Aw Flav! You always seem to have things break at the same time. Yikes! Hopefully, it'll go better than the last time.

Hey, I have a question for you. I want to make sachets for the babies dresser drawers. What kind of scent would smell kind of like baby powder or do they make one that smells like that? I have no idea and you ARE the queen of scents!

Flava,
Not sure how much you are into this if any at all, but Mercury is in retrograde until the 17th of March I believe. Started last week.
This is a time where electronics break and it feels like one step forward, 2 steps back!

Yes I like Astrology! LOL

It better not break my new vacuum cleaner! I just got it on Saturday! I've been using a broom and dust mop for TOO long! I claim GLP effect! Save the appliances!

LOL!! Just keep in mind if anything goes awry, you have something to blame! LOL

Well, I've still got the box and shipping box, so if it breaks, I can send it back. I love that thing, though!! I finally talked hubs into letting me get the new Shark. I don't want it to break!

To me, orris root smells like baby powder, at least the Essential oil does. You could probably put it on any dried botanicals and let it set in. You could also buy some potpourri scent and put it on potpourri that you make and then put it in the sachets.

I love astrology! I havent followed it to closely lately, I am emersed in serum recipes. So keep me posted. Is there a certain site you frequent? Mercury must be circling my house! I guess better the electronics break vs the people

Thanks! I know I can find that one. How long do you think it would need to set in? Overnight? Could I put it on something like cotton balls or wouldn't that work? I don't want them to be too strong, either.

I don't have a favorite! I usually like to google and compare what they all have to say! Sooo many too!

This is just a random:

Making the Most of Mercury Retrograde:
A major cause of stress at Mercury retrograde is frustration from mishaps, things breaking down, computers going black. But if we know it's cycle, this makes it feel less terminal. If things go pear-shaped, see what's there to see. Take a break from the usual routine.

Just observe and see what happens, and be open to the past returning for review. If it's coming back, there's likely something more to learn or release from it. This can be a good (and productive) time, in its own way.


There is so much more to this than just the electronics! Interesting, like not making important decisions and signing contracts!

I think if you put the dried stuff in a glass jar with a cover and then sprinkle the EO on it and shake it, overnight would probably be fine. I would fill it half way, put a few drops, than fill the rest of the way and add a few more drops.

Well I hope leases dont count cause Ive done 7 in the past week and that includes 2 today.
Hope I dont end up with asshole tenants

Thanks, Flav. The shower is next Saturday and I thought I could make some up really quick.

Hope everyone here is doing well. Am behind in reading. Last I read on this thread, TB, you were looking for baby things that said daddy.

There's an I Love Daddy and Daddy's Little Girl onsie on this link. Probably not great quality for that price, but they outgrow them fast anyway.

I LOVE that site!! Thanks! I got busy with the storm and didn't get a chance to search.

Don't be scared. We don't bit....much/often!LOL

YW. It looks like it was, and is, still a real mess out there. Was hoping you escaped it!

The weather reports said we got about 4 inches, but I think most of it blew away. The real mess starts about an hour north of here. I-40 is still closed, from Alb. to the OK line, last I heard. Semi's everywhere.

Wow. Glad the bad part missed you. Too bad those inches don't convert to more water. 8( Still seems like a lot though for an area that doesn't usually get it.

For now, we'll gladly take what we get. The good thing is once the moisture starts to fall, it'll keep falling. Hopefully, we're seeing an end to the drought. Fingers crossed.

We got lots or rain today, of course, thats cause i had to go microwave shopping. I was dodging rain bullets all day

Glad to hear your area didn't get hit too bad. My daughter got 12" today and they say 5" more overnight tonight. They closed the base so they didn't have to worry about trying to get to their jobs. They made a really big snowman, we never get much snow here so snowmen are out of the question.

Damn, I keep getting timeouts and server not avaible, then double posts!

I gave up and shut off the computer. I kept getting the server down message. Just popped back on to log off. Sorry I missed everyone.

TB,

Baby shower this Sat?

Oops! Yes, this Saturday. I forgot what day it was!LOL

I had problems on glp all last night. Kept saying server problems.

Today the guy is setting up my new computer, which he says is a ferrari of computers. He asked who picked it and I said I did. He wanted to know how I knew to get such a good one, since I know nothing of computers, and I said I wanted windows 7 and something pretty. He just about died laughing.

Anyway.. I am going to love this thing once I get to use it, I have fingerprint AND face recognition passwords, so nobody else around here can download stupid shit and ruin it.

LOL!! I knew you had good taste Flava!!!

well I didnt know it had all that fingerprint face stuff so that was an added bonus!

I'm hoping you are done replacing and repairing for awhile. Maybe new kitten would really put you over the top.
