthday/Christmas present from Nina last year, a combination propane and charcoal grill. I like charcoal, Nina doesn’t. She likes propane and while I don’t mind it for grilling, I prefer the taste that charcoal adds to meat.

That’s it for now folks.

It’s truly amazing what happens when you let go of all the negativity and drama. Your days become so much better and easier.
