I bought these on the recommendation of a friend and they are wonderful. I have an 12 year old who sometimes has a hard time falling alseep on school nights. Imagine that! LOL - she has no problems staying up late on the weekends and falling asleep but go to bed on a school night is a major "drama" scene. She has been like this since she was a baby.
I didn’t know what to do and her doctor told her to limit her carbs. Well she drinks no caffeine after 1 p.m. and very little sweets. There was nothing OTC that we could give her, until a friend recommended these.
If you have ever used Hylands Teething Tablets and had them work like magic then be prepared to have the same experience with these.
Ingredients
Active Ingredients: Aconitum Nap. 6x HPUS, Calc. Phos. 12X HPUS, Chamomilla 6X HPUS, Cina 6X HPUS, Lycopodium 6X HPUS, Nat. Mur 6X Hpus, Pulsatilla 6X HPUS, Inactive Ingredient: Lactose NF.
Directions
Children ages 2 - 5: Dissolve 2 tablets under tongue every 15 minutes for up to 8 doses until relieved; then every 4 h ours as required. Children ages 6 - 11: Dissolve 3 tablets under tongue every 15 minutes for up to 8 doses until relieved; then every 4 hours as required. children 12 years and over: Dissolve 4 tables under tongue every 15 minutes for up to 8 doses until relieved; then every 4 hours as required or as recommended by a health care professional.
I have never given her more than 8 tablets in a night and it does relax her so she can go to sleep. I tried 4 tablets one night, when my mind kept raising and they really do work. I quickly became sleepy, slept all night and woke up feeling great.
Homeopathics are great because if it doesn't work in four doses (at 15 minutes apart) then you know that it isn't the right remedy.
YET... you don't have to worry about side effects or that you just gave a sugar and artificial dye loaded medicine to your little one.
The tablets dissolve on the tongue and are made of milk sugar with the homeopathic on the surface. IT is important not to touch the tablets!!! Tip them into the cap, tip the little one so that they are lying back a bit and kind of sprinkle them on the tongue (or if they are big enough then ask them to stick out their tongue). I try to not touch the cap to the mouth to keep germs off of it.
Seriously, a safe and helpful way to encourage restless/nightmaring/wound up kiddos to sleep!
Pros: a natural sleep aid for our kids
Cons: don't touch them with your fingers
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend them because they are a fast and safe way to help your kids get to sleep at night.

Il Divo's CD's (The Promise CD/DVD and The Christmas Collection CD) and I have to tell you I really like them both. I have never listen to their music before. All I knew is that they were discovered or hand picked by Simon Cowell.
I think my favorite is the Christmas Collection, that just might be because of the time of year. LOL
Amazing Grace has always been a favorite of mine and they do such a wonderful job with it!!!!

Bob bought me a beautiful amethyst tennis bracelet for Christmas. I had worn the bracelet twice and one of the stones fell out. I didn't even have time to get it appraised. Luckily we had the replacement warranty on it.
Took it back to the store on December 29th.
Picked up the bracelet on New Year's Eve. Wore it out to dinner and couldn't undo the clasp. Bob was helping me and a stone popped out.
New Year's Day
The warranty will cover putting the stone back in but to get a different clasp I need to get an estimate. I am going to wait and see what the estimate is and then I might have to talk to Zales corporate. Why should I have to pay to replace a clasp that doesn't work correctly?
January - February 2009 back and forth saga
We explored putting a different clasp on it but they wanted $260 to replace the clasp. That it was Bob paid for the bracelet, back at Christmas time. When the called us to give us the estimate, someone put the clasp back in the will call bin and I had to call during the middle of February to find out what was going on with it. They were putting a rush on it to replace the stone and the clasp that included a safety catch.

Wore the amethyst bracelet yesterday that Bob gave me for Christmas. While I was cooking dinner I suddenly realized it wasn't on my wrist. Naturally, Kristina and I ran to the library and Aldi's after school. Called the library, they hadn't seen it. Couldn't get the number of Aldi's from directory assistance, they only had the corporate number. So I ran there, talk to the gals. They hadn't seen it and one did sweep after I left. I did re-trace my foot steps and looked at the items that I picked up. Ran up to school and one of the evening custodians was there so he let me in the classroom, it wasn't there. Hoping the pre-K teacher found it and turned it into the office. I even stopped into the library.

Pre-K teacher didn't find it, neither did the custodian.

I went out to Zales.com because I am still trying to get my bracelet replaced, that fell off my wrist back on March 16th. Every time I get an email, I look to see how much it is. Well today, I went a little further and wrote a review to be posted for the bracelet and then emailed their customer service department. Basically describing the situation and how it had to be replaced, and then the next one had to be repaired and then I lost it the day I was taking it to get appraised. I also commented that I have bought bracelets from Avon, Target and Walmart for only $20 and have never had them fall off my wrist. Well after submitting my review, I received a $50 discount code. The bracelet was marked down from $350 to $279, so it would be $229 with free Fedex shipping, I casually mentioned it to Bob, never dreaming I would get this type of response. He told me to order it, as long as I don't wear it until it is on the insurance policy. I am so thrilled! I have been trying to save a little bit each week to buy it myself!!!

Received a phone call from our local Zales store and they are replacing my bracelet for free, and will continue to honor the warranty we have. Woo Hoo. Immediately got online to see if I could cancel my order, no such luck because it was alredy in shipping. Talk about fast turn around time.

Fed Ex attempted delivery of the bracelet but needed a signature.
April 15, 2009
Fed Ex just delivered the bracelet and no sooner had I shut the door and the local store called. The manager has offered to replace the clasp for a lobster claw clasp for $50, not the $260 we were quoted back in January. So we are doing that!
Now all I have to do is return the one we paid for. I will return it to a different Zales because the situation is a little awkward.
See what writing a nice and polite email can do for you!!!
Zales has a customer for life. Once the entire situation is taken care of, I will be writing them a letter not an email, thanking them for their wonderful customer service!

Yes Man - Jim Carrey

Yes Man is a return to form for Jim Carrey, who combines some of the manic energy of his early work with a touch of maturity from his dramatic experience. The script causes the film to suffer at times, but Carrey's chemistry with Zooey Deschanel is unmistakable and allows the movie to carry through to the end. While Yes Man is certainly not the comedy of the year, it's a film that most Carrey fans will enjoy that may even deliver for those who didn't like his Dumb and Dumber stage.
The film stars Carrey as Carl Allen, a loan officer who is very well-acquainted with the word “no.” Pity the poor person who’s applied for a loan from him; having been dumped by his girlfriend three years ago, Carl has rejected every offer, proposition, request, question and notion that comes his way. When his friend Nick (Michael Higgins) gets him to come along to a self-help seminar, he runs afoul of the seminar’s head, Terrance Bundley (Stamp). Terrance preaches about the power of the word “yes,” and manages to talk Carl into a pact where he says yes to everything that comes his way. After several mishaps with this, he meets Allison (Deschanel). Allison is a bohemian type, very much Carl’s opposite, who conducts photo-jogging classes and sings in a rock band. Of course, the two hit it off and Allison’s free spirit finds plenty of opportunities for Carl to say yes, except one.
Bottom line it is a good rental!

I did this as a spur of the moment on Friday, since I didn't have the girls with me. This was a first for me and I loved it!!! I will never have my eyebrows waxed again! After the threading was done, I even got a mini-massage in my eye area!
After the tech was done, she even trimmed up some of the wild hairs!
Very fast procedure and much more relaxing than waxing!
My eyebrows have never looked so great!
I'm taking my tween daughter to get her eyebrows done.
