Me in front of a Small World at Disneyland. Yes, I wore my ears all day.

I recently went out to California to hang out with one of my best friends and of course we had to go to Disneyland. No, we had no little children with us...Just two menopausal women hanging out with the famous Mouse. Cost of the plane trip, $350.oo. Being a kid again: Priceless.
Tell me how you're "being a kid again" these days...and keep taking your Remifemin!

Walk Softly and Carry a Big Search Engine

I don’t know about you, but if I stop and think about the internet, I am in awe. It blows my mind. What used to take a trip to the library and hours of research can now be done with a few clicks of the keyboard. We’re able to view unlimited information from around the world. Simply amazing!

The fact that I’m writing this and posting it on a blog where seconds later you could be reading it and responding, is nothing short of astounding! What a time we live in!

With great technology comes great responsibility and caution. We have to be careful not to get carried away with those moments of wonder about this vast interactive tool and be discriminating about the words and ideas on it. There is so much on the internet that is just…well…wrong! Look for the facts behind the stories and the science behind the claims. I can boldly invite you to go to www.remifemin.com and look into the science behind the brand. It’s solid. The most clinically tested brand…over 90 scientific papers.

Brine Shrimp Lied to Me

So, tell me, did you get captivated by the ads on the back of comic books when you were growing up? I did. (I know, that explains a lot!) I always wanted to send for the seeds and the X-ray vision glasses, but what really sent my heart soaring were the ads for a little family of monkeys. Now, I know I’m not using their proper name, but since they are still in business, I’ve chosen not to mess with the whole trademark thing…you’ll just have to read between the lines. The ad portrayed these engaging creatures, drawn by an illustrator obviously gifted at embellishment, as a happy family. I think the girl in the family even had a tiara! I thought that if I sent for them they would move in, take up a corner of my bedroom and fill my life filled with one happy family adventure after another. So, I did what I had to do to save up the money to send for the lovely monkey family. I did more chores, ran a lemonade stand, I scrimped and saved until that glorious day when I would mail my money in (stamps not accepted of course.) My payment would prompt someone in… maybe New Jersey… to send me my very own monkey family, complete with the girl who wore a tiara. The days passed slowly until the package arrived. With great anticipation I opened the small packet and followed the instructions to put my new family in water and watch them grow. I already was starting to wonder if you could grow such a large family of pets just from what looked like dust speckles, but who was I to question the magic on the back of a comic book? I watched the water and waited for the transformation. What appeared to be small pieces of lint soon came to life. What?
That’s it? That’s what I worked so hard for and wished for and waited for? Floating lint?

The point of all this is…brine shrimp lied to me. Many ads have probably left you feeling less than satisfied with what you were promised. I think that if you try Remifemin, you’ll find that it does what it promises. Keep coming to the blog and adding your comments. I’ll never lie to you.

Anyone else out there send for monkey families or prizes from the back of comic books?
