I've mentioned that we make Four Thieves Vinegar for the year, and especially for winter months, and now I am making a Four Thieves Spray to clean the house with.

Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
The weather. . .
49°/30° today, heading up to the 60's later this week, but lots of rain.
As I look outside my window . . .
Calm, a bit sunny.
Right now I am . . .
Brewing coffee late.
Thinking and pondering . . .
Wondering if there is a difference in using licorice root for tea making or licorice root slices? Does anyone know? I tried googling it and it just kept giving me uses etc.
On my bedside table. . .
Water, two crochet hooks, clock, remote, and heater remote.
On my TV this week . . .
I'll be honest, I'm not finding anything interesting on Netflix. I may look at our movie stash this week.
Listening to . . .
Rock, 70's. A girl's gotta have something to motivate this extreme clean, take back the house, get it organized stuff.
On my lunch plate . . .
I boiled eggs, so eggs or egg salad. Or sliced egg on a cracker with a spread.On my dinner plate . . .
Not sure yet.
On the menu this week . . .
-Leftover sheet pan dinner (chicken sausage/carrots/potatoes), leftover asparagus and broccoli
-Chicken Spaghetti, garden green beans
-not sure on the rest just yet
Breakfast(s):
-Scrambled pesto eggs, bacon
-Chili Cheddar Egg Bake, sausage
On my reading pile . . .
I'm still reading Atomic Habits. I am really enjoying this book, but not much time to read lately.
On the to-do list . . .
-laundry
-dust
Plans for the week . . .
1. Start painting odor sealant on upstairs wood flooring
2. Get garden fencing up, or at least get it purchased
3. Gather all the donation items and deliver them (two places)
4. Gather all the trash (from the big purge) and get it out of the house (trash bin outside is FULL!)
What I am creating . . .
Also, a new tincture was made, and I will post tomorrow.
My simple pleasure . . .
Yogurt/peanut butter dip and apple slices. I prefer organic greek plain yogurt mixed with just some organic peanut butter. You can add honey for added flavor, but the peanut butter is enough for me.Looking around the house . . .
I have a lot to go through, before I move any craft supplies to the upstairs.
From the Camera. . .
I inherited a knit pattern from one of my Grandmothers. I found it in the box of beads. However, she did not write down the size of knitting needle. I have tucked this away for now. It appears she used worsted weight yarn for it though. Anyway, getting tucked away until I have more free time. My focus is to get this house back in order.
Bible Verse, Devotional, Quote. . .
Prayers for Daughter E. Her cat Tiger is in Kitty Heaven now. He was 14 years old. I will miss that turd. He was a wonderful cat with a very lovely personality.

I love the colors on that afghan! Have a beautiful week!
Joanna, thank you!
So sorry about your daughter's cat. He had a nice, long life. I don't know what I would do with the doll and sweater set. I saved things for my daughter but she had two boys. I have one granddaughter but her mom isn't into having stuff like that. Soooo... I finally donated it all to the thrift store. Hope you have a good week... I know you will have a productive one!

Debi, thanks. I am so confused with the doll. The clothing is missing, and the color of the booties is the color of the doll one of my sisters got, and the sweater set doesn't fit the doll either. I just can't save it all, and my kids have zero interest is storing stuff they can't use.
Peanut butter and apples sound good. So sorry to hear about your daughter's cat. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your week.
Jean, my one daughter told me she mixes yogurt with peanut butter for the apple dip and it so good. Thanks, we will miss Tiger dearly.
aww too bad the museum is closed for the doll. Maybe you can put it to giveaway on an antic site?
Looks like you are as busy as ever.
So sorry for your daughter's cat.
Have a good week
Thank you Luludou, we will miss Tiger. He was a good cat and very loving.
