This puzzle is made up of hundreds of pieces and uses rubber bands and toothpicks to build. This locomotive actually runs (as is shown in the video.) It is a tedious job but loads of fun and the reward is a gorgeous train that runs on a track, made of wood and takes many hours to build. For people who do not like to sit still and do nothing, these puzzles are a lot of fun and in the end, you have a beautiful and/or useful item finished. To date, my brother has spent many hours and is still not close to completion. I can’t wait to see the finished product and will share it here, as well. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #UkrainianBridge #UkrainianBridgeUgearsLocomotivewithTenderModel SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075TJX1VP/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

Ideal to share, keep one in Mom’s purse to have on the go, these brushes are just the right size to have one to carry without taking up too much space and they are good brushes. Strong and sturdy, they even go through Mom’s long, thick hair with no problems. Comes with a beautiful compact Mom loves! #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #LAFFINO #HairBrush https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075LNGRB2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It took me awhile to realize that probiotics are pretty important and essential supplements for my digestive health particularly when I am taking antibiotics. I just had a huge prescription for antibiotics and probiotics go exceptionally well when on antibiotics. I was told for years eating yogurt would be enough but it turns out that won’t do much of anything. So, now when I know I’m going to be needing antibiotics, I stock up on probiotics. These are a good deal that I only take when I am taking antibiotics but can be taken any time. They are especially important when having digestive issues. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #KeyNutrition #PROBIOTICWithDigestiveEnzymes SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N9U0MBR/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

This bath soak has both the Himalayan salt with its toxin clearing properties as well as spearmint and eucalyptus which is great to heal dry, cracked skin! These ingredients battle skin problems and diseases and with a tad additional eucalyptus oil, would be great treatment for a chest cold or upper respiratory infection. These soaks, soaps and salts make terrific gifts! #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #FreeShipping #NaturalSolutions #Natural Solution 8351JHimalayanPinkSaltSpearmintandEucalyptusBodySoak SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0775W2C5R/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

Now that I am finally in a position to get her one, I got my big sister this oral water pick like she has wanted for years. I did not get to test it out due to it being a gift but once she has and gives me feedback, I will come back and report how well it did and how much she likes it. I hope she does! I recommend she use warm water as opposed to cold as she does have sensitive teeth but I believe she’ll be quite happy with this. We will soon find out! #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Vikeepro #VikeeproWaterFlosserProfessionalRechargeableOralIrrigator https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0749MLF6C/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0?th=1

Not just for relief of hemorrhoids but also preventative by using as a cleanser when regular toilet paper isn’t enough, these wipes are comforting and cleansing. Great for daily use, if needed;  I like having them handy. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #NaticuraInc #CoolComfort HemorrhoidalMedicatedCleansingPads SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XCM5VKS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

With argon oil concentrate, vitamin E and coconut oil, this conditioner is so moisturizing and makes my hair feel thicker and so shiny without drying it out or making it oily.

As Mom as taught me, anything made with Himalayan salts is so healthy and these products have no artificial ingredients so I got this for my friend. This has added Vitamin E and other natural herbs so if it is anything like all the other products I’ve gotten from this company, it will be wonderful for my friend’s baby. All have been nourishing and moisturizing and very healthy. It also has oatmeal and antibacterial properties so it will be a soap Mommy will love to use on her new baby time and time again. So glad I found this!  #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #FreeShipping #HimalayanChef #WBMNaturalSolution9310Natural&HerbalBabyFace SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0775649S5/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

This hooded color-block top, purple and gray, is my favorite top over gray leggings. It is long with pockets and a hood and it flairs from the waist down for a flattering fit.

My sister has battled thin hair her entire life and it seemed like if there was something around to thin it more, she would contract it. I had heard good things about this shampoo so I decided to surprise her with it to see if it really did work and would help thicken her hair and it has. We can already see and feel a difference and see baby sprouts of hair growing as she continues to use this shampoo. She is so grateful for it, says it feels amazing and makes her hair shiny, fluffy and thicker. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #NourishBeaute #VitaminsHairLossSHAMPOO SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KU8FYN0/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0?th=1

The birds that stay in this region throughout the winter need help surviving and I like to do my part in feeding them I thought this a great idea as it adheres to the window pane via suction cups and we can watch as the birds eat. My nephew can learn all about what birds eat & how they eat as he sits and watches them go for the various seeds and pods to fuel their winter diets when worms aren’t so readily available. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #RedEarthNaturals #BESTWINDOWBIRDFEEDER SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E63LZO2/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

My friend has an iPhone X but no cover so I bought this for Christmas for him. It fits like a glove with double reinforcement that is also scratch proof. The cut outs for all the ports are exactly where they need to be. He isn’t one to make sure his phones have protection and after this expense, I felt this was the best gift I could give. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #XTEnsion #iPhoneXCase SOURCE:  https://www.facebook.com/mcneilgraphix1

