I was searching for ideas to fix chapped lips this morning and came upon this useful site - lots of home remedies for so many problems just using items we have on hand.  For my lips I went out into the garden and picked an aloe vera leaf, rubbed my lips with the sap, left it on for 15 minutes, washed off and I did notice a big difference in just that 1 application.   It will become part of my morning routine now.  Allow yourself plenty of time to browse this site, I spent a long time reading everything  ;D

My aloe vera plant has always come in handy, especially when the GKs were younger.  Any bites and they would head out to the garden to pick a leaf.  GD used to call it 'aloe bera' when she was tiny.

Cute.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

It's one thing I will not stoop on! One day if we need it we will have the best care. Hopefully we won't.

It's easy to negotiate in the public system if you have private cover. They will wear the cost of your excess if you use your private insurance. Harder in the private system.
