Hectic Heaven

A productive day

I spent the first little bit this morning cutting logs of soap into bars, I need to make some lavender, sweet grass, basil lime, and sandalwood.  I bought 6 lbs of lye tonight, finally the store got it in, and I wiped them out of it  lol... I am going to have to start buying lye by the 50 lb bags, but its way to damp right now for me to break a bag like that down

...I got an order of soap wrapped and  delivered.  Tied up the loose ends at my previous job and now am hoping that soon the calls will start... I really do need to work at least 3 days a week... I got the bookkeeping for my gun club caught up. I spent a good part of the afternoon in town doing odd and end errands... you see I  dont care much for going to town, so when I finally make myeself go I have quite a lot to do, but then we do live  15 or so miles from town so I try to make sure Its worth the trip.

 

I think If I am home tomorrow I will work on a meal plan for the month, and then go shop for it... usually I do about 2 weeks at a time but since paydays will now be monthly ,I want to do most of the shopping once a month...

The declutter bug has bit as well.. time to start cleaning up some of these stacks that have been climbing higher and higher... hmm maybe I dont have time to work   Shhhh dont tell DH he would have a fit  lol....

You're soap sounds lovely. I tried my hand at it and was not very successful. But that has been a couple of years ago. I heard from some soaping friends that lye is getting hard to get. Must be true. But a 50 lb sack of lye is ALOT of lye!
