OK, so you might not think that tissues could inspire a post....but if you've ever had a cold...and I'm sure all of you have, you'll understand. I found the best tissues yesterday. I'm sure they're not new, but yesterday was the first time I had seen them. Puffs with lotion....and Vicks. Yep. Vicks. Just the thought of Vicks takes me back to being a little girl. Sick with a cold. Trying to sleep it off. My mom would always rub Vicks on my back and on my chest, then tie one of my dads hankies around me. And at nighttime, she would fill the vaporizer full of it, too. As strange as it might sound, just the smell of those tissues makes me feel just a little bit better. I left them at work yesterday......so now I gotta go blow my nose...at work. Funny how just the smell of something can bring back special memories. Thanks Mom. xoxox