Got this collapsible hamper for my bedroom since I am using teal and brown. Easy to assemble, it is canvas and washable as it comes apart easily. It is just the right size for my laundry only. Also, when it gets dirty from dirty laundry, it easily comes off the frame and can be laundered itself. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime  #M&U #M&ULaundryBasketwithLid SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076H6CH9B/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

This is a nourishing, cleansing mask that reduces pores and improves our complexions, fights blackheads (which I hate) all the while being healthy and restorative for each of our faces. Mom was worried at first as the first application for her left her skin a bit dry but further use didn’t do that and we can all tell the difference in pore size and blackheads disappearing. It is gentle and dries but does not peel; we use a warm washcloth to cleanse the mask away and then moisturize after each use. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Majestic Pure #MajesticPureActivatedCharcoalMudMask SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0753LHJ8X/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0?th=1

All these Himalayan Salt soaps have made me decide on use of them as opposed to commercial body washes since these only contain natural ingredients. This one, in addition to the Himalayan salts, contains green tea and olive so it has the added properties of toxin removal as well as anti-aging, wrinkle reduction and anti-inflammatories. It feels amazing on my skin and I don’t know if I can decide which of these I like best. They’re all equally nourishing and moisturizing, it seems.  #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #FreeShipping #HimalayanChef #WBMNaturalSolution8324HimalayanPinkSaltFaceandBodyBar SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076VJTF4X/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

I had just been looking at a similar camping grill but this one is so lightweight to be stainless, it is easy to transport, easy to use. It straddles a fire-pit to cook all your hot meals while out in the great outdoors and since my sister is now doing a lot of camping, I’m giving her this for her birthday. I thin she’ll thoroughly enjoy not eating cold rations but rather enjoying a warm, home-cooked meal after hours of rock-climbing & hiking. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Walmart #Odoland #OdolandOverFireCampGrillHeavyDutyStainlessSteel SOURCE:  https://www.walmart.com/ip/Odoland-Over-Fire-Camp-Grill-Heavy-Duty-Stainless-Steel-BBQ-Over-Open-Campfire-Grill-for-Outdoor/317639412

A front pocket wallet in my favorite color of real leather - I love a good leather wallet - has an ID card but is where I put my driver’s license comes with a money clip That reminds me of my dad and I will use.

Use on clean skin and massage into areas in need of help. My brother has a terrible scar just healing on his forehead and has been using this to fade the scar and Mom uses it at night before using night cream. They both like the effects of the serum and can really tell a difference.  #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Uptown #UptownCosmeceuticalsAcneScarRemoval&AntiWrinkleWonderSerum SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HLDESHO/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

Because of the strong odor of tea tree oil (of which I’m not a huge fan), I don’t like using this as an all-over body wash but it is great for any anti-fungal needs including eczema and foot fungus issues. I use it regularly and have seen a tremendous difference already. Tea tree oil does have many uses, though, and come spring, I bet this will be wonderful to treat the dogs for fleas!  #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #MajesticPure #MajesticPureAntifungalTeaTreeOilSoap SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LYLSSZ6/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

You don’t have to be a nurse or a doctor to get much use from a good pen light. Using it as a flashlight, it is ideal for us going to the car or the front door in the dark if we’ve neglected to leave the porch light on. These are good for seeing small things dropped in the dark as well as looking at small injuries such as a splinter. There are dozens of examples making these a good idea and being rechargeable rather than using batteries is also terrific. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Punada #PremiumPenLightsforNursesUSBRechargeableNursingPenlight  SOURCE:   https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076PCX5XB/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

This pet food mat makes clean up a breeze when the cats or the dogs spill their food or water, I’ve only to pick up the mat and dump it either into the trash or outside.  It is non-slip so the animals won’t be able to slosh their food or water around while on it.Great for keeping things a lot more tidy! #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Hoki #HokiFoundPetFoodMat SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073WP2291/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

Though Mom is not on near the quantity of medications she used to be, it still gets to be a hassle counting them out each morning and doling them out. This makes it so much easier plus allows her to know ahead of time when she’s going to be out of certain ones. She does this only once weekly and all is well for another week till it is time to refill. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Terasako #WeeklyPillOrganizer SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073WQ38DW/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0?th=1

This bath soak has both the Himalayan salt with its toxin clearing properties as well as honey and milk to help relax and soothe tired, sore muscles and it feels amazing. Both the soak and my loofah help to exfoliate my skin leaving it feeling clean, refreshed and completely relaxed. This stuff is amazingly wonderful and a great deal!

