Service Saturdays

Today is my great nieces wedding.  I personally wish they would wait until they were older, but no one asked me and I won't tell.  It's just such a long time  to be married when you start at 21.  You know - has she had any fun and has she sowed any wild oats yet?  I love them all to death.

So I apologize I have been trying to keep up blogging, emailing, but I am a little late reading posts - but I will - so don't give up on me - and next week will be a little rough too I am having company - but I will get to it.

 

Last week Carol from Imagination wrote to me about this little OFF device that her grandchildren had bought her.  She has BIG mosquitoes where she lives.  She said it worked and was like a miracle.

Now my grandson is sensitive to mosquitoes too and he welts up - one time he swelled so much his hand skin broke and got cellulitis.  So I bought him one as he was going to be spending all day with his dad outside for the 4th of July.   He did not come home with one bite.  I was really careful to go over instructions with him.  The good thing about this product is you do not have to put anything on your skin  and you can put that little unit near you and it puts a circle of protection around you.

 

Now Cheri from Chez Cheri-

I  know some of you own GUNS but this is something  to think about...
If  you don't have a gun, here's a more humane way  to wreck someone's evil plans for you. Did you  know this? I didn't. I never really thought of  it before. I guess I can get rid of the baseball  bat.

Wasp Spray -   A  friend who is a receptionist in a church in a  high risk area was concerned  about someone  coming into the office on Monday to rob them  when they were counting the collection. She  asked the local police  department about  using pepper spray and they recommended to her  that she get a can of wasp spray  instead.The  wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to  twenty feet away and is a lot more accurate,  while with the pepper spray, they have to get  too close to you and could overpower you. The  wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until  they get to the hospital for an antidote. She  keeps a can on her desk in the office and it  doesn't attract attention from people like a can  of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby  at home for home protection. Thought this was  interesting and might be of use.

On the  heels of a break in and beating that left an  elderly woman in Toledo dead, self defense  experts have a tip that could save your life.

Val Glinka teaches self-defense to  students at Sylvania Southview High School . For  decades, he's suggested putting a can of wasp  and hornet spray near your door or bed.

Glinka says, "This is better than  anything I can teach them."

Glinka  considers it inexpensive, easy to find, and more  effective than mace or pepper spray. The cans  typically shoot 20 to 30 feet; so if someone  tries to break into your home, Glinka says  "spray the culprit in the eyes". It's a tip he's  given to students for decades.

It's also  one he wants everyone to hear If you're looking  for protection, Glinka says look to the spray.  "That's going to give you a chance to call the  police; maybe get out." Maybe even save a life.  

Did you also know that wasp  spray will kill a snake? And a mouse! It will!  Good to know, huh? It will also kill a  wasp!!!

 Eliminate ear mites. All it takes is a few drops of Wesson Corn Oil in your cat's ear... massage it in, then clean with a cotton ball. Repeat daily for 3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers the mites, and accelerates healing. 

Now - Here is my disclaimer.  I never thought about having one on Service Saturdays - but maybe I should.  Some of my materials comes from forwards, some I see in the news, some I tried myself, and some others have sent me.  Now hopefully they will be true and will work for you. I am just a blogger like you.

 

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Love, Chatty
