Living Life Fully and WD-40
“I used to think that going to the jungle made my life an adventure. However, after years of unusual work in exotic places, I realize that it is not how far off I go, or how deep into the forest I walk that gives my life meaning. I see that living life fully is what makes life - anyone’s life, no matter where they do or do not go - an adventure.” ~ Maria Fadiman

WD-40? Well an old Ranger Buddy sent me this intriguing list of over 40 mostly practical and useful things you could do with this household product. Well it sounded “to good to be true” so I went to the source of all knowledge http://www.snopes.com/ and found out that is was mostly true. Here is the link - -fun stuff, especially if you have bug issues!  http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/household/wd-40.asp Â

An addition for the WD-40: It removes crayon from clothes.
I know because my son left a red crayon the side knee pocket of his jeans. They went through the washer and dryer before we knew. We sprayed the WD-40 on all of the Jeans and let them sit over night. The next day the jeans had no trace of crayon. Also took the crayon out of the dryer barrel.
Have 2 boys is an adventure in and of itself.
Make it a good one.

Ok, Kirk, I have to write again….you know how they say that there is no such thing as coincidence? If I told you a little history of my first year of marriage and the job I got in Australia, you would believe that statement if you don’t already. Here is another thing that might make you believe it….it also is reinforcement in case you ever wonder if the random thoughts you send really help or get to the right people at the right time. Let me tell you why I reply tonight.
Last night as I was pulling into the garage, I scraped the side of my car against the garage door frame – wooden with white paint. It scraped the back quarter panel of my car – white paint about 2 feet long. I knew my husband wouldn’t be happy. Of course, he is out of town so when I told him about it, he said, go have it fixed. When I read your T4D this afternoon, I gave it a try….the WD40 worked! My husband still hasn’t seen the car, but I know he is going to come in any minute and ask me where it was…thanks!
Thanks, Melissa
