Oppsy Doopsy!

I have neglected my blog as of late! Sorry! I am going to get back on track one of these days! I have been spending tons of time shopping for a van (we bought a white 2002 Chevy Venture) I love it! It is wonderful!

I have also been getting bids for windows. Which has taken about 12 hours of my day during the last two weeks! That is just in bids, mind you, not counting all of the time Riky and I compared companies. We finally decided on a window company. We should have all new windows and doors by the end of April.

Wrestling has been in full swing, too. We have been going to tournaments regularly and will continue to for a few more weeks before we get a weekend off. The boys are doing well, and Riky is happy with their progress.

I hope to be getting on track sometime soon, now!

I have also become enrolled in a leading wellness company. I am so excited about it. I have gone GREEN. All of my cleaning and household products are all natural and safe for the boys, us, and the dogs. I stopped using my Swiffer Wet Jet quite a while ago after I found out about the possible neurological effects that it could have on my little dogs, not to mention of we were to ever have a baby crawling around here again. I am so excited to now be able to mop again with something other than water and elbow grease. The products are not as expensive as you would think they might be either. They are comparable to name brand prices, and most of the time less expensive, because they are concentrated, so you don't have to buy them as often. Which saves me time shopping :) Although I don't mind shopping as much as some of my friends (Debie and Sherri) I hate it when I need window cleaner and end up making it home without it. I know that you can use white vinegar to do your windows, but when I am done cleaning, I want it to smell clean, not like I spilled a bottle of vinegar.This company's glass cleaner uses vinegar as one of it's active ingredients, but it also has other natural ingredients that make it smell fabulous! Buying these products actually saves me lots of shopping time, since the products are sent right to my door. Plus, my UPS guy is really nice, so unlike some of the cashiers at WalMart. (notice I didn't say all. There are some cashiers that I just love, but a grumpy one is no fun for either of us!)

This company has much more than just cleaning products, the boys love their children's toothpaste. I love that it is clear. Clear, as in no unsightly spit marks streaked down the inside of the downstairs sink. Love It! Don't misunderstand me here, there are probably still streaks of toothpaste down there, but I can't see them and neither did the people that were in that bathroom measuring the windows over the last week. I would have been sending up "prayer flares" for God to guard their eyes, but I didn't have to! I repeat, Love It!
I have head that their lotion is spectacular, and I will be trying use it on Jeffrey's eczema for the next week (if I remember) I will tell you what I think of it at that point!

As I learn more and use more products, I will document it on my blog. Hopefully more regularly, but I make no promises.
If you are interested in learning more about these products, right now you can enroll in the company as a preferred customer or even a distributor for only $1 (you have no idea how long it took me to find that dollar sign. Why in the world is it above the 4 of all things?!)
I know that I pay $50 annually for my Costco membership, and they have never delivered directly to me when I ran out of anything!
You can also contact me if you want to learn more. I don't know much yet, but my friend Amy is well versed, as is Sherri. Amy has done some fabulous posts lately about what is in some of the cleansers you may currently be using. You can find them here, and here.

You are so funny! I love the Costco point! That's exactly right. I'm going to have to call Carrie and tell her that. She loves costco.

Nor does Costco pay you for shopping there, nor does any other store for that matter!!
