Ya'll, every single time I go anywhere, I try to find the best natural food store in the area, just in case I need some supplement. (as most of you know by now, I am allergic to tons of pharmacueticals and use predominately herbals and supplements instead.)
Well, lo and behold, look what I stumbled upon when checking out Irving (where Flylady's party is going to be tommorrow.) It looks exactly like a Peoples' pharmacy as found in Austin. If you are in the Dallas, Fort Worth area, you might want to give them a try. Believe me, I will be checking them out this weekend while I am there and I will let you know what I find ;-) Here is the information I found on them!

Flylady! in Dallas!
Have you checked out Flylady's website yet? www.flylady.net It includes how to organize your life with basic routines and oh so much more. If you are sick, or going through stress, this internet support group could easily be just the thing you need. If you have ADD, or ADHD, for check her out. It could completely turn your life from chaos to calm.
Flylady is going to be in Dallas this Saturday. Yahoo is giving her a free party in honor of having reached 500,000 members. And I'm going. Her website sent out a request for people to do an interview. I thought you might like to see what I sent back. Here goes:
Yes, I can do the interview. But I don't know if you want me. I have basic routines down, thanks to Flylady, and our lives run so much better. I have been doing ths for about five years now. I usually do the weekly cleaning, and quite frankly my husband usually does it with me...which takes about a half an hour total and wow, it winds up being fun. It just gives you such a feeling of satisfaction. we have fallen off of the five minute pick up before bed routine because I fall asleep in the lounge chair watching tv. And Leanne, what a woman! There are only two of us who eat out often, but I have at least two of her cookbooks, and I love them. When our lives are hectic, seriously stressed to where I can't even think, I always copy (on my copier) a week of menus with the shopping list and head to the store. And that's it, that's about all I do. But this little I do has revolutionized my life and I wish I had had them forever. I can tell the interviewer that the routines have have not only created calm in day to day activities, and calm when going through stress like here comes a hurricane, but they have also redirected my life during down times. In the past ten years I have faced a huge amount of betrayal and rejection from very close family members, largely due to money. But even during my most hurt periods, I would still find myself crawling out of bed, pulling up the covers and thereby starting my morning routine! Tears and all! (even camping when my husband is still sleeping LOL I would be pulling up my side of the covers) Other than not having a messy home, daily routines did something for me mentally. Each routine reminded me, each time, "I can take care of myself emotionally. I can do this. Each day I can take care of myself emotionally just like I do these routines physically. Even if no one else is there for me, I am strong and resourceful and I can get through this." I bet all flybabies are like this. And that mental shift, alone, is simply amazing. Thank you Flylady.

Emergency Evacuation
I adore Flylady! This is what she wrote for emergency evacuation. I live in the south, in Texas. Many of my friends live along the coast. But no matter where you live, it seems we all have to be concerned with the possiblity of emergency evacuation for one reason or another, from the natural (fires, snowstorms, hurricanes,flooding, etc.) to the unnatural (spilled toxic waste from overturned tanker trucks or railroad cars.) When disaster hits, your adrenalin can get drained quickly, and there goes your health--the one thing you most need in an evacuation setting! Check out this list, and see if it can help you in planning for your potential evacuation, and in so doing, drain less of your adrenalin when the time comes. Thanks Flylady!
FlyLady here; There is not any STUFF that is worth giving your life
for. Please evacuated when the authorities tell you too.
Here is an essay I wrote to help you be prepared. It is a check list.
Keep this in your Control Journal. Please spend 15 minutes right now
and start. Don't say this can never happen to you!
Dear Friends,
Here it is that time of year again when we are faced with the threat
of Evacuation from our homes. We never know when we this could happen
because of fire, train wreck, floods or hurricanes. It is up to us to
be prepared!
1. PEOPLE: Have a plan for getting out of the house and make sure
everyone knows it. Have an emergency bag of food and water for your
family. Include wholesome snacks and treats for the children: dried
fruit, nuts, peanut butter, crackers and granola bars.
2. PETS: Keep pet carriers and leashes readily available to lead pets
to safety. Also take pet food with you.
3. PICTURES: Keep negatives or CDs of pictures in a lock box or at a
family member's home. Have picture albums in one place ready to grab
and go at a moments notice.
4. PAPERS: Have all your important papers in a lock box at a bank and
only keep copies at the house. This keeps you from panicking. If you
have them at home then put them in a folder that you can easily grab
if you have to move fast. Color code it so you can find it!
5. PRESCRIPTIONS: Take your medications with you. Don't forget the
ones that have to be refrigerated like insulin. Have small ice chest
and cold packs readily accessible to pack and go. If you have babies;
remember their formula or medications.
6. PURSES and PETRO: This is where you keep your identification,
credit cards and cash. Keep a stash of cash for emergencies and grab
it. You may not be able to use an ATM in the event of a power outage.
Make sure your car always has a half a tank of gas.
7. PROPER CLOTHES and COMFORT ITEMS: According to the weather
conditions; gather up a change of clothes along with outer clothing:
coats, rain gear, boots, gloves and hats. If you have babies remember
diapers. Remember to grab your children's favorite blanket, stuffed
animal or toy. A game or a deck of cards could keep them occupied and
calm too.
8. PLANNER/CALENDAR/ CONTROL JOURNAL: These documents have all the
information you will need from phone numbers, insurance numbers and
important dates. They are small and filled with things you don't have
to try to remember.
9. PERSONAL PROTECTION: Many of us still have that time of the month.
Be sure and grab a box of your preferred protection. It may be hard to
find if you have been evacuated. Stress can cause our bodies to do
strange things too. So be prepared. Take medication for cramps too.
10. PHONES, RADIOS, FUEL FOR THE CAR: Many of us have cell phones now.
Always keep them charged up and have a charger in the car or an extra
battery. They may not work in the event of power outages, but then
they might. Know which local radio station has emergency bulletins.
Keep your battery powered radio tuned to that local station and have
plenty of batteries for it. Also keep a old type regular phone that
does not operate with electricity. GAS PUMPS don't work without power
either. You can't leave if your car is on empty. So keep your car fuel
tank topped off when it hits a half of tank. This way you will have
gas to drive at least a couple of hours. Evacuation routes are usually
bumper to bumper traffic. Having a tank filled will keep you less
stressed.
11. PATIENCE: This is one of the most important things to pack. Keep
it inside of you so that you have a clear calm head. Having your P's
to Preparedness list guiding you will keep you patient. In the event
of an evacuation there will be lots of displaced people. Being patient
will make things less stressful. Your children need to see you calm
and collected. This will help keep them calm too.
We can FLY in the face of Danger and Emergency if we are prepared.
Don't wait till you are being asked to evacuate. Everyone thinks that
it could not happen to them. Well it could and it is up to you to make
sure you are prepared.
Don't wait! DO IT NOW!!
