Cough Syrup Recall Rescue
Hey peeps! I just wanted to drop you a line real quick on how to solve a problem you might have and get something FREE out of it! As you probably already know, more than 40 over-the-counter children’s medications are being recalled, several of which are for colds, coughs and allergies. As parents across the country scramble to find an effective alternative for their children’s coughs during the 2010 season, one company is coming to the rescue.
Honey Naturals, the makers of ZarBee’s, the leading all-natural children’s cough syrup that is safe and effective for kids ages 12 months and older, wants to put parents at ease during this chaotic time and make them aware of this all-natural way to calm their children’s throat and respiratory irritations. The company is now offering all consumers affected by the recall the chance to receive a bottle of ZarBee’s Children’s Cough Syrup for free. Parents looking for a safe, natural alternative can receive a free full size bottle of the product over at ZarBee’s. Head on over and claim it!

Bartender Daddy
I give my kids mixed drinks. Yes, that is right….I play bartender to all three kids. See when we go somewhere, like to the store or to run any other errands, we are constantly getting something to drink. It seems like through all of the running around we work up a mean thirst for some beverages. Most of the time we don’t even get halfway through the bottles of various sodas. This is where my “mixin’ it up for the little ones” comes in to play.
In our fridge we have enough half-drank 20oz bottles of soda to fill a swimming pool. I’m going to be frank when I tell you what I do with all of these. When My kids walk up to me and say “daddy…I’m thirsty” and I say “ok, what do you want?”, they always reply “soda! ” They don’t care if it is Sprite, Dr. Pepper, Coke, or Pepsi. If it fizzes and makes them be able to shake the rafters with tremendous burps, they want it. Since becoming a mixologist, I have come up with all sorts of carbonated concoctions. Root beer and Mountain Dew morphs into “Mountain Beer”, Coke and Dr. Pepper takes on a new persona known as “Coka Pepper”, and Sprite and Cream soda become just plan nasty!
Some people think it’s gross or think that I am mean for giving my kids “leftover” or “old” soda. They like it and it adds excitement to anything we have left that we didn’t finish.

The Vaccine Dilemma
This past Friday we had to take Peyton to his one year checkup. In addition to them informing us that he is extremely tall for his age, they told us that it was time for another round of injections! I don’t like when any of my kiddos have to get shots. A considerable amount of other parents really have a problem with injections and their supposed link to several different impairments or disabilities. I really don’t know what to think of all of the different studies and claims that are floating around about this subject.
Worse thing is all of the after effects of what these injections do to their poor little bodies. Fever, headaches, all around flu like symptoms?! Don’t you think it might be better to chance some of these diseases rather than dealing with the strange and nasty side effects sometimes? I know many of you feel strongly about this and some don’t. Feel free to leave some feedback on how you feel. I think also I will be talking to a special guest on the next podcast about this very subject!

Swimsuit Edition
I wanted to start off this week talking about Memorial Day. I think some people have the wrong idea of what it means. I could have sworn that Memorial Day was a day to honor our fallen soldiers, those who have served in our military and defended this country’s honor and freedom. I think some people though, think that it is a day to wear bathing suits everywhere while they do their daily tasks. My job requires me to go into several shopping establishments on a daily basis. All throughout the day all I saw were people in some hideous suits.
One lady came into a store with a suit on and the bottom part of one of those cover-up thingies and I thought I was going to get some sort of poisoning just from smelling her and all of her coconut smelling oil glory. I mean she could rob the place and make a getaway so easy because this chick was so greased up she would slip through whoever’s hands tried to nab her.
Next, at another location, you had a guy who dances right into a store looking for some more liquid nourishment. While strolling in the store, I notice that this guy is soaking wet! Drenched! Like suit-is-still-sticking-to-him-in-his-neither-regions-with-droplets-all-over. Hello? Is there a pool outside, a hot tub, a sprinkler, or a Crocodile Mile I past up on the way in? I mean this dude was soaked. So that means if he was swimming he immediately jumped out, grabbed the keys, got in his car wet and drove up to the store fast.
Finally, you have the dynamic duo of swimming sisters. Two girls, both bikinis, huge sunglasses, perfect hair, total full of themselves. Except one was teeny skin and bones and the other must have been stealing the skinny one’s food. Chick was like 3 times the little ones size. It was just wrong that “biggin” had to wear this ridiculous bikini. I mean in some parts I couldn’t even see some strings, only vague parts where they entered and re-appeared. Don’t get me wrong, skinny, fat, pudgy, frail, stick, or big-boned, it doesn’t matter to me. Just have some sense of style or modesty in some cases…..or get a mirror. Well until next time another set of weirdos cross by path.
Forehead Snooze Button
Is there some rulebook that kids have that I don’t know about? I s there a rule that says the only day that Mommy and Daddy could sleep late, you must wake up early and not even attempt at going back to sleep? I didn’t get this “rulebook” when I was a youngin’. I didn’t get up at the crack of dawn and then insist on eating or peeing the very second I woke up. NO, I was a good boy. I got up, went to the living room, turned on the TV, made sure that the volume was low, and proceeded to watch Saturday morning cartoons and didn’t bother my parental units until they bothered me! That’s another thing……what the heck happened to quality cartoons on regular local network stations? Anyways, now all my kids want to do is wake up and then wake the other siblings up just to start the day and cause havoc! Maybe once computers start running everything and Skynet has started up (tee-hee), we should install a sleep button to all children’s foreheads. Couldn’t you just see that “Daddy, I’m hungry—{{{push the child snooze button}}}—and BOOM! Your child drops to the floor for any amount of time that you set over at snoozemykid.com (not a real site, but thought about buying it though) and lets you get some more of that rest/sleep that you deserve.

Mother’s Day
This is going to be a very special post today, since I am writing this on Mother’s Day. My mother is an extraordinary woman. Her name is Jan and she is the person that I’ve known the longest in my life…..HA! I knew her before anyone else made an imprint in my life, so she molded my standards, my behaviour, my tenderness, my nurturing side, and pretty much my entire life. I just wanted to say thank you Mom for always being there no matter what I had done, no matter what the outcome was going to be, or whatever stood in my way. By your kindness and encouragement through my growing up, you have molded me into a parent that goes the extra mile, sacrifices so much, and spends so much precious time with my children. I am so fortunate to have you in my life and it is a honor and privilege to be your son.
Happy Mother’s Day Mommy,
Ryan
