My stress is from moving and not being able to soap! LOL

Today I'm.grateful that I'm not a hoarder or a clutter collector, because that would make this packing take way longer. And I'm grateful that my ocd tendencies lead to my world being pretty organized , so packing is faster. And I'm grateful that because I'm single, I'm only packing for me LOL...

Ty ladies, that's what I thought :)

So, thanks to the financial crisis with the roommate, I'm moving in 4 days. If things go well and my cousin comes through, I'll be moving into a 1 bedroom that I can afford alone. If things don't go well, then everything I own goes into storage and I couch hop for the first time in decades...

Susie, I'm so glad too for sure. Not all my soaps work for me though. The high CO soaps (>10%) seem to make me dry and itchy. But the ones at 10% seem ok, which is awesome, because it means I can use my own soaps if I keep the CO lower than 15% :)

I feel the same way, too much on my plate right now. It is a move up, sorta LOL. My cousin is helping me get into an apartment on my own, so I don't have to deal with roommates any more. It's going to be harder to make the bills, but it's got to be done. Once I move, I'll have to start figuring...

I want so bad to try this challenge but I am in the middle of packing to move next week and I'm out of a lot of soap oils, with no cash for more til next month. Grrrr!

What a cutie :)

I am so loving this thread :)

I can't speak to the science of "why", I can only speak to the reality of it. I recently (few months ago) posted a thread about not being able to use any of my own soaps because they were so very drying. So I began playing with recipes to create a much milder bar, with very little CO, etc...

Hahahaha

I have that mold, it was a gift from a member, and I'm eager to play with it too. I think it could make some very adorable soap :)

How beautiful is that dress!! Awesome :)

I'm grateful for... ... the people who have my back when the poop hits the oscillator ... that I have a resourceful nature and can find solutions to seemingly unsolvable problems ... that my kids and family are whole, hardy, and well ... that my philosophy of living an honest life yields the...

Ha! Too true

I'm not buried yet but it may happen if I keep going LOL

ty :)

I've been telling people about yoga for years. It really does help me relax when I'm squirrelly brained. I read a lot also, and write, but I agree with you, they aren't enough to occupy the mind sometimes. I'm so sorry to hear about your accidents, that's terrible. Hugs.

Hahahahahaha

TY :) I deal with ptsd related anxiety and insomnia a lot, and having something intricate and meticulous to work on helps a great deal to calm my brain down and relieve stress. You would think it would be stressful in itself, but it's the opposite. When I can't get my brain to stop squirming, I...
