I ran a few quick errands and met a friend for lunch Saturday and used the rest of the day to clean and bake. That gave me a little time on Sunday to take a nap. I napped so hard I drooled all over my pillow!
Accomplishments:
*Made a batch of granola bars
*Made 2 loaves of whole wheat bread with a mix and recipe from my cousin. I finally made a decent loaf of bread!
*Made an apple crisp for Sunday dinner with some Granny Smith apples I needed to use up.
*Attended a DoTerra essential oil class and got some free gifts. I signed up for their membership program and discussed becoming a product consultant with the teacher. I am taking the first steps toward this goal!
*I did some research on a good oil to help with the recurring warts Austin has been getting on his thumb. I've been to the dr multiple times and the creams (which are quite expensive) only cause the skin to rapidly regenerate and does not actually kill the virus. Oregano oil has been found to kill viruses so I added 5 drops to 1 tsp of olive oil to spread on his thumb twice a day. It's looking better so far.
*I also mixed some of the stronger oils with olive oil and put them in roll-on bottles. I use an oil blend called Breathe quite often when the kids get stuffy. Allergies are bad here now, so I've been rubbing the oil on Austins feet, chest and nasal bridge and also diffusing it at night. I'm hoping this will help so he won't need to take Singulair.
*I diffused a blend called On Guard to fight germs and boost the immune system. I added some drops of it in a spray bottle of water to sanitize the table and counters. I put some in a roll-on bottle to rub on the kids' hands. There is a stomach virus going around Austins school, so hopefully this will protect him.
*Ryan and I were able to attend the Temple this week.
*I made some handmade games for the kids and made a reading game for Austin to practice decoding CVC words.
Menu:
Monday: lasagna roll ups and salad (I made these last week with the leftover lasagna ingredients and froze them).
Tuesday: baked chicken strips, boiled potatoes, salad
Wednesday: I am going out with a friend, so I have frozen cooked beef for Ryan to do tacos with the kids
Thursday: broccoli cheddar soup and bread (I will use my dry cream of chicken soup with some broth as the base and add some shredded cheddar cheese and steamed broccoli and carrots)
Friday: eating out with my sister for her birthday with the family
Saturday: eating out again with my sister for her girls night on her 30th bday
Sunday: tangy crockpot chicken and salad
This is an eventful week. At some point I will also be making Kimi's cake and making a banner for her party.
