I've been waiting all day for the UPS truck to come and deliver my package. While on my way home this morning from the bank I saw that sweet little brown truck pull out of our neighborhood and I was giddy with excitement...and then I was totally let down when I didn't have a package waiting. I've spent all day listening for that truck. Finally around 6:30 (yeah....6:30, and we're talking PM, 1830!!!) the truck pulls up in front of my house while I'm catching a new episode of Intervention (and damn, that is one depressing show, but I'm addicted).
It was like Christmas morning!

I used to use s.ecret soft solid. For whatever reason it made me smell. I was dry but I smelled like b.o. I am now using mens adidas and it is working just fine.

I'm very interested to hear how your homemade deodorant turns out.
