She loves that gum.<BR/><BR/>Isn't it interesting that everyone has their own scent or odor?

It was really strong in the library down in the basement. Also, that pink powder the school janitor would sprinkle on vomit.windarkwingodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04134633348375608134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12272116.post-1148622702236713262006-05-26T00:51:00.000-05:002006-05-26T00:51:00.000-05:00I know what you mean!

My guess is that they have filled the pool now...especially since my boys are counting down the hours for it to open on Memorial Day!<BR/><BR/>Also, there is a certain smell for the first day of school. Seems like you don't smell that until it is officially the first day.Jadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16662769207205940969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12272116.post-1148611800643632502006-05-25T21:50:00.000-05:002006-05-25T21:50:00.000-05:00I had a girlfriend that (in retrospect) used way t...I had a girlfriend that (in retrospect) used way to much Carmex lip balm.<BR/><BR/>It took me a while to be ok with T using it.

Still miss it to this day.<BR/><BR/>Livestock farms, remind me of home.<BR/><BR/>Rose lotions, remind me of when I was a kid and my gma would get me lotions all the time. <BR/><BR/>Good memories!
