Also, I have AMD and get regular injections into my left eye every two months. This always leaves my eye 'bruised' and sore after the shot. Normally, it takes about 3-4 days for the soreness to dissipate but by applying a comfrey poultice on my eye, the soreness is gone overnight.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02459761622172140164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3924980460877155439.post-61933020322701246462020-05-06T07:52:55.027-07:002020-05-06T07:52:55.027-07:00Its good to stay away from plastic, but if you use...Its good to stay away from plastic, but if you use the sturdier cups, you can reuse them again and again year after year.

I put a velcro strip on one side to open for watering. I will never again use peat pots for starting seeds as they dry out and the plants wilt. I think using plastic cups is much better and they don't leak.

We've finally moved, and actually ended up in a huge house, because that's what we were able to find, where they'd take us, and it fit what we were looking for. It's a great house, with four bedrooms (six if you count the two non-traditional ones) two levels, and 4000 square feet--though it doesn't feel quite that big. I have to admit I love it, especially since the house doesn't look as bad when the kids strew toys everywhere. We're spending over $500 a more on rent though. Eeek. But I still think that we shouldn't be forced to live in a huge house if we don't want to. It isn't fair to discriminate against big families. People should be judged on WHO they are, not how many children they have.Simply Natural Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16785383735850689205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3924980460877155439.post-89300591999538197312011-04-17T22:31:57.788-07:002011-04-17T22:31:57.788-07:00Excellent, just excellent, enjoyed so muchExcellent, just excellent, enjoyed so muchMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10570739984945318784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3924980460877155439.post-76540114393385828132011-04-07T19:19:56.165-07:002011-04-07T19:19:56.165-07:00This is wonderful!

I enjoyed reading/watching all that your above links had to offer. I watched ALL 9 of Wendy Dewitt's - really excited about doing some of the things she talked about. Looks like she has the same foodsaver that's at my goodwill. Looks like she doesn't use the bag part AT ALL. Wonder if I should get it just for the vac part???

It is crazy. My sister is a PhD in Psych. She is totally against medicating kids. Are kids suppost to be zombies??? <br /><br />My daughter is active and happy. She eats good food, gets plenty of exercise, and gets a good night sleep.<br /><br />I have a thyroid dysfunction that one of the doctors that I use to see wanted to put me on "depression meds" for. I knew that my thyroid dose was not right. So I went to an Endocrinologist. Got me on the right dose and I have been good ever since. As long as I take my thyroid pill every morning on an empty stomach and take my multi every night. Doctors love to get you on depression meds.

But when I come across something like this, I think it's important to spread the word.

If you drink soda, you have a choice between aspartame-laced diet or regular, which is filled with high-fructose corn syrup...that stuff is just as scary! Not much of a choice. I gained about 60 pounds on soda, I won't touch that stuff any more! From now on, I'm trying to live by this rule: "If God didn't make it, I'm not eating it."
