I was happy

today i ended up suprising my friend at the mall, i caught her literally just as she got off,

any way it was cool we talked hung out,

than we went to bath and body works!

Never been in there before, but I LOVED IT!

She would open like the cap she smell it than hand it to me "smell" i would! ask me what i thought, OMG Lot of good stuff, Really nice, I always have a fun time hanging out with her!

her favorite and ming now too! Japanese cherry blosssom! it smells amazing!

it was funny at the cash register i sliped the cahsier $10 and i put my finger on my lips

and my friend goes to swipe the card and shes like wow it just went down 10!? cool?

the lady said ya its a secret santa thing.

She didnt catch on but its coool, I used my secret stash of cash so, it stays secret thats cool

but it felt nice doing something nice.

I definatly had a fun time, we went to gamestop, but i was like ok lets go! after two seconds.

So anyone else been in there? whats your favorite!

Ming was the "Japanese Cherry Blossom Shampoo" i think

PS: to clarify, I am not out to her, I am thinking about it but ugh! i dont think i should although i dont think she would say anything i mean i dont know its crazy she kinda feels like a sister. anyway back to bath and body works

apperantly its with victoria secrets also right now they are having a buy 3 get 3 free sale on anything!

I noticed that some things smell little different! from body wash to lotion, etc.

O they had a mgaical lotion i cant remember name but it actualy started smelling better the longer it was on her!

she would stop and smell and be like smell that its getting better right

Also after that omg their was such cute dragonfly earings they were studs i believe tiny not big at all! at a stand. they were small, they had i think opal two wing s and two wings birthstone!

I think this is te right section.

I know when im out and start transition im going straight there to pick up sometuff!

So once more Whats your favorite body wash, lotion, or whatever and why?

I like the Japanese Cherry Blossom cuz it isnt to strong or two sweet, its just right!

Hey Cynthia

I haven't been in a bath and body works for decades, but I am a sucker for anything that smells like cucumber. I love it so much I would spend my last dollar on it. Funny though I don't have anything that smells like it. Thanks for the post I will schedule it in to my next trip to the mall

The Japanese Cherry Blossom is also one of my favorites. also stopped into victoria secret before work this morning and was looking around, and smelling all there lotions and perfumes. The bad part is I am always missing the test strip and hitting my hands bilfoldld, purse, what ever is in the way, and by the end of this I start getting a headache from all the overwhelming smells at the same time, but I will live happily with and perfect my aim :P .

Luv

I always wondered how anyone could tell the difference in scents after inhaling the first one and today I stopped in an actual perfume store. Before smelling the first strip, the sales clerk ask if I wanted the 'coffee beans' first. Silly me, I thought she was talking about a scent name and said sure. Then she handed me a tiny jar of coffee beans. Now I know the secret. :lol:

They make great stuff, we gets lot's of their coupons and specials here.

Currently I use Bath and Body works "Sea Island Cotton" body creme, and lotions. That scent is great, and nice way to finish up from shaving !

@ Cynthia of Creation:

Girl, first, let me tell you how much I LOVE the screen name you use on here: Cynthia of Creation! AWESOME! Great, great, great name!

While I always try to stay positive with my comments, I've got to tell you: Don't know about that avatar you use. Kinda gruesome. But, hey, who am I to say? If you like it, by all means go with it.

BATH & BODY WORKS!

New Albany, Ohio powerhouse that now is in the big leagues of retailing but started out as one woman with a great idea and lots of gumption. Bath & Body Works is my store of choice whenever it comes to fragrances, emoluments, etc. Why?

They've got great stuff. Their prices are very reasonable. Their stores are slam-dunk awesome and just a pleasure to shop at. These people totally understand the aesthetics and mindset of their target shoppers. It's just SOOO much fun to be in their stores.

EVERY JANUARY AND EVERY JUNE, THEY HAVE THEIR SEMI-ANNUAL SALE! SHOP THERE THEN! YOU CAN BUY LOTS OF STUFF AND AWESOME PRICES!

