Boy, that's a new one on me. I've never had any problem with mine.

I know that sometimes oils will eat into some plastics (pit them) but

I haven't had it happen to me. I've got some still in containers that

I made back in May for Prom Season and they're STILL fine.

I've purchased the clear with white tops and ones that are totally white.

Where did you buy them from? I think I would write them an email

and ask them why they're doing that to you? I don't know what else to tell you.

Re: M

Hey cuz, having a problem with those plastic pots that you used for your alo vera gel perfumes. I used the frag that you told me about called Amber Romance, and that was ok, but when I use any of the other FO it seems to eat away at the plastic, and that is why I am having a problem getting them open. Is there a reason the Amber Romance doesn't do that. Is there anything else I can put this in. I have 50 of these little pots, and now I am afraid to use them. I have already ruined 10 of them.

I've bought them from different places. I got clear with white lids

from StuffLikes, all white ones from FromNatureWithLove

and totally clear ones from BetweenFriendsToo. I've not had any

problem with any of them - yet.

Re: M

I cant find the invoice for those pots, so I have no idea where I got them. Can you give me the site for the ones you bought with the white tops on them. They seem to be a better plastic. I know the FO does eat at the plastic measuring spoons, so I guess I should have thought of that. But people seem to be concerned if it does that to plastic, is it going to hurt there skin. I dont sell any of these, I just make to give to my friends. But I was embarassed when they told me that they couldn't get them open. Dont forget to send me the site.

Gosh, that must have been quite a while ago. I don't remember it

at all. I buy f/o's from all different companies. Maybe you just

used too much f/o in the glitter gel so that it ate at the plastic.

From everything I've heard from people the best plastic containers

to get is PET. That's like top of the line. Maybe you could use

them for a solid perfume. With the beeswax in solid perfumes

maybe the f/o wouldn't be so bad on the plastic. Try a small batch

and see what happens. How many containers do you have left?

Re: M

, do you only use the FO from that company that makes Amber Romance in those little bottles. Maybe there is something different about those Frag. Have you ever used any of the other frag. from other companies? The pots I got were from one of the sites you gave me several months ago. They were only .40 a piece, so maybe they were too cheap. I wish I could find the invoice, so I dont order from them again. You probably dont remember which one you gave me, do you. Oh well, I guess I will have to invest in some new ones. Can you think of something I can do with these little ones. I hate to waste them.

I just found this email I skipped over. Dad's surgery is

a "day surgery" so that's not bad at all. I don't remember

being told about Uncle Dick having cancer. Was his

prostate cancer, too?

Re: Attn: Cuz

When they implant these seeds, does he have to stay in the hospital, or is it as an out patient? I sure hope I can talk my dad into coming down for at least a weekend. I know I wont have to convince my mom, but dad is a little hard to get moving. I am sure by then he will be feeling a lot better. I really dont want to leave him here alone. Although, he might like having some time to himself. I worry myself sick though. Well, I hope all goes well with your dad. It sounds like a lot easier way to cure this type of cancer, than doing the surgery. Uncle Dick did well with his, so keep the faith. Talk to you soon.

I thought I had answered it, but maybe I didn't. I buy fragrances

from all different companies. So it's hard to say whether different

oils from different companies would make a difference as far as

ruining the containers.

Re:

Yes, Uncle Dick had the same kind of problem about 8 10 years ago. I remember coming down to see him when he was in the hospital. He had the surgery though, and seems to be fine now. Did you get the other email, where I asked you if you used any kind of frag. that wasn't just in those little bottles from the company that sold Amber Romance. Those bottles say designer frag. Is there a difference.

I must have missed something. I don't remember you writing about

a trip you were taking. I take it you were supposed to go to Cancun

or something with Tony? When was this supposed to be? I know how

you feel, though. We've hashed it back and forth with our trip. I don't

think they could give me enough tranquilizers to get me on the plane

now. I think ALL the airlines should give refunds to those people

that don't want to fly no matter if they were nonrefundable tickets

or not. It would be one thing if they could GUARANTEE our safety,

not that's impossible. So I guess we can kiss ou $232 goodbye.

