So Far Today

Don't ask me what I was thinking when I thought I wanted to move back to Nauvoo. Temporary insanity.  Good God, that would have been a tragic mistake.  Recent events may have just sealed the deal for me.  In fact, I want to get even further away.  I'm so sick of being around people that are fake and insincere.  I'm sick of my kids having to put up with crap.  I'm sick of Jeremy and I having to put up with crap.  Ugh.  Done.

In other news, the laundry detergent that I made in January has finally run out!  I got 7 months out of it....doing laundry at the pace I do which is about 4-5 loads a day.  Freaking sweet.  I order the supplies and am making it again tomorrow when my stuff gets here.  It cost me $20 the first time I made it plus $10 for the big fat jar to store it in.  I would say that is pretty good to spend about $50 per year rather than the hundreds I used to spend.  And I think it works better than the name brand detergent I used to use as well.  You can see my original post complete with recipe here.

Also, yesterday, I got to take Tristan, just me and him, to go get school supplies.  It was a good time.  I let him pick whatever he wanted out which is rarely the case.  I don't believe that kids need something bought for them every time they step foot in a store.  But, he was excited about getting new stuff and being "organized" this school year! lol!  Love it!
