Homemaking tips:::
I just made my own laundry detergent.  I found out how from Why Not Sew - How To Make Homemade Laundry Detergent


Looking around my house:::

Shawn is in the shower upstairs and I can hear the water running. The big kids are laying down, supposed to be sleeping.  Rylie is asleep right next to me and I'm enjoying a nice cold beverage and about to pick up my book.

On my prayer list:::
My family and I.  There is so much hurt going around right now...