Re: Re: Upsetting week ()

I feel that the money we loose on this trip is well worth it. Ours would only be $180 and Tony still refuses to cancel. Believe it or not, he is considering going to Can Cune with his brother if I dont want to go. I am terrified because of all the neucular sites in Penn. I really think this is there next move. I know if they hit one of those, we will all be gone. If I am going to die, I want to be with my family and friends, not on some island laying in the sun. I am so furious that he would even think of going with his brother. I have such anger about this, that I am afraid his suitcases will be waiting for him when he comes home. That is if there is a home to come to.

Just a quick reply. Sharon stopped here yesterday for a

short visit but I don't remember her mentioning anything

about Dad maybe going with her. She did mention she was

going out to see you all, though. Maybe she hadn't talked

with Dad about it yet. I don't know if he's up to it or not

since he has his radiation treatments every day.

Joe's family lost a real close friend of the family to cancer

yesterday. He was only 62. I'm sicker than ever with a

wicked cold so I shouldn't cook any food to take for after

the funeral tomorrow. So I've got to go to the store and

see what I can get as far as ready-made food. The guy that

died has a sister (also close friend of family) and she's got

cancer, too. She's only 55. She's going thru chemo and I

don't know whether to go to the funeral parlor tonight or not.

I always worry about people going thru chemo coming in

contact with colds and flu because their immune system is low.

I'm really in a pickle here because I SHOULD BE THERE.

Their mother is still alive at the age of 86 and has buried

(3) of her kids so far. It's really been tough on her. I hope to

God I never have to go thru what this poor woman has gone

through in her lifetime.

It's NOT going to be a good week. Have to run ( I mean crawl)

to the store. Catch you later.

Re:

Sharon is coming down next week for my parents anniversary. I asked her to see if your dad could make the trip too. My mother would be so happy to see him. I know she has been talking to him a lot lately, and is very upset because she hasn't been able to get down to see everyone. I sure hope he can come, it would be a great surprise for them. Talk to you soon.

Apples for quick sugar and cheese to even out the blood sugar for the next

two hours. Does it seem to make a difference what kind of food your

daughter eats?

I've noticed that " real food " rather than junk (candy, cookies) works

best--we do a lot of apples w/peanut butter. In fact I've noticed that when

she's really hungry (and OCD symptoms more evident) sweets tend to make

things worse rather than better. If we're away from home I'll run through

McDs for a hamburger rather than keep cookies, etc. in the car.

Yes, sweets are bad for low blood sugar...big spikes and big dips....it gets to

be a vicious cycle...go for the meat every time...

HI

All are OK here flooding is near but not to a dangerous level for us in my

neighborhood only flooding here is the diapers from my sisters new baby

boy heehee..........boy can little guys fill up a diaper. My house is full of

family, left over from Thanksgiving lol

Mike and I went to Walmart yesterday and the state hiking park right behind

Walmart is under water (3 blocks from my house) My yard is a bit mushy too

but we went without rain for so long that Im sure the yard needs it. I am a

bit disappointed, with all of this rain, a cold front was supposed to moved

in and bring SNOW.....we didn't get snow just RAIN. We did have a few

tornados buzzzzzzz over our house this week, scary since it was at night.

Good News Sara is 10 today !!!!!!!!! we all went out for dinner, 13 of us

(family) last night (in the RAIN) and today she took 20 party bags full of

treats for Reg Ed and cupcakes for Sped. Tomorrow night is our DS Assoc.

Christmas party and we will go to that. Sara will have a sleepover with two

3rd grade friends following the party (one ds the other not lol) I boohooed

all the way home from school today, praying and thanking the Lord for my

wonderful daughter........10 years of awesome memories have been made and

hopefully many more years of memories to come

I cant wait till Jan to see so many of you, looks like ALL of my girls will

come including the Tater-Tot heehee

Thank you all for your concerns.......I hope Bill isn't under water in his

new house, haven't heard from him yet but Ona and I are dry and maybe the sun

will shine today.....Told Sara I ordered it for her heehee

Kathy mom to Sara ....now 10....oooooh my
