I pee standing up!

i-peestandingup.com DO YOU?

TRUE STORY: When I was 16, I was squatting to pee in the woods and I fell down. Guess what I landed in…yup – poison ivy. Guess where I got it – yup… the worst imaginable spot and the worst imaginable case of poison ivy. It made a vaginal yeast infection seem like a walk in the park!

You can imagine how delighted I was to find this little device that ensures I WILL NEVER HAVE TO DISROBE AND SQUAT TO PEE EVER AGAIN!!!!

Now you might think this is only convenient for urinating outside, and while it is TERRIFIC for that – either with a skirt or pants (stay tuned for a photo of me using it with pants) it has lots of other uses too:

  • dirty gas station bathrooms
  • airplane bathrooms
  • porta-potties at concerts, festivals, street fairs, sports events, etc.
  • hiking and other outdoor sports, of course
  • marathon running and skiing!
  • traveling to other countries with sub-standard bathrooms
  • your “back to nature” friends who don’t have indoor plumbing
  • can’t find a bathroom? guys can pee behind a bush, now you can too!
Female urinating device lasts forever!

My Honey, Justin, and I live on a farm in rural West Virginia (solar, organic, isolated) and we use composting toilets. We have found that if you DON’T pee in the composting “bucket” and cover your poop thoroughly with sawdust, there is no smell.

Justin installed a funnel type urinal for him to use, but it just didn’t work for my anatomy.

So began my search to find a way to pee that was easier than a female bedpan thing or plastic container, without going outside!

Now I pee, standing up, with my GoGirl female urination device,  right into his funnel. He thought I was the best before, but this really cinches the deal!!

Impress your boyfriend! Tickle your husband’s fancy! Pave the way for your daughters!!

Made from medical grade, soft silicone, the GoGirl lasts forever
and squishes up small to fit in your

  • pocket
  • purse
  • backpack
  • glove compartment
  • boyfriend’s pocket if you’re wearing a dress!

My boyfriend loves it! He thinks I’m so cool and cutting edge (well, he thought I was anyway)!! After use, I rinse it, dry it and put it back in the bag – I am giving away a free little drawstring cloth carry bag with every purchase of a Go-Girl.

i-Pee in a bag, free with your order!

Cloth bag FREE with order of GoGirl female urinating device!

If it’s not dried all the way, it can dry out through the bag. When there is no water available from a sink or a water bottle, I simply dry it with a tissue and rinse it when I can later. You can also wash it in the dishwasher!

This is the next best thing to sliced bread! It would make a good stocking stuffer, bachelorette party gift, mother’s day gift and of course birthday gift! Everyone I’ve given them to LOVED the idea of peeing standing up! Hey, get one and send me your photos – I’ll post them!! You go girl!!

Instructions are included, and it’s easy to learn to use it. You press it against your body and it makes a rather good seal. It takes practice a few times, but then you’re a pro and pee anywhere, anytime – standing up!!!

You may already have an iPod and an iPhone, now all you need to say is I pee with a Go-Girl!! Get a discount on THREE Go-Girls!

Natural Products Show – Expo West was inspiring!

Thursday, March 19th, 2009
We recently returned from Expo West in Anaheim, CA with 1,900 exhibitors and over 53,000 attendees! I used to exhibit water at this show, and let me tell you, it’s very exciting! All the latest and cutting edge products are there and often the manufacturer or originator is on hand to speak with. Aside from having a great time reconnecting with old friends, meeting newer friends face-to-face for the first time, we also made some new friends!

An old friend of mine, and maybe yours if I introduced you in the past, is Smooth Move Tea! This laxative tea is in my traveling bag of tricks just in case I get a bit slowed down, which sometimes happens when traveling – rarely, but it does happen. So I just make a cup of this tea in the evening, and next morning, voila!
I really do keep a few Smooth Move tea bags in my toiletries bag for me and anyone else I might be traveling with. Here’s a photo of me with the Smooth Move movin’ outhouse!! Justin wants to make a few of these vehicles for use around the farm, like porta-potties!

Patricia Bragg & Tina
We also met Patricia Bragg from Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar and Aminos. She was so gracious and gave us several signed books. Since Justin and I met at Expo West, somehow this came out with several more quick details. Patricia loved our “love story” and wants to perhaps feature us in a new book she’s writing!! She’d also like to visit us on the farm! I’ll keep you posted!!
Another interesting lady we met was 79 year old Japanese Linda who has an organic farm growing Ashitaba, an unusual and potent Japanese herb. Her’s seems to be extremely high quality, and this herb is used throughout Japan. It is a very powerful antioxidant, twice that of green tea. It provides energy without caffeine and is sold in juice bars at major Japanese subway stations 24/7. It also relieves pain, aids in weightloss, increases mental clarity, and is cited in many testimonials for “helping” cancer (we have to be careful about what we say because of the FDA). I just got some in stock if you are interested. I have capsules, powder and a tincture that can be applied to skin eruptions. Watch for more information soon!

Tina & Bill
I reconnected with my old friends, Bill from Yi-Shan ionizer manufacturing company, and my Watershed pals too, Bob McCauley, Patti & Ryan. We will soon be offering a radical new ionizer, that departs from standard electrode plates and uses an ionizing disk in much less space! Stay tuned for this development!
Margaritas
And of course, Justin and I marked our “sacred ground” – our meeting place in the 2900 aisle of Expo West with appropriate kisses and gratitude to the powers that be who brought us together! We celebrated his birthday in Mexican style with huge Mango Margaritas!
Justin won a plush panda!

Ohbeeb from NYC
We saw our friend Ohbeeb from NYC, who knew us both independantly before we were together! She sells the greatest raw chocolate-spirulina bars, Wild Bar!
