Lil bump

In the road again.  I had surgery on Friday.  Trying to take it easy and relax.  The kids are back in school so it's quiet and restful during the day.  Gotta get well quickly, I've got cleaning products to try out, the Orange one I made.  I've got dish soap cubes to make, and a garden that is screaming for attention. 
I apologize for any typos. Meds and blogging might not always be a good combo, plus posting from my phone who has an auto correct with its own mind!!

They say

Time flies, I never believed it, but yet again they were right...whoever 'they' are!
The kids started back to school today, off they went a 7th and 8th grader, both a lil nervous.  You see, they both had to start a new school today.  The middle school they were supposed to go to closed down, and the high school has become a jr/sr high school.  Interesting to say the least.  I cannot wait to hear how their first day was.  Annndddd, believe it or not, I really do miss them.   I spent a lot of time with them this summer doing the family thing when we could, and at work, yes I was lucky enough to be able to bring them with me.  Some days I was lucky enough to leave them elsewhere!  Funny how that works.  But I do miss them, they make me laugh, and smile, and grit my teeth while threatening them!
But, time flies, and I will be home soon ready to greet them and hear all about their day!

Health kick

So with my recent health issues, I am in the middle of a lifestyle change.  Healthier eating/cooking for my kids and me.
I've seen tons of pins on pinterest and recipes in mags for Kale chips.  After some olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic and a warm toasty oven along with a 25 minute wait.....they were pretty good.  Next time I might pull them out after 20 sweeps of the minute hand.  My son who typically runs from green things actually liked them!  I about fainted!!
Can't wait to see what other goodies we can try.

Going green

Errr, orange is what I meant.  I've been making my own cleaners, laundry detergent, dish soap etc.
I've decided to kick up my cleaner a notch and make the orange peel cleaner that I've been reading about on Facebook and pintrest.  I've got it made and now it's curing/steeping in the pantry.  I will keep you updated .
