Life Adventures for Miles

So I want to produce one craft a week (I feel like I am biting off more then I can chew, here, actually). I figured this way my stop and go love/hate relationship and half-finished and just started projects that I am famous for in my house, can all be increased! haha, well, hopefully, the projects will be completed (especially since it will give me something to write about). Today's post: weaving! So I got a weaving kit at some point at the beginning of our stay in NC and realized while i enjoyed the act of weaving and  (I really like using them as inner layers for stuff), the lap loom I had, was, well, lap-sized, so it was small with slits for the warp (the vertical material along with the frame) the were evenly spaced but a good 24 of them notched together. I had trouble keeping my warp on the notches, to begin with but it all felt so...claustrophobic-ly small! Once I found ways to use existing furniture that the shape I wanted to weave (it was usually bigger), I quickly ditched...

Cooking has never been a strong point for me. I had no interest in it (mostly because I had no attention span or patience so I would wander off to do other things while I waited for the food to cook or water to boil, ect., and then forget about it) and growing up and even now I have people who loved to cook so I never really have to do more than nuke a meal. In my little immediate family of three, my husband loves to cook...and is pretty territorial about his kitchen and its gadgets (its uber fun times when my child loves to learn and play with them). However, being a mom that is currently staying home all day with her -almost- four year old, I have realized that feeding said child is pretty important (haha) and thus started out my cooking career. Now, don't get your hopes up because I still cook mostly like a "college student"-top ramen, anyone?- however, there are days when my husband is just too tired to cook and doesn't want to order out so I step up to the plate....

So I found my self in a pickle last night. The result is a call to my doctor for IUD removal (I am apparently in that percentage where it just doesn't feel comfortable and finally got sick of dealing with it) and a homemade Katja concoction for UTI -which is very common to have but I never seem to be ready for it, thus a pickle!  Home remedies they say that helps... 1) HYDRATE 2) VITAMIN C 3) PROBIOTICS/ ANTIBIOTICS 4) GARLIC, APPLE CIDER  VINEGAR, CRANBERRIES/OTHER SUCH PLANTS 5) PROPER HYGIENE (for both sex and the toilet) I also found this video that is sort of centered on COVID-19 but seems to be more informative about vaccines in general. Either way, good information to know!!!!
