not only is my head sudd...oh no. i'm so sorry!<br /><br />not only is my head suddenly itchy, but i'm having a PTSD moment. we had "the lice" back during the preschool days. well not me, but the girls. and no matter what treatment we used, those things were resistant. we even had to try that prescription lindane. awful stuff...i hated to put it on their precious bug filled heads. and that didn't even work!<br /><br />finally, i found something that did...an all natural treatment called lice rx that i found online. they were gone...until they came back. over and over.<br /><br />i couldn't figure out why or how this kept happening. well one weekend we found out...my poor mom, yes my mom(!) had a head full of lice. i guess she got it from the girls and then kept giving it back to them. i.felt.so.horrible.<br /><br />so i spent weeks nit picking, 2 girls and their grandma's head. then i ordered her the lice rx too. which by the way, years later is still in BOTH of our fridges-just waiting.<br /><br />and did i mention my head is itching?Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09342009516840251489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603114235004851878.post-55715262348656962812010-02-19T14:02:22.989-06:002010-02-19T14:02:22.989-06:00oh Tracy...I'm feeling for you. It happened t...oh Tracy...I'm feeling for you. It happened to us five years ago. The day after The Agronomist left for a work trip. I have never been so tired, and freaked out. I thought my five year old had dandruff, but couldn't figure out why It wouldn't brush out of her very long, naturally curly hair. She had had it for awhile, a long while. I beat you hands down for great parenting on that one. I felt like they were everywhere. It took me five hours to get rid of all the nits. She was a trouper and watched two movies. I even had a few. Now I'm a seasoned lice checker, and wouldn't bat an eye if they were back.<br />Just think, It will make you a great grandma!<br />DanaDana @ Bungalow'56https://www.blogger.com/profile/14925373078487563897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603114235004851878.post-45805703549012695192010-02-19T09:45:42.123-06:002010-02-19T09:45:42.123-06:00head lice?

You would, of course, have to meet me in the front yard and hand her over with no clothing, no blankets, no car seat, no LICE!<br /><br />xoxo, mAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603114235004851878.post-65860262636589264102010-02-18T21:18:05.882-06:002010-02-18T21:18:05.882-06:00Oh my gosh, Tracy.

I just can't even imagine what you are going through, yuk! I would have reacted, most likely, the same why you did:( As much as I was hoping the girls were coming down last weekend and visiting me in IN - I am now thanking GOD they couldn't make it or I would be dealing with all of this!! Granted, my washer and dryer are a bit newer, but the fact remains - I'm older!! This could happen to any of us just being out in public. I am so sorry for everything you have been through this week. Thank goodness for good friends that have helped you out. I love the support you have received and I still think you should write a book or even an article for the daily newspaper! Hang in there.

You are the best Trunk Keeper I have ever dealt with, so I am horrified that people were yelling at you - and here's my little secret - I don't think the Cookie tank is all that. (shhhh!) Hope you guys get it contained and can get back to your life again soon - and you TOTALLY need a new washer and dryer.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12373387407101516959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603114235004851878.post-20868903207792059372010-02-18T09:09:50.996-06:002010-02-18T09:09:50.996-06:00Thanks for the love ladies..and for your forgivene...Thanks for the love ladies..and for your forgiveness about the cookie tank.<br />..and LOL Jess..OMG that made my day.

Do you realize how important a cookie tank is in the grand scheme of life? <br /><br />Lice? no biggie. <br />Laundry? I scoff at it. <br />A million loads of laundry? Bring it. <br />But the cookie tank? THE cookie tank? I might fall into a puddle on the floor. And curse really kind people who have no control over the quantity of cookie tanks produced. And I might feel inclined to make a really kind person cry. It IS a tank afterall. For, like, a child. A child who will surely not even be cute sans cookie tank this year. Can you handle that responsibility on your shoulders? <br /><br />Sheesh. Do you need me to do some dirty work and take care of crazy people? Because I can. <3 <br /><br />Love you, Tracy, and I'm sorry that you have lice in your house. It's the worst! When I taught, I cringed at the mere sight of those little hair moving lice sticks. In fact, my head has started to itch now. I think I might have it...Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12779467969018815350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603114235004851878.post-65435101995780570952010-02-18T08:01:15.646-06:002010-02-18T08:01:15.646-06:00LOL at Mathmom - I feel the same way!
