Homemaking tips:::
Once again, it's another vinegar post.  I just love vinegar and baking soda for cleaning.  I have a dishwasher that I use at least once a day and I worry about chemicals.  I just learned that you can use white vinegar as a replacement for Jet Dry.

Looking around my house:::
My husband is sitting in the chair next to me, reading his book on his phone.  The kids are playing with his suit case probably trying to figure out how to fit inside to go with him.  Rylie is fussing for attention next to me and you can hear the dryer running.


From the camera:::





On my prayer list:::
I'm praying for my husband who leaves again today and to everyone else who's significant other can't be there.

Love your homemaking tip. I'm going to have to try that. Vinegar is way cheaper than jet dry

Exactly! Jet Dry is expensive, and from what I hear, very toxic.

I love reading your posts - I think you are a WRITER!!! You need to write a book or sell ads to a blog page???

I've been watching a ton of Frasier lately! What a great show. I love the brother's mutual dry humor :)

Blogmas 2014 - Day 8 What Is On Your Wish List This Year

Oh my goodness, I'm really pretty easy to buy for.  I have pretty much everything a girl could want.  I mean of course I have a few things but I'm not really counting on anything because I already got a huge gift of the new car. I really love scarves, especially infinity scarves right now.  I'm beyond obsessed.   Fun gadgets, appliances, etc for my kitchen are always a win for me as well as cookbooks and decorations.  I'm so into all of it, and it's the best go to gift idea for me. A nice pair of rain boots or wellies.  I just bought some for all of my kids for Christmas, and I've been dying for my own for years. Vera Bradley!  I'm so in love with Vera Bradley.  I'd like a bigger purse, as well as a library tote bag. And honestly I've not asked for any of even these things because what I want more than anything else in the world, is our own house.  I want to buy a house for my kids to grow up in an...

Petty

By
This evening our sweet little Petty went to Kitty Heaven.  The cancer had spread to her brain, causing her to have odd behaviors.  The tumor in her mouth, or the side of her face, had pulled down her ear canal on that side and caused her eye to twitch, which the vet said caused constant vertigo.  The cancer had also spread to her intestines causing her to loose control of her bowels and bladder and she was bleeding internally.  While she didn't appear to be suffering, there is no way that she wasn't.  We sadly had to have her put down. Yes, I'm meowing at her in the video.  Sometimes she would answer when you would do that, but she would always come to you. She was such a cute little love bug.  I named her Perpetua, from the Bridget Jones movies, and later we shortened it to Petty, just because we are a family of nicknames.  I remember when we first got her and she was so tiny.  She looked like a lemur and she was all black with a cou...
