Posted by Susan on

I am still figuring out how to make better videos but you can still watch how to make these fun tassels. It’s a great project to make with kiddos too!

What do you do when you get into a conversation th

What do you do when you get into a conversation that did not go the way you thought it would, or read something in the news that upset you or stressed you out? What do you do when things are not going your way but are beyond your control? It seems like that is happening a lot lately for all of us.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you have an activity that will help you calm yourself? Is it something you can count on to work on a regular basis? We all need that. It will help to keep you healthier! I have a few: sewing, knitting, crochet, cooking, and now spending time in my garden.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I hope you have found your meditation/calming activity. I would love to hear some other ideas. You might be helping someone else!

My boys showed me a ton of love this weekend by getting our garden ready to plant. We had a broken garage door waiting for the dump when we decided the sections would be perfect for the sides of a long raised garden. The sunniest part of our yarn is behind the garage so we knew they would be the perfect length to fit.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Jeff and Malcolm set the door sections into the ground, turned over the dirt, added compost and more organic dirt and now we are ready to plant!! It is happening this week!

I woke up this morning just knowing I had to walk

I woke up this morning just knowing I had to walk on the beach. I’m not sure why it was so strong today but I needed to dig my toes in the sand, feel the breeze in my face, & connect to the earth. So we did! It was so great to see lots of others needing to connect too. The water was freezing cold but there were kiddos splashing happily. There were people just excited to have a little bit of normal.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I can’t recommend some kind of nature connection highly enough. Especially in this stressful, sometimes out of control time - just get outside!!

My hubby and son outdid themselves for my birthday

My hubby and son outdid themselves for my birthday re-do. My birthday happened during the frigid weather a few weeks ago so we all decided to re-schedule. They surprised me with these crystal beauties and I just love them! The selenite tower will be getting a light underneath too so that it glows. They told me they had a ton of fun shopping for them at @genosmine too. You gotta go there - Brenda is the best!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have just recently started collecting different crystals and learning about them and I am just fascinated! Do you collect them? What are your favorites?

These may be the best granola bars in the history of the world! Ok, ok, may not the whole history but they are SO good! They were really easy and have healthy ingredients too. Thanks to @loveandlemons for creating this recipe because I will be making many more.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I made mine with almond butter instead of peanut butter and it worked perfectly. The only other change I would make is the possible addition of a drop or 2 of Cinnamon Bark essential oil for a little zing.

I just gotta share this amazing supplement! It's one of our daily non-negotiables - fish oil. But not just any fish oil: Fermented Cod Liver Oil mixed with Butter Oil. Doesn't that sound rich?!?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cod Liver Oil is so good for you in so many ways. It contains more vitamin A and more vitamin D per unit weight than any other common food. And in tons of studies, the omega-3 fats found in cod liver oil have been shown to improve brain function, memory, stress response, immune response, allergies, asthma, and learning and behavioral disorders.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are even more benefits to Cod Liver Oil and it becomes even stronger when you combine it with Butter Oil - it allows for greater absorption. This combo is great for dental issues too!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We get this supplement from @greenpastureproducts because it has stringent standards. If you CALL to order and give them my name as a referral, you will receive $5 credit on your account. (402) 858-4818
