Lemons

Yesterday I had to have a post mammogram. That is what I am calling it. You know where you already had the mammogram and they call back to say "You need a more in depth test but hey don't worry". So any way I am sitting in the little room in that paper blue shirt waiting for my post mammogram results. The television is on HLN or some stuff that I have no interest in. You would think they would do Lifetime Network Movies or something. On second thought I guess not. The movie would be right at the good part and women wouldn't leave. I start digging through the magazines to find something to read. I can't just sit still. I didn't bring my knitting. Shame on me. All the magazines are about losing 20 pounds in 30 days, re-doing your home at a garage sale , and going green. I picked up the newest Family Circle. After flipping some pages and skimming some articles I found a tidbit of info worth keeping. Use a lemon on your armpits if you run out of deodorant. The article didn't specify it being sliced or cut but I assume you would. Now I have pondered over that for quite awhile and see that as a great tip. You are at a crowded , overheated bar or restaurant. You are sweating to death. You worry that you are reeking of b.o. Order a drink with a lemon slice. When it arrives swipe that lemon slice under your armpit and your worries are over. I would probably ask for two lemons though. One for your armpits and one for your drink. I know this tip won't make you lose 20 pounds, or re-do your house but I definitely think using lemon for your deodorant is going green.
