And like magic, the ugly skin thing is gone.

First of all, my sincere apologies for the terrible pictures. I was taking them because it was a good way for Charlie to see what was bothering him on his back. Don’t you just love the new capabilities we have with our phones?

Anyway. Here’s the rest of the story……

This spot had been growing fairly slowly on Charlie’s back for a little while. It was beginning to bother him though. Hitting the chair when he leaned back. And starting to itch.

I took this picture because he wanted to see what it was.

And it not only looks terrible, it didn’t look like anything normal. Neither of us are medical professionals, nor do we specialize in beautiful skin. But this spot was a bit alarming.

Since we are both passionate about aging gracefully, naturally, and in a healthy way, we are into essential oils and natural remedies. So we took that route.

We started trying iodine. It didn’t seem to be making much of a difference so we switched to essential oils.

Lo and behold, we found a perfect formula.

Frankincense and Myrrh diluted with fractionated coconut oil. We applied it once a day. Once!! And that’s when we remembered to.

An incredible 15 days later. 15!! The spot was gone.


We chose Frankincense and Myrrh because they are both very good healers. Frankie heals everything. Let me put that a different way – Frankie helps your body heal itself. Myrrh is like liquid skin. It’s amazing!

The two together are magic. They healed the skin under that spot and it must have fallen off at some point.

No prescriptions drugs. No doctor visits. No cutting or any procedures. We simply put the Frankie/Myrrh/FCO combo on there daily (or at least as often as we could remember. Pretty much daily though.)

It has been about six weeks since the ugly skin thing disappeared. So far, it hasn’t reappeared here nor there, nor anywhere. It’s like magic. Nature works like that, you know?



What would you do with a million dollars – every year?

What would you do with a million dollars – every single year? Not once, but every single year. That’s $83,333. every month. It’s mind boggling.

I am beginning to grasp the idea while working diligently this month on my network marketing business, doTERRA.

I’m in a two month training focused on getting our businesses off the ground. We are “launching” in July.

The training is being led by people making a million dollars a year – or more! In one case, she’s making three times that because she has this down so tight that she has achieved the top rank – and therefore the top pay – three times.

And all three accounts pay her every month.

Still. Over and over and over. Every month. Every year.

I am a working person. My collar is as blue as blue can get. We have been taught that work, work, and hard work is the way to live a righteous life. Good hard work makes you a good person.

Wwwweeelllll, come to find out, there’s good people that make a lot of money without working “hard”. Some work smart. Some work with courage. Some work with passion. Most of them don’t even think of it as work.

They make damn good money. And do you know what good people do with good money?

They do good things.

So I ask you – what good things would you do with a million dollars every single year?

Tell me in the comments. What good things would you do?
