A brand new day!

 Good morning world!  Already been busy this morning.  I rarely to never go to bed with dishes in the sink.  I did last night.  I wasn't feeling all that great last night.  I normally would ask a son to wash dishes.  But last night, I didn't.  So I woke up to an extra mess to clean up.  UGH!  


This is not my sink, but you get the idea!  And mine was worse than this.

On the first of this year, I decided to detox my home.  Over the past few years, even earlier, when I was writing this blog, I was making my own personal care items, making meals from scratch instead of boxes, gardening and canning, along with other healthier choices.  However, I was still using some plastic storage containers.  Under my sick was a toxic wasteland.  

I have since cleaned out under the kitchen sink.  Got rid of most of the plastic.  Still using a plastic pitcher for sweet tea. Either a gallon jar or 2 half-gallon mason jars. I still have to think about this.

Also, I made my first tincture of mulleins.  It helped us through some flu A that was going through my house.  My yard and field are a smorgasbord of medicinal plants.  As soon as I can, I'll be harvesting and preserving as much as I can.

I have strayed somewhat from the old-fashioned lifestyle that I still crave.  However, I'm going to work on returning to it.  

The other thing I am returning to is going back to my routines.  Some I use are from Flylady.  Some from what was done in the '50s.  

Just a few of my thoughts and actions.