My son has picked up yoga as well as I but I can’t really do the exercises best used with this block. My son does some neat strengthening and balancing exercises that require a lot of strength and agility. This block comes with a strap that can wrap it along with a yoga mat for carrying but my brother has devised some exercises to do using the strap, as well. The photos show some of the various poses my brother does using this nicely made yoga block. It is sturdy and heavy, thick cork that is dense and strong. It comes with a large canvas bag for carrying all the supplies either of them need to go to other locations to do their workout routines. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #ULTY #CorkYogaBlockwith6’Strap SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072VJFQ6X/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

This bar of soap with Himalayan Salts with Shea Butter leaves my skin so moist and healthy feeling, I need less lotion after bathing than when I use other commercial products. I don’t ordinarily even use bar soap but more often use bath/shower wash but this is something totally different than any I’d tried. So soothing and the shea butter makes it good for control of wrinkles, it is probably the most moisturizing soap I’ve ever used,  #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #FreeShipping #HimalayanChef #WBMNaturalSolution8325 SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076VTSZG1/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have one of these already but seems we have so many devices, we needed another to keep our devices charged or able to charge. Every night I put one eReader on to charge as well as my phone and always have both charged. I alternate between eReaders so I’m able to take one with me when playing taxi for everyone to get everywhere they need to be. I gave this four stars because the other I bought came with charging cords, both C Type and Android and two lightening fast cords. This came with no cords, only the station and the cords with which to plug it to an A/C outlet. Still, I have plenty of charging cords and get a tremendous amount of use out of this. I had to have another - this was a good deal. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #UNITEK #AdjustableDividersChargingStation SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072XCHZ9C/ref=od_aui_detailpages01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Jumping rope is not only fun but great cardio exercise and I’d forgotten how useful it could be when added to my exercise routine. I found out quickly how out of shape I truly am when I first began to jump rope. It is hard on my entire body and has taken awhile to build up to be able to continually jump for several minutes. At first, the best I could do was seconds. It is getting  to be more fun! #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #DiBoBo #DiBoBoPremiumQualityJumpRope SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072Q9VX6N/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1

I broke down and ordered another set for my niece and nephew when I saw how much fun they had with the set I’d already gotten my oldest nephew. This will help involve them all when they’re here and give them something to be up doing playing hide-n-seek and improving their language skills. The older one simply thinks these are hilarious and mimics trucker lingo into his. 22-Channel, all can be set on the same channel so all three kids can play together. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Swiftion #SwiftionRechargeableKidsWalkieTalkies22Channel SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSSU87M/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

With this magnetic calendar and markers (it comes with three colors), I can write down and color code my appointments throughout a particular month. If it is something that falls into the next month, I simply write it in the margin below the pre-printed calendar. The calendar is blank and each month I wipe it clean and change the month and the days. I use green for one type appt., pink for another and orange to fill in the month and dates. This has helped us so much keep track of appts. and be organized not to forget important chores that need to be completed at a certain time. This is such a handy item. I recommend one for any household or office. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #Cedar Markers #BlackMagneticFridgeCalendar SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0725B62BB/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1

Wooden handled, shed-free makeup brushes in a pretty case are nice These include all the necessities such as a thick powder brush and all the amenities a good brush set needs. Being shed-free is very important to me as many shed. So far, these do not.

I cannot just sit still even in front of the TV so I got this 3D puzzle to put together. It is die cut from a thin wood and the pieces pop out and fit together using rubber bands and toothpicks (some accompany the project but you will need additional toothpicks and rubberbands) and in the end, I have a working, moving puzzle that holds business cards. These are tedious so they aren’t for smaller children but it was a lot of fun to sit down and construct (it can be made two ways - one is a business card holder and the other holds paper clips). The wheels turn manually to tilt the tray up, raise the lid and offer a card or paper clip or whatever you choose to store in the box. #McNeilGraphix #PurchasesMadeSimple #Amazon #AmazonPrime #UGEARS #UgearsMechanicalEtui3DPuzzle SOURCE:  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075VFLSJR/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1

Includes a total of 47 pcs. some of which admittedly, I don’t even know what they’re used to do. There is a bicycle mount, a headset, a chest strap and so much more...too numerous to mention here. Read the listing to see what all is included. It is a most complete, comprehensive kit that will answer all your GoPro needs and is Universal so it fits all types of Action Cameras similar to the GoPro.

Though Mom is the true artist in the household, I like to doodle and have a few drawings I am quite proud of. My younger sister likes the adult coloring books and will spend hours on them so we all are enjoying these markers. They are very nice and well made.

These are the best bearings for my nephew’s skateboard as they don’t allow the board to go to fast but allow handling of the board and since he isn’t the best yet at skating, he needs something with control.

There are so many tools I need in order to complete the house I bought that is largely unfinished and this is one I had on my wish list. It is ideal for cutting perfectly sized holes in tile for running pipes, setting up a shower & tub, toilet, and more. Run under water to lessen the likelihood of the tile breaking, these drill bits have the ideal sizes for most anything I’m going to be needing to get the house finished considering I have at least 3 bathrooms to install and an update to do on the kitchen in the main house.
