Essential Oils?? doTERRA

 I've been using some oils now for a while. Different brands And I have to admit I like some company's over others. 

I have been using doTERRA  Breathe for a year now and I'm off my inhalers. I was doing better last year but still had to wear my mask while outside, most of the time. (Not just because of COVID) anyway I started a new medication that is natural and is has boosted the effectiveness of the oils. No mask while outside on my porch...

So... I thought I would share with you all a link to the lady that helped me. Her name is Viola Gatlin. She is a real sweet Lady!  you can reach her at this link Viola 

And just so you know, I'm not selling anything, I get nothing out of it if you order. That's not why I'm sharing this. It truly has helped me and I wanted to share. I know all people are different and what works for one might not another. But you won't know if it will help unless you try.

I'll be posting some cards again soon. in 2 weeks playing with paper I've made about 50 cards. My sister runs out of cards faster than I can make them for her. lol and my daughter has asked for a few, so...

Hope you all have a wonderful week. 

Love Nana

It's been a while...

 Well hello" I never really did much over at bloglovin...LOL 

Hubby and I moved out of mom's so we are considered empty nesters again. I'm not crazy about having and empty nest. But guess I'll get use to it.

Our middle son had to have another back surgery. We got him a special chair as he can't sit very well. I just have to share. It is from Autonomous. He did all the research for the chair he wanted. and I'm thinking of getting me one of them too. If you want to look at there site check them out through my link please. Autonomous  I can get a gift for referral and it will help me get the chair I want for my craft room.

Anyway, I've still been following a lot of crafters. Love JenofEve Designs on YouTube, and Karen Burniston dies. I love her pop ups. so clever and cute. and so easy to make.

Well hopefully see you soon, Leve me a message if you are so inclined;)

Change over to Bloglovin

I’m changing over to Bloglovin as Google is changing so many things. I actually thought blogger and Bloglovin was the same thing for a short time😂 my brain is more a sive lately. Sorry I have been so quiet hear... but have been quite everywhere lately. 

Helping my mama and teenage girl is taking time, not that I do that much. We all work at helping each other. I feel so bad for mama as I can’t do anything for her pain. And having raised 3 boys, having my niece now is fun, and educational. Girls are so SO different than raising boys. lol But I love her as my own and wouldn’t change having her for anything!

Well life keeps going... and I must get going too. Love to all! 

Thanks for reading and sharing with me.

My FIRST time to fly🤯

My hubby talked me into going to ST Thomas USVI... I cant believe I said yes...So I know we will be busy and enjoying some sun and fun. Not to mention 3 little boys I haven’t seen in a couple of years. So excited! I watched mama grow up into a fine young woman and wonderful mama. Hard to believe she has 3 boys like I did. LoL I’ve never been on a plane or out of the United States.

Funny but first thing I could think of packing was some craft supplies to keep my hands and mind busy. This will be so different. I’m not a big people person because of having multiple chemical sensitivity. Shoot laundry detergent, shampoo and deodorant are horrible triggers not to mention perfume and cologne 😰Can’t take oxygen tank on plane, in case I need it. And insurance turned down using a pulse concentrator. Because they say I need steady flow. So going without. Have new mask and hubby says they have air vents that can blow in my face, so I’m going to try and be positive. This is going to be great!

A couple of reactions are either bawling and feeling like I’ve been beat with a bat from head to toe. Or I can get rather violent and down right mean. So Rescue Remedy, ✔️ meds, ✔️ masks with new filters✔️✔️✔️ I got 3 of them 😉

This is going to be in part our second honeymoon. We got married on a Saturday afternoon 37 years ago in May. Early Sunday morning he woke up sicker than a dog (streptococcus) and Monday morning I had it... so we spent our first 2 weeks together 🤒. Our boys are grown and have families of there own, so we thought this would be something we could do for ourselves.

This is going to be a great adventure!!! Will post pictures when I can. We leave in a week from today. I can hardly wait...

Until I post again...XO Nana
