A Must Watch Video

Posted on February 28, 2022

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4oSpJOwFTI   I am a big fan of reality TV. One of the shows I enjoy watching with my family is American Idol. Season 20 just began last night, and I watched this singer at the end of the show. He not only left me speechless but left me in ( more… )

Dinosaur Video

Posted on June 24, 2021June 24, 2021

Today is a rainy day, so that means it is a GoNoodle type of day! I always try to find some type of active play to do indoors when the weather does not allow us to go outside. The kiddos love interacting with the videos on GoNoodle. I find them ( more… )

Day 170- A Good Read

Posted on July 12, 2020July 12, 2020

I read a great book about becoming more eco-friendly, and if you have an interest in being more eco-friendly, I think it would be a good read for you too! 101 Ways to Go Zero Waste is a book by Kathryn Kellogg. It gives great tips for not wasting anything ( more… )

Day 169- Glass swaps

Posted on July 12, 2020July 12, 2020

A great swap I have found is switching out plastic bottles for glass. I have found glass spray bottles and also glass pump bottles that I use now instead of the plastic versions. I keep a glass soap pump at each sink in the house. I just refill them when ( more… )

Day 168- Inmates

Posted on July 12, 2020July 12, 2020

Have you seen the movie “When They See Us?” This movie was my first introduction to wrongly accused inmates. Being a childcare provider and hearing all the terrible child abuse stories like the recent one in KC, I don’t have the strongest faith in the welfare/justice system. They do not ( more… )

Day 167- Shampoo and Conditioner

Posted on July 11, 2020July 11, 2020

One of the first swaps I made was from bottles of shampoo and conditioner to bars of shampoo and conditioner. I was always wanting a strong scented shampoo and conditioner as I loved that aromatic experience in the shower. However, fragrance is not the healthiest for our body. Fragrances can ( more… )

Day 166- Ladies only

Posted on July 11, 2020July 11, 2020

There are many options when it comes to handling your menstrual flow. One is the menstrual cup pictured above. I have never tried one of these before and although the reviews say it is easy to use, I am still apprehensive about using one. If you have any feedback on ( more… )

Day 165- Bidets

Posted on July 11, 2020July 11, 2020

Owning a bidet is not something I plan on doing, but it is something I would consider if I move to another house. There is no room in any of my bathrooms for a separate bidet. However, I have seen some bidet attachments that might work to add-on to the ( more… )

Day 164- Old toothbrushes

Posted on July 11, 2020July 11, 2020

What do you do with your old toothbrushes? Old toothbrushes make great cleaning tools! Here are some things you can clean with your old toothbrushes- make sure to label them in some way so you know they are for cleaning only! I keep one toothbrush in my shower to use ( more… )

Day 160- Bottle caps

Posted on July 11, 2020July 11, 2020

Recycle your bottle caps. I do not drink out of glass bottles regularly, but since I am trying to become plastic-free in 2020, I will most likely start doing it more. I read a great way to recycle bottle tops in a book I read called 101 Ways to Go ( more… )
