Some Important Info...

Hi folks,

I am just had to share two sites that I thought would be helpful



http://www.movietriggers.com/


http://movietriggerwarnings.tumblr.com/

They are databases for movies with possible triggering events. For example: if sexual violence is  something you can't stand to watch...check the database.

I haven't had time to fully check them out, but this is a great step in the right direction!

Summer Vacation...

I will be going on a blogging hiatus for the foreseeable future.

I would like to focus on my flowers and my vegetable garden. Raspi and I have plans to build raised beds, double the size of our veggie garden, make compost bins, and possibly add an herb garden.

To accomplish my goals for this summer...I need to be online a lot less. So I may not post often. It doesn't mean that I have forgotten you, or that I won't miss reading your blogs.

I wish you all the best, and hope you have a fantastic spring/summer.

 

XOXO Finnley

Beauty is a Beast:

♦Photo-shop phoniness Hall of Shame Again...(Content warning: images of very underweight women, may be triggering to some.) 
♦If beauty hurts...why go along with it? This excerpt was a huge eye opener for me:
 
The FDA report states patients [Who have gotten implants] must get MRIs every two years to screen for “silent ruptures” of the silicone implants, which don’t deflate when they tear like saline implants so you don’t know when they’re leaking. That’s an extra $2,000 biannually for women who have elected to breast enhancement! Add it all up and the original $5K to $10K procedure will now cost a 25-year-old woman at least another $35K for re-implantation and $30K for the recommended number of MRIs throughout her life!
