    czarina33, before I forget again, you were correct. It is not the hard water causing the fingernails hair, and eyebrows to chip and break off. It seems to be related to the lack of humidity. Going from the shower or bath (90% RH) to outside (11% RH) directly after (dressed of course) seems to cause fingernails to act like shrinky dinks and break.

      Many years (like about 50) we visited friends in Arizona and the humidity was about 0 and when I laid down to sleep that night, I couldn’t breathe. The air was caught in my throat and I just choked. I had to sleep with a wet washcloth over my face that night.

      • And just the oppo in New Orleans with 100 or near 100% humidity many times…harder to breathe for the folks with respiratory problems. Lake Ponchartrain is the city’s northern border. Miss. River to its south. And just a little further south is the Gulf of Mexico. Lots of water around.

        I remember sleeping by an open window at night with air coming in when the attic fan was on. Wake up in a very moist bed and night clothes.

        Kinda like sleeping with a wet washcloth over your face.

        In Egypt we were miles inland from the Med and the Nile, it was pure Lawrence of Arabia desert. Temps during the day (they arranged for us to be there in August) were over 120 and humidity was really zero, we’d line up our soldiers hourly and everyone would have to stand in formation and drink a bottle of water. About four hours into the day your uniforms were caked with white mineral deposits, necessitating pills to replace what was lost.

        We’d get up before dawn and have out first formation before breakfast and as the sun came up to avoid the heat while we went thru all of the morning stuff. Funniest thing was that as the sun cracked the horizon there’d be a bank of fog rolling in, it was so thick you couldn’t see the person standing next to you. It would be there for about 20 minutes and as the sun rose it would just disappear. Poof,gone as fast as it rolled in.

        Your uniform would be very damp, the tentage and all of the equipment would be dripping and an amazing assortment of insect and rodent wildlife would appear out of nowhere to take advantage of the moisture. About an hour after sunrise the wildlife had disappeared again, your uniform was dry and you were back in the desert.

            I love the desert. We went out to the End of the Road, turned and went about 30 miles southwest. We were in the middle of a sea of rocks, there was sand but mostly it was a sea of rocks. Only landmarks were some scattered mesas off in the distance.
            The sky was almost jet black when you looked up but the air was crystal clear, it was amazing.

            You gotta go to Egypt, see the sights and all (including the Coptic monasteries way out ion the desert, but also get a responsible tour way out into the desert to really appreciate and experience it.

      You’ll have to try various creams for hair, skin & nails to find the ones which you can stand on you skin while they help keep moisture (some are just too greasy). Be sure to put them on wet skin or lightly towel dried skin to keep all the moiture locked in. I needed lip balm constantly, elbow & foot cream, hand lotion reapplied every time I washed my hands…

    LOL In a segment on F&F about sharks, the interviewee said if you see a shark don’t splash around, be calm, don’t act like bait. Don’t act like bait……….probably pretty good advice. But, I am not sure I could be calm if I was in the water and saw shark.

    My son, Brandon, Josiah’s twin, is beginning his blogging journey & sharing some of his poetry & insights here. Brandon is a champion for Christ who has known the way of suffering practically from birth. He, like me, is a cracked vessel that the Lord has seen fit for service. Living Water springs forth–what a blessing in the midst of brokenness…

    I normally don’t even read – much less post – CNN crap, but here it is just because it is crap. The characterization by person who posted it at lucianne.com: “As is typical of leftists, some of the alleged “misstatements” and/or refutations, fact-checking, are petty, picayune, nitpicking and nonsensical.”

    Keep this in mind the next time you read that President Trump has lied “10,000 times”.

    Fact check: Trump’s Orlando rally featured more than 15 false claims over 76 minutes

    …Errol Flynn’s ship, the Zaca…not the best of copies, but color photos of her are hard to find…Flynn knew everything about his ship……here he is in his chart room…

    …and checking the rigging…

    …charming, gifted, intelligent…you can see why the ladies went gaga…he was definitely a rake…and danger does attract.

    See the Zaca in action in this vid…”In The Wake of the Zaca”…

    For all of my friends who are blueberry fans, this pie looks like it will be delicious – blueberries, lime, and fresh ginger.

    PS: I am partial to lime, rather than lemon.

      Mmm. I like them both. Lemonaid is better with sliced limes, frozen, generously put in the lemonaid. And I love those little buggers. I keep meaning to try to make a key like pie smoothie and I forget.

      Thanks for the recipe!

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

    A prayer for Justice Kavanaugh and Col. Flynn:

    Prayer to St. Michael

    St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle;
    be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
    and do you, O prince of the heavenly host,
    by the power of God,
    thrust into hell Satan and the other evil spirits
    who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
