I did a frozen cocktail post in the adult corner and thought it would be fitting to do a frozen one for the kiddos to cool off in this heat.  This recipe is super cheap and extremely easy! What you'll need: Your favorite brand of grape juice Grape Nerds (you can use all the flavors if you want) Create: Fill a freezer safe bowl with all the grape juice. Place in the freezer for 2-3 hours, it won't freeze it will become a slushie. Pour juice into cups and sprinkle with nerds.  

It has been the warmest summer in Virginia since we moved here. Once it hits 5:00 somewhere you should enjoy this refreshing cocktail to help cool you off. They are easy and delicious! Add gummy worms, bears or even sharks, or skip the candy all together your choice. This recipe makes 1 cocktail. What you'll need: 2oz coconut rum 1 1/2oz blue curacao liqueur 6oz pineapple juice 2oz orange juice 1c ice sour candy (your choice) Create: In a blender add all ingredients except the candy. Pulse until slushy. Pour your drink into the glass and add TONS of candy (if you want to). Sit back, kick your feet up and enjoy!  

I have made posts about DIY fresheners before but this is now my new favorite because it’s a 3 in 1 spray!  We live in a camper and I have been having problems with ants. So I’ve done research.

I sprayed everything in my camper down because it’s not just an ant repellent, it's an air freshener fabric freshener recipe so you can spray it wherever you like. Best part, it’s cheap and easy to make. What you’ll need: 8oz glass bottle 4oz water (distilled or purified, not tap) 2oz rubbing alcohol or vodka 60 drops of the essentia...

 When life puts you in tough situations, don't ask, "Why me?" Say, "Try me."

Effexor, Seroquel, Latuda, Caplyta, Prozac, Cymbalta, Lexapro, Xanax and Valium; those are just some names of medications you may not know of or what they are for.

During the time of the low our psychiatrist retired (which was fine I didn't really like her). We have found a new one! The new Dr. I am still up in arms about. I like that they don't believe in over medicating. I like that they are all about alternative healing and natural supplements on top of needed medication though! During this low I had no drive, no motivation, no feelings other than being depressed and feeling extremely overwhelmed! Hence why you haven't seen blog posts from me in forever. I've stated before that I love to blog, which I do but when y...