My fragrances are exclusively from their stores. I'm alternatively using these fragrances from Bath & Body Works:

* Cool Citrus Basil;

* White Citrus;

* Citrus Sapphire;

* Midnight Pomegranate;

* Warm Vanilla Sugar; and,

* Lemon & Lime No. 1818.

These scents work with my body chemistry. I buy them ALL in Body Splash form rather than in either au de cologne or au de parfum forms. Body Splash form is the most dilute, so you can use it generously, it will last for hours and the price is right.

Want a heavier scent? Go with either au de cologne or au de parfum forms. Or, you could layer the shower soaps and body creams in the same fragrances if you want to.

Bath & Body Works will very generously let you try their products. Do so. Why? Find fragrances and products YOU like. Find fragrances and prodcuts that WORK with your body chemisty. Citrus-based scents work well for me, and I like them very much. Coconut does too.

You CAN go upscale at a store like Nordstrom or some such and pay $300 or so for 0.5 ounce of some hoitie-toitie fragrance, and there's nothing wrong with doing that. Me? Bath & Body Works any day of the week. Great stuff. Great prices. Great place.

Hope you like it. Happy shopping!

;) Lacey

Bath & Body Works' "Cool Citrus Basil" Bodysplash is a splendid blend of citrus essences kissed by an accent of basil which blend together into a marvelous melody of fragrance. If it works with your body chemistry, it will MAJORLY work with it and just totally pop and rock the house! Neither the citrus nor the basil predominates. There is a synergy that's just amazing! Love it!

You have Italian in you? Rock on, hon! Lacey Girl is half Italian and half Jewish (not really a race per se, but why belabor the point?)! Oh, Heaven help us!

Oy veh, Don Corleone, I have come to pay my respects! You schlemiel, I'm gonna make ya an offer you can't refuse! Bubalah, it's a family thing, you understand?

Hey, babes, about your avatar ... I'm just messin' with ya! Forgive me, hon! Looks cool to me. In fact, it rocks in a sinister sort of way, but then again, so do The Rolling Stones, and they are my all-time favorite band!

Peace & Happiness to You!

B) Lacey

Eh, goomba? Lemme be your yenta! Just 3 more days of the Big Semi-Annual Sale at Bath & Body Works, so hie thee hither cop some Cool Citrus Basil Bodysplash, honey! Score some Coconut Lime Verbena Bodysplash too if you can find it ... majorly good stuff!

I think your avatar and name is way cool Cynthia !

Was just back in the store yesterday with the girls. They keep sending me more coupons. With 4 women in this house that stuff goes fast.

This time we bulked up on "Secret Wonderland", body lotion and creams. I just used some this morning after shaving and have to say, it's like a floral explosion, very nice.

My daughter is into "Sweat Pea".

      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
    • Ivy
      Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all.  Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable.  I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk.  So that "F" is lie, and a fraud.  My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good.   I'm just frustrated these days.  Just a bit of a rant.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      You probably remember the Target PR fiasco.  I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there.  She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again.

      Nothing about eradicating TG folk. 
    • Ivy
      If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me).  That seems suicidal.
    • Ivy
      True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us.  It's the parts that do that are the problem.   I see the  few problematic statements as being a big problem.  Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated".  I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good".  If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that.
    • Ivy
      Yeah.  There are already laws against assault.  I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women.  Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks.  And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero."
    • Abigail Genevieve
      Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender.  Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with.   In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines.  Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally.  I can't see some of them standing up in court.  In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court.    Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line.  Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people.   People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements.  Overall, I support it.  Of course, I have some reservations.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening.   For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation.  They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id.  It is unimaginable.  Therefore, wrong.   So there is this strong headwind.   I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting.  I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it.  That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings.  The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think.

      I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator...    I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far...

      Best wishes to you as you take this step ... many blessings to you!

      Not sure.  The perp is a minor.  The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration.  See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law.  Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail.    Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls.  He, overwhelming her with height and weight,  assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there.   Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom.  Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy.  TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy.

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
