We are about to embark on organization- something I can mainain but stink at setting up. <BR/><BR/>Monica's garland idea is just super! We have a kids' craft day this weekend at home (so I can can apple butter!!) on Saturday so we'll have to add that to the list.<BR/><BR/>Great to see that Nicolas is feeling better.

There are several brands and types at drug stores. I use a lozenge that melts in your mouth, but I know there are nasal sprays, pills, etc. It really works for me. <BR/><BR/>For the disinfecting, all the ideas mentioned already and a couple more. If you have a dishwasher, throw your toothbrushes in when you do a load. Also, bed pillows gather a lot of germs. I buy cheap pillows, and replace them often during cold season.Theresehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858848376857435090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-89689011387981171612009-03-12T09:51:00.000-05:002009-03-12T09:51:00.000-05:00We usually reach for the Polysporin eye drops when...We usually reach for the Polysporin eye drops whenever there is eye goop stuff happening.

I'm on the way to chat with you ;)<BR/>What I do to disinfect is wash everything down with a weak solution of soapy bleach water.. sink, counter tops, phones, door knobs.. inside fridge, fridge handles.. well, you get the picutre.. everything.<BR/>If you hand wash dishes, or if you scrub pans by hand then pour a bit of bleach into your dishwater.. then when finished washing dishes, use that water to go around wiping everything down.. that's how my mom did things and she grew up before they had things like spray disinfects.. its a good habit to get into even when no one is sick.<BR/>Good luck and prayers are comeing your way that all of you get well soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-72222496617654614952009-03-12T08:04:00.000-05:002009-03-12T08:04:00.000-05:00Hi Sandra, I love the garland and the fabric cover...Hi Sandra, I love the garland and the fabric covered boxes!

Now that you have refreshed my memory I have the perfect fabric now to find some boxes. <BR/><BR/>The older kids used to make terrariums all the time. I think it's time for the little munchkin to start one.

I kept my daughter home from school today - there's a cold going around her giant petri dish of a classroom and she has it, of course - but we at least made it to the PX to do a return and pick up some other things. Then I got home and realized I forgot most of what I wanted to get. I'm fighting the petri factory's cold as hard as I can. lol<BR/><BR/>As for the bees - a little something that worked for me when trying to harvest lavender from my flower garden in WA - wait until a little bit before sunset and gather the lemons. The bees will go back to their hives so they are home for the night. :-)Meloniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218572127310877215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-66180721771983727162009-03-12T07:24:00.001-05:002009-03-12T07:24:00.001-05:00You are amazing. :-)I love reading about all you d...You are amazing. :-)<BR/>I love reading about all you do and how it's all done with such love and peacefulness.<BR/>I hope everyone is feeling 100% today!Staciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162018158248579275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-20351597246548722912009-03-12T07:24:00.000-05:002009-03-12T07:24:00.000-05:00As everyone else mentioned I love your craft proje...As everyone else mentioned I love your craft projects, that garland is cute, cute cute.<BR/><BR/>Have you gotten rid of toothbrushes, disinfected lightswitches, door handles and washed lounge cushions, toys etc.everyday mom of onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640399066792389407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-59912190413108610112009-03-12T07:11:00.000-05:002009-03-12T07:11:00.000-05:00So how's his eye this morning?
