Taking Stock In Chapstick


Whoooosh, Whoosh, Whooooooooooosh!

Did you feel that?
That was another 30-40 mph gust of wind.

Not only are my allergies "wigging-out", random pieces of trash keep ending up in my yard but my lips...

OH MY LIPS!!

They are KILLING ME.

It's been over 2 weeks of some sort of Hellish wind. And I'm seriously fed up with it. I've gone through 1 Chapstick, 1 Blistex, 1 Aquaphor and 1 Burt's Bees-wax and my lips are still dry. I thought I lived where it was humid? The good ol' south?

Oh where, oh where have you gone sweet humidity?

And WHY is the wind still blowing? Seriously!

I'll take the wind if it keeps bringing with it 70-80 degree temps!

OK so don't gag, but I heard this tip from a friend and it is great. For sad chapped lips try using Lansinoh's lanolin cream (you know for boobies..did I just say boobies on a friends blog? It is no longer family rated).

Oh, Rachel, you are so funny. Texas is not humid, my dear; try living in Puerto Rico and then get back to me. You'll sweat a lot, but the ocean breezes are awesome and your lips and skin will never be dry. :) If I had the means, I'd send you all out there this Summer so you could spend it at the beach and the rain forest! Do wishing I could count?

Let me know if you find an actual remedy. I need to use it too!
