Greetings!

I’ve been working on a new schedule for the upcoming school year and I think it will work.  As you can tell I’m trying to get my exercise in and the best time for me to do it is before the kids wake up.  Feel free to share your schedule!

After writing the post about vinegar and its many uses especially for cleaning I thought to myself I would use vinegar for certain things but I really love scented cleaners.  So I surfed the net the earth friendly, natural cleaners and came across this cleaning pack that is REASONABLY PRICED at Walmart.  The cleaning Pack is only $18.88 and has the following:

• Dishmate Almond Hand Dish Soap
• Toilet Kleener
• Orange Plus Ready-to-Use All Purpose Cleaner
• Stain & Odor Remover
• Creamy Cleanser
• Window Kleener

The cleaning pack is also:

If anyone has purchased environmentally friendly  products or organic products you know that this is a steal:)  Plus you can purchase it online…how great is that!

It’s easy to see why vinegar has been around for thousands of years—it has 1001 uses! From cooking and cleaning with vinegar, to gardening and home remedies, white distilled vinegar is one of the most versatile—and economical—products you can have on hand.

As many of you know I am trying to learn how to live life more wholistically, naturally, etc:) So I’m always looking for information on  how to clean, cook, (pretty much live) more naturally.  I’ve heard so many things about vinegar but I’ve only used vinegar for a few things such as cleaning meat and use it (with a little water) to clean glass. BTW it does a good job for both uses:)  So me being Sister Resource as many of my friends call me I wanted to look up more information on how to use this cheap product around my house correctly since it is:  All Natural • Environmentally Friendly • Non-toxic • Economical

To my surprise there are so many uses.  A gallon of vinegar for $2 can safely clean the house without harming children and pets because its not toxic.  Click on the Vinegar link under the Going Green on my sidebar to see the 1001 uses of vinegar.

See guys its not hard going “Green.” 

Below is a copy of my daily schedule.  I try to follow this as much as I can to establish routine with my children and myself but as we all know life brings changes so I oftentimes “tweak” it to suit my household.  As for today, I’m not feeling very well so I won’t be doing a lot of this but its okay:)  Lord’s willing it will be done tomorrow:) Have a Blessed Day!
