    It does get frustrating. IMO part of the biggest issue in discussion IS: One "word" has multiple meanings and applications. And when two people are discussing a topic, and each meaning and applying one "word", in a different sense...the topic of discussion goes haywire. God Bless, Taken

    If you ever choose to use any essential oils, "without dilution, do not put directly on the skin." (Such as on the temples or forehead for migraine relief). But you can put some in a small dish near where you sleep. I have a little ceramic ring, that fits over a table lamp, light bulb, and can...
