ON THE LIGHTER SIDE

Sometimes I just like to talk life.  Usually the topic is regarding a faith element.  But today it isn't.

I want to tell you about one of my latest adventures which began last night.

First, I must admit that I am a glutton for new health ideas.  Remember the time I heard that crushed garlic in shampoo would rejuvenate hair loss?  Well....count me in.

After about a week there was no sign of improvement.  Quite the opposite really.  I began to smell really badly.  My hair took on bad breath.  Nasty!

So yesterday I was at the As Seen On TV store at the mall.  I love that store!  Ah...the stuff...the really good...creative...and handy....stuff!  I was there for the purpose of picking up a couple of gifts for a Christmas exchange when I happened across something I had forgotten all about.

Do you remember the 1-800 commercials for a detox foot patch that pulls toxins from your body and through your feet?  Yes!!!!  I got me some!!!!

So I followed the three instructions; adhered the slim packet to the bottom of each foot and then secured with socks for sleep.  I was to leave them on through the night for the best results.

When I awakened...I'm not joking...I could smell trash burning.  It took me awhile to become clear headed.  As I walked down the hall to check I noticed that where ever I went the odor was consistent....and then I remembered. 

I can't say that these detox patches really work for I've got three more nights to follow.  But I can tell you that the pads were black with body soot of some substance.  Oh...gross, gross, gross! 

All I can say for now is that either I am less toxic today or else my socks discolored the detox patches!  For $12.99 I'm figuring there will be great health advantages.  Don't you think?

Just don't give us the details of any colonic experiences!! There's no one like you, Terry. That's why we all love you so much.

You are a HOOT! You might also want to consider exercise... though that requires much more work than going to sleep with patches! If only it were so easy to remove the toxins in our lives...
