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.

I love the fun idea that Netflix has this month, one which I have never made but very interested in doing in the near future. A Vision Board, should be interesting to see what the kids come up with compared to us adults.

Vision Board

To keep the kids chasing their dreams, map out those big ideas on a DIY vision board. Cut inspirational words out of magazines, print photos of favorite characters or add your own knick-knacks and trinkets. Learn how to make your own here.




Now when I think of movies about creating your own destiny I think about Back to the Future, The Philadelphia Experiment, The Time Machine (1953), Butterfly Effect, The Terminator, Looper, or pretty much any other time movie you can think of because I think everyone at some time in their lives would like to go back and change at least one thing in their lives which would change if not re-create their 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. 

What Jammy Jams has to say about their product. 
On “Once Upon A Rhyme: Lullaby Renditions Of Hip-Hop Classics”, Jammy Jams explores the melodies of old school hip-hop songs and brings them to life with calming renditions for parents to enjoy along with their babies. The parent can take a stroll down memory lane while creating brand new memories for baby. This album soothes the inner and outer soul. You will be amazed as you listen to soothing lullabies featuring the melodies of acclaimed old school hip-hop songs such as Run-D.M.C.’s “Rock Box” and Coolio’s “Gangstas’s Paradise”. The soothing sounds are what Jammy Jams is all about. Experience these popular tunes in a whole new way with baby today.

1. Hey Ya (Lullaby Rendition of Outkast)
2. California Love (Lullaby Rendition of 2Pac)
3. The Real Slim Shady (Lullaby Rendition of Eminem)
