So busy...

I have been so busy lately.. I have actually been stuff done...I have made laundry soap, fabric softener, 2 different dishwasher soap (the 1st one I didn't like), made several bags for people, working a quilt for a baby shower, running errands, kung fu, bible study and so much more...

Look what I made... Way simple..

I actually made Homemade Laundry Soap today.. I have been wanting to do it for awhile but just ran out of my stock of laundry soap... I thought it was going to be a pain and not really worth it... I have already done 3 loads and I am really liking the results... My husband is a industrial mechanic and his socks actually look great.. Being that it is working so well I decided to share it with yall... FYI! It was very very very easy to make and very quick.. It is was very cheap tomake and will last about 6 months... You only use 1tbsp per wash, unless you have a really bad load or a really full load... This went over so well I have decided that I will be making fabric softener, dishwasher liquid and hand soap tomorrow or this weekend.. There are lost of recipes on the net but here is the recipe I used.. http://beingcreativetokeepmysanity.blogspot.com/2010/11/homemade-laundry-soap.html

Bailey and I ate at the SushiPop today.. We have been eying it for sometime.. We tried a few things from the different categories.. We got a "spider" roll, and a big Texas roll for our sushi portion (both from 2 different parts of the menu). We tried the Miso soup, and steamed rice...The food was very good, prices were high in some places not high on other things.. You get a free frozen yogurt cone.. We both enjoyed it!

Trip to a safari....

Okay maybe it is just Uncle Bill's and Aunt Georgia's....
It was so fun, riding around listening to Uncle Bill talk about the animals, their habits and personalities.. He did tell me that they have no pets.. Yet he talks about them like he likes them.. He shared the parts of the property that he mows, the ones he sees bobcats in and so much more.. It was very much a fun day..

Playing with Elements Again...

This is my version of a yellow day lily.... Sometimes I feel my life going this way, and I thought I needed a picture to represent my mind... It may be hard for you to understand but it makes me happy.. It makes me think that I am not the only one in the world who's world is chaotic and busy... My life is in focus but sometimes I feel I am not mentally focused...
