    Fashion with Aunt Flow

    Actually, tampons were invented in 1929 and submitted for patent in 1931. They were first sold in 1936. I was amazed to learn that, too! This website I found features some vintage ads...this is thought to be the first brand of "internal sanitary napkin" marketed. http://www.mum.org/faxAd.htm

    Fashion with Aunt Flow

    Wow, GoldLeaf - thanks! I am like you - I hate going to the doctor or having procedures done unless it's absolutely necessary because it just makes insurance that much more expensive, not to mention I feel like a hypochondriac, reacting to every little thing that I think is wrong with me. I...

    Fashion with Aunt Flow

    Thoughts, comments, suggestions? Just bringing this oldie back to the top. Does any one have any insight on what types of herbal remedies ladies might have used back in the day? I realize with modern technology we have those lovely head packs from ThermaCare and Midol, but what do you...

    As A Kid, What Were You Like?

    Shy or outgoing? Shy around strangers, very bossy around my friends (not much has changed, I suppose!) As an only child I had to grow up a little quicker than most kids my age. I got along much better with adults than kids. Active or a couch potato? A little of both. We'd always play outside...

    Shooting on Virginia Tech campus

    I'm not speaking solely to the incident of school shootings or the like, I'm speaking in a more general sense of kids/young people being able to bring questionable objects into a school building in the first place. When I was in high school, we were on lock down a couple times because some one...

    Shooting on Virginia Tech campus

    So, so sad. It troubles me deeply to think that our children and young adults can't even attend school any more and be safe. :(

    Vintage styles for short hair

    I just have to laugh how we as ladies cycle through hairstyles. It seems like every six months or so I'm itching to get a new 'do, so I get it cut short (like Pink's - wicked cute, btw!). By the time it's grown out a bit, I'm wishing it was longer, but then I get it all chopped off again. Now...

    Jeans - help please

    I am really intrigued about the www.makeyourownjeans.com site... Being a shorty with an average waist and larger hips it is impossible to walk into a store and buy a pair of pants that fit well. The regular pants fit will in the hips/waist area, but are about 4-5" too long. I can't buy petite...

    ...me three! I have to buy clothes that are about 1.5-2 sizes too large every where else just to fit across the bust!

    Yes, I'll take the pink one, thankyouverymuch :D I really need to stop buying clothes...although, if I get one of the jobs I interviewed for, I'll *need* some new work clothes....hmmm....;)

    Vintage styles for short hair

    I always keep my hair this length (give or take a couple inches) just because it is so much easier to deal with. Admittedly, I'd like it a tad longer for ponytails, but I'm content with this length. I have only tried two vintage-ish styles with my hair (that I've worn in public) - the style...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    :offtopic: , well kind of... You know what really peeves me? I have weird feet to begin with, but my little pinky-toe is uber weird...it is so small and when I wear certain sandals or open-toe shoes sometimes the little guy likes to sneak out from the cozy confines of the shoe!
