Gobble, Gobble!

I know that I am a day early but wanted to be sure to wish you all a very Happy & Safe Thanksgiving

Holiday! Enjoy your time with your families....Be safe is you are heading out for all of the Black Friday deals.

It's Been Awhile.....

Hi friends!  It has been awhile since I've posted here.  That crazy little thing called "LIFE" was getting to be a bit more than I could handle so I decided to take a break.  I'll get to some explanations in another post. Hope you all have been well.

A few months back a friend of mine posted a DIY Laundry Detergent recipe that she found and decided to try.  Her reviews were so great that I figured, what the heck, I would try it too. (Again, I am not claiming this as my own creation......I have seen this recipe posted on Pinterest as well.)  I made a comment about this DIY on Twitter the other day and some of you have asked for the recipe so here is my experience.

I was always surprised, and disappointed, by the costs of laundry detergents at the store so I purchased the items and followed instructions and began to tackle the laundry monster that had taken over. What happen you asked?  Excitement and wonder!! Clean, soft, great smelling clothes!  So happy with the outcome we continued to use it until we ran out.  Oh, and here is the best part.....The detergent last us 3 months!

Here is your list of items that you will need with the directions to follow.

For the added benefit of why you might want to try this for yourself I have listed how much the cost for the supplies from Walmart.

1 Bar of Fels-Naptha   .97 cents
1 Box Borax             $3.38
1 Box Washing Soda $3.24

Total $                   $7.59














OK, I feel like I have shared something wonderful with you all......now go........go create!
Until next time :)

George of the Jungle......Watch out for that tree!

Earlier this week there was a bit more chaos that I am used to. Little Man in Training was at his science camp getting all smart and had a run in with a tree.  Yep, you read that right, he ran into a tree! (See, it's on paper!) 

Apparently, the red light green light game is not one you want to lose.  This picture really doesn't show just how bad the bump of the head was. His hands, arms and legs were scraped up as well.  I tried not to panic and got him in to see his doctor.

Little Man In Training, Man In Charge, & I sat in the exam room waiting for the doctor. While chatting and looking around I happen to glance up and see this...............................>>>>

WHAT?!? Couldn't help but laugh and take a picture of course!  

After the exams and x-rays were completed, we hear that there is no permanent damage done. Thank goodness! After being emotionally jacked up for the past 2 days from this event I feel like I am back on track. So that means, I have some daily pictures to share with you!

Here is my Day 14 - Time.  This was my Grandpas watch.

Day 15 - Yellow.  These are the heels of my new Steve Madden shoes...Love them!

There it is......another week of pictures.  I have a super busy weekend starting up so I will see y'all back her Monday!
Happy Days :)

So, I didn't exactly follow the assignment on the Day 12 photo as you see below.  I reversed it - Just because I love this photo of little man.

Day 12 - From a low angle

Day 13 - Art - Little man made this picture in school this year.  Not bad for a 6 year old!

I received a message from my "Anonymous" viewer that I am lagging behind on posting my daily pictures.  Thank you "Anonymous" for keeping me on track here ;)  I do take my pictures each day but might not post them right away.  I usually take a break from posting on the weekends for family duties. But, today is Monday so here we go.......
