Cub Scouts

Well once again I worked at the Sandia Heights Cub Scouts Day Camp! 165 boys from First - Fifth grades! I have run the Scout Store for the last 6 years! It's a lot of fun & I love working with the boys! I also put in the ladies restroom (which is usually right behind where I am sitting) a 2 minute spa! I figure that these ladies need some prettiness in their day! So in the restroom I put some pretty (fake) flowers and some chocolate. I also try to put some air freshener in a pretty scent. Oh and some nice lotion. This idea came from my co-worker in Santa Ana, Heidi Cohn. Heidi is married with 2 boys. So when they moved into their new house she decided that her house would be a boy house. The colors would be in the earth tones so that when messes were made it wouldn't look too bad! Her oldest son's bedroom had a huge walk-in closet! His room backed on to the master bedroom. So they took and divided his closet and she made her "Testosterone Free Zone!" Her husband helped and they put into the little room they made shelves on one side. They painted the room a beautiful pinky-mauve and then she put on the shelves the shelf liners that hang down and are lacey. Her husband also found this beautiful chair for her and had it re-apolstered in a big cabbage rose print. There was also rose carpet in the room. This room measured about 6x8 feet! Her boys also knew that they could not cross the carpet. And so the "Testosterone Free Zone" was born. I figure that a guy in a house full of ladies doesn't have to have an extra room. He can just go out to the garage and work in there!
