After a long weekend I do not want to go back to work.
I realize now why jobs don’t give you much time off - they fear you won’t come back.

I long for the days I can just tend to my animals and gardens and that be my work.

So much more fulfilling then the typical 9-5 grind.

I've been on a roll lately with trying to rid the house of toxic chemicals.
I worked hard at this about five or so years ago and changed many things, but as life slowly got more complicated, I got away from it, as life likes to do.
It's time to get back to being healthier and cleaner in what we put in and on our bodies.
I'm sharing a "recipe" for homemade laundry detergent. It's so simple, with only a few ingredients you probably already have around the house. Plus, it costs tons less to make and use. Winning!

I cleaned the filter in our dishwasher the other day, which was absolutely disgusting.

There was a plastic buildup along with colored beads stuck in the filter from using dishwasher pods.

All it took was a simple search on all-natural dishwashing detergents, and lo and behold, I found out that I could use washing soda instead!
I was dumbfounded.

I'm using this “recipe” instead of commercial dishwashing detergent.

Happy Independence Day!

We explored the old bridge at Glendale. Super cool place. I thought it was just an old bridge to walk on.
We were definitely wrong. So many cool things to look at and the water was amazing.

Can anyone identify this spider?

I have my thoughts about it which doesn’t make sense for our area but its my only conclusion right now.

Size is about a silver dollar.

Anyone?
