MICHFEST!

Ok... I'm a music festival/concert/music junky... (and my hubby is probably laughing now because I say that, yet I suck at learning about artists, the names of songs, etc...)

And this year, I was asked to go to MICHFEST and after discussions with the hubby, I'm going!!! I have tried VERY hard not to get so excited for it yet since it's not til August but I. AM. PUMPED!!!!

Here's a video of one of the artist I'm super pumped to see!!! YAYYYYYY!!!! Enjoy!

Peace Out,
Me :)

I have discovered medicine's BLACK GOLD.

Ok, I PERSONALLY didn't discover it... but I have just discovered it for myself and I am currently wondering why I have NEVER heard of it before, and would love to share the news as well...

The "it" I'm talking about is: Ichthammol Ointment. Or as some others refer to it: Drawing Salve.

Seriously.

It's pretty amazing stuff.

Now for the grossness:

I have an abcess right now the size of a large purple grape. We will not say where but just know that it was VERY painful. Like, well.... kind of like childbirth if it was touched.

I've had it for a month too... not as big and as painful but yes, had it for a long time...

So John hands me this cream and says use it, works great.

Asked what it was and he didn't really know... so you know me, miss nurse-i-need-to-know-everything-about-this-cream-I'm-about-to-put-on-my-body self started googling it.

Those are just a few of the results I came up with...

So I decided, what the heck... taking an antibiotic sounds like it's worse!

24 hours later, actually probably less.... It worked.

Done. Sold.

And you know what???? Had I of known of this stuff before? Maybe I would still have a freakin toe nail!!! Someone owes me a toe nail.... even if that someone is really no one but just sayin.

So any whos... couple warnings... Yes. It does stink. BAD. Also, Yes. It literally looks like tar/poo mixed together.

But it's good stuff.

Hope this helped someone!
