Simply Saturday a Little Life Update

Good morning everyone I hope you are all having an amazing day :) a lot going on this Saturday for me. Woke up early for no apparent reason so I have been a busy busy bee! Cleaning like crazy with a lot of laundry to do. Unfortunately I ran out of laundry soap so after 1 load I had to stop and make more laundry soap! You can find out how to do that HERE if you would like to find a great way to save money. I also did a little weeding in the garden which is going so great! I think I may have finally found a way to garden here in West Texas. Which does NOT mean I will be here forever but perhaps it can make it a little more enjoyable. I can't wait till Monday to show you what has been going on. My posts though till June will be limited on pictures :( apparently blogger does not love me enough to let me load pictures so the option is to put them on flicker so I can turn them into HTML and add them in. They limit the amount in one month that I can upload Booooo!!!! One more week of school/work here and the I have 3 days of training the following week and then I will be blogging more regularly and updating you on mission go off the grid! In fact a new tab will be added to the top of the blog VERY VERY soon! Well back to working on the house. My husband has a couple more hours of work then he is off the next two days, I unfortunately have to work on Monday :( Have a great weekend everyone and remember to follow your dreams.

30 Day Beach Body Challenge- Day 3 #30dayfitness

Here we are at day 3, now unfortunately I am to sick to work out today but I wanted to make sure that I shared the information with you on how to do these exercises so that everyone could easily get their's done. I will catch up as I can, may even try to add extra to the days once I feel better. For today it is 50 burpees and 50 kick down crunches. If you don't know how to do these make sure to scroll down for directions! You will also see why with the flu these aren't doable.lol HOW TO DO A BURPEE!

Putting On Girl Scout Badges With A Flat Iron

I love helping all my little daisies earn badges, but as a mom I hate putting them on. Lol I saw an idea on Pinterest a while back to use a flat iron so I thought I'd give it a try. It worked really well but I do have a couple suggestions. First make sure your badge is exactly where you want them. Unlike an iron this causes the glue to melt very fast! Second count I 3-4 and it is probably done! Lastly you will likely have to apply pressure to the end pinching it tight. Overall it worked very well and I will probably keep putting badges on this way :)

Homemade Fly Traps

We all love summer but as the weather gets warmer the flies get worse and worse. We have a bush out front of our house that I swear just attracts every fly in town! I wanted to get rid of them but I didn't want to kill all the wonderful butterflies it also attracts. So I went about finding a new way to kill them all. I had some empty Tazo tea bottles I simply poked a pen sized whole in the top, added 1/2 cup of water, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of dish soap, and 1 tablespoon of syrup.Now I do find that these work better if you place them in the sun :O) If you want to use a bigger container simply multiply the ingredients. Make sure your hole is only about the size of a pen cap! Then they can't seem to get back out.lol
