Eco Reusable Dryer Sheet

In 1 on April 16, 2010 at 1:20 am

I love dryer sheets – I do. But they are a wasteful expense, too – I hate anything that is in essence “throw away after one use.” So here came the perfect substitute. A pair of reusable dryer sheets for under $15 – eco-friendly, hypoallergenic and withstands hundreds of uses. This site (NaturalAllergy.com) also has a huge selection of cleaning supplies, bedding, personal care items and more for those who are sensitive to certain ingredients/scents/fibers. Having recently learned my daughter’s weird elbow/knee rash is caused by my natural (but scented) laundry detergent, softener and dryer sheets….I may be looking into more of these hypoallergenic items.

I have neglected my personal blog in favor of updating our new family blog.

Broken wrists and baby drool…

In 1 on May 1, 2009 at 2:38 am

So 2 weeks ago, I went to turn on a ceiling fan, lost my balance, tumbled on a box and landed on 1 right wrist on the other side. The harrowing results: a broken wrist that couldn’t be set in the ER due to pregnancy, a surgery under general anesthesia a week later after great pains for 6 and 3/4 days prior, and a multi-thousand dollar bill. Also in the aftermath, a mother living with us to deal with a child who has newly evolved into a race-crawler that gets into everything. Even things about 4 feet above her head.

Yeah, life has been interesting these past few weeks! Add to it that I can’t work for 2 months, so our bare bones budget has become bare without any bones. I feel like Mother Hubbard, only – hopefully – not as old. haha

But it’s still fun times with the family. 🙂 Things could always be worse. I could be 8 months pregnant, having heartburn, have three 9 month old children and have all of this occur. HAH!
