I did not write a blog post yesterday because my chair has been broken since May 24. Today is June 8. I’m pretty miserable! My ankles are swollen, even though I am wearing compression socks My left foot and seems to be popping off of the pedal because I feel terrible I’m without my legs extended.
I thought that I could just endure it, but this is kind of rough guys! I started my Spring/Summer chapstick and my new Chapstick for Saturdays this Was going to be Wild Cherry. I was looking forward to it because not too long ago, it was Valentine’s Day and Sean brought me a baby Red Velvet blizzard. He brought us all a doughnut as well. He got me Chocolate Glazed because that used to be my favorite, but now I have to eat Chocolate Dip because it’s softer. He got my Mom a glazed doughnut.
I thought it was a very odd thing that he got a cherry doughnut, but he said that it looks good and he wanted to try it. I was reminded of my Dad because he used to like chocolate covered cherries that we used to get him for Fathers Day. I asked Sean if he liked it and he said that he did. I told him that it was genetic because grandfather liked cherry stuff too.
I needed a new flavor for my Saturdays this Spring/Summer So I searched on Burt’s Bees website. I was going to get four of my Cucumber Mint anyway. It went back-and-forth from being available to not available and when I get paid, it was not available so I decided to get it from Amazon. One tube of wild cherry was nine dollars, but you could get a four pack for 13. I went for the deal.
Well, that didn’t work out so well! It does NOT taste like cherries at all. It taste minty to me. I asked Sean to smell it yesterday and he said it smells a little bit like cherries, but he can smell the mint as well. He said that that’s the base they use. That makes sense because I didn’t like the Apple Cinnamon Crisp once I got for last winter. I still have three tubes to use. I had my mom’s apple pie in mind when I got it, but it missed the mark. I will be using it regardless this year after Thanksgiving.
When it arrived to my house, Katy Perry was playing in my head. That’s kind of an old reference because that song came out my first year teaching. I don’t kiss girls either so it wasn’t a fitting song.
The song I changed to, even though it does not taste like cherries, was a Sara Bareilles song that I love! She says ‘cherry blue skies’ in it. Because I don’t particularly like this chapstick, it taste minty so I guess I don’t mind it a bunch. I have made it a Wild Cherry Weekend this Spting/Summer!:
it kind of really stinks sitting in this broken chair, but my Mom talked to Ray this morning and Jujuan is making a house call on the 15th. It does not look like my chair will be fixed on June 17. That stinks!!!
