Zim's Advanced Vapor Rub Review + Giveaway

Zim's Advanced Vapor Rub Giveaway

Hosted by MarksvilleandMe

sponsored by Zim's

To be honest until now I didn't know there was a vapor rub made without petroleum. I grew up using the old stand by that most people have in their medicine cabinets. Being a parent I want to help my family through times of sickness as safely and as quickly as I can so they can get back to having fun. 

With Zim's Advanced Vapor Rub I don't have to worry about the children having so many chemicals absorbed into their system. Even though this is All Natural it is not Vegan. I counted the ingredients, only six. That is amazing in itself. I love it. 

The best part is that with the tube of Zim's advanced I don't even have to touch the vapor rub and chance getting it into my eyes, I can just squeeze and it comes out through the top. The top has little raised spots so that you can rub it on. 

What a great product.

You can purchase Zim's Advaned Vapor Rub here. Also Available at Walmart, Walgreens, CVS Pharmacy, K Mart, Rite Aid, Publix and also online at Drugstore.com.

Create Your Own Destiny

When I think of creating your own destiny I am reminded lately of my older children making their way in the world, with their own lives, spouses, children, and for my next oldest making plans to go to college. Something she has to decide for herself no matter how hard the choice is. 

She is finding that being an adult although sometimes fun can also come with lots of decisions she is not sure she is ready for. She isn't sure she wants to be what she has wanted to be for the rest of her life. Mind you with this particular daughter has always done things the way she would like things to be, she isn't like every other teenager out there. 

She wants to change the world, she loves listening to music from the 60's, putting together her own wardrobe by borrowing from mine and hers to make her own style. She loves to sing, act, make food, try new things, and is always willing to learn something new. 

She was asked for college who her role model was and her answer was that she does not have one, she paves her own path, she wants everyone to know they can be who they are all of the time and being like someone else is just holding yourself back from being the best you, you can really be. 

This reminds me a lot of my essays for college. I am very proud of her and a little more then excited to see what my children will create for their own destinies. 

Create Your Own Destiny.

Jammy Jams - Once Upon A Rhyme Review

This whole album had music that I knew, with my favorites being California Love (Lullaby Rendition of 2Pac) and Gangsta's Paradise (Lullaby Rendition of Coolio).  Great for those who want to give their baby something to listen to but also something Mommy and Daddy wouldn't mind listening too either. 

What we find fun to do in our family is have people guess what song is playing. It is always surprising to see who will guess right first. Some are fast while others are left shrugging their shoulders. Either way it is a great time. 

You can purchase Jammy Jams Once Upon A Rhyme Review on Amazon.
