5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 8

In light of all the marathon talk, here is my 'profound' thought for my 3500th post...

The only way you'll EVER see ME run 26.2 miles is if I am being chased 26.1 miles!

excellent profound post

I am a bit confused. Costa Maya is a just region(city?) in Mexico, not a country -- although Mexico is also not listed. But then wouldn't just visiting Cozumel cause the same problem?

Costa Maya is an endemic region for malaria - Cozumel is not - both are regions in Mexico. The CDC site lists areas that are endemic - and unfortunately Costa Maya is one of them....

I guess those of you up north are fighting with the pollen & allergies like I was about a month ago. I took Allegra for a while and am happy that our pollen count has gone down now. Or, at least I'm not having issues with whatever is blooming now.

DS put his own sunscreen on yesterday. He has a couple of red patches where he missed spots on the back of his arms. Note to self, apply sunscreen for ds while on vacation...

Oy... poor thing. I usually have the opposite problem. I put it on Erin, and forget to put it on myself!!

Oh ... sort of medical question for those drs., nurses or others who have been through this. Ashley got her fingers smashed in the door when my parents were here ... bad grandparents!!! Anyway, her nail is coming off. I know, GROSS!!! Last night Bruce trimmed it as far to the cuticle as he could. Is there anything else we need to do? Will the new nail just push the "unglued" part up as it grows out? It gives me the creeps every time I think about it.

We ran in to a family that has done DCL multiple times. She recommended a Bullfrog spray-on sunscreen for the girls. She and her DD have red hair and are very fair skinned. Anyone else ever use this?

yes - the new nail will push the old one out.... It may fall off - if it is still attached - but you're afraid that it will get caught on something - just put a bandaid over it....

Thanks Virgil!

This is worse than me having to deal with pulling Emily's tooth and taking her to the ER to have her lip stitched. I'd NEVER make it in the medical field.

I've never used it, but have heard good things about it.

And, while I'm at it, another to Ray... because he has been trying to keep his b-day 'under the radar'... he hasn't been on the boards long enough to realize that EVERY birthday gets around here.

AND WHO WOULD BE CHASING YOU THAT YOU WOULDN"T STOP...other than me
And yet another thanks for the b-day SHOUT OUT



AND A U TOP OF ME CHASING MY WIFE

You didn't chase me... I found you wandering in the rain... remember?

I like the Coppertone Spectra, not sure the spf. I have a niece who has VERY fair skin and she used Bullfrog or the Spectra. I also like the Avon sunscreen and bug stuff. For this cruise I will have the Avon, Safesea and the Spectra. Hopefully no sunburn on this trip!

Yes I remember, I meant currently not in the past...

Love the bullfrog!!! Not so much with the spray on and the sport versions.... The regular and the kids versions are great and I usually only have to reapply once for a full day of swimming!

Down side is that it is expensive and hard to find around here... Sunscreen hogs buy it all when they find it!! Who me??? NOOOOOO!!!

Hmmm ... maybe I should go pick some up before it all disappears.

I need to start looking for a travel size contact solution. I picked up a bottle of the Bausch & Lomb (sp?) the day the warning came out. I returned it for a refund. I hate lugging around a big bottle when I don't need to.

Awfully quiet around here today!!! Everyone must be working hard...

 

[CajunGirl2]

I'm out of here - time to get the girls. I'll try to catch up from the weekend tonight - if I can fit it in before 24 starts. Don't have to cook dinner tonight. We're still eating leftovers from the weekend - chargrilled hamburgers & hot dogs.
