Elizabeth Roosevelt Quotes

Kirinyaga

This is a short science fiction story I read for my Rhetorical Criticism class which I really enjoyed. Mostly because it turned my thinking on its side a little. I like to find things that get my thinking out of its groove.

"The Brown Wasp" is the other reading for this particular section. I am so fortunate to have brilliant professors who filter through the world of literature and find gems like these. The Rhetorical concepts of home and place are the discussion topics this week and also the topic for our first paper. I am so into this section. Spectacular!

Personal Training

I aspire to get my PT certification before Summer. I hope to use it to help get by while student teaching! I am posting the link to my lessons here for myself so if anyone comes across it, trust me, it's boring.

Learning Guitar :)

I am going to post the vids and diagrams I am using to learn guitar on this blog! It is so fun. I kinda love it. But I want to check out lots of resources. I am going to save the best ones I find here. When I get going good I'll share it. Booyah!

 

This guy is pretty direct. I am going to go through his lessons and then a couple others. We'll see if he makes the final cut for this favorite!

All Natural Moisturizer DIY

I find that labels which contain ingredients that look like stuff you'd make a bomb with make me a little edgy! And I also have sensitive skin and try to avoid things that might irritate it. I have discovered that in the case of moisturizing the skin less is really more. Bells and whistles are fine for bicycles but when it comes to the skin mother nature knows a thing or two.
Try this simple combination of ingredients:

• Jojoba or Sweet Almond oil as a base combined with any of the essential oils you choose based on your needs. Add the following sparingly:

• Relaxation:

• lavender oil
• chamomile oil
•  sandalwood oil
• juniper 

• Invigoration:
• orange or lemon oil
• cinnamon bark oil - sparingly!
• peppermint oil - sparingly!
• eucalyptus and thyme

 Just combine about 4 oz of base with a couple of drops of the essential oils. Use in the bath or apply directly to your skin after the bath. I like to put the lavender and jojoba in a small dish and use it as a lip moisturizer on a daily basis. Lavender is my favorite for sure. But I like to mix it up! Peppermint can be a real treat when you are feeling tired and need to go a few miles before you get to go to bed! It's fun trying these out and deciding which you like best. I recommend shopping on amazon for the oils. The stores range widely in price and so do different essential oils. A small bottle can last a really long time! Enjoy!

Okay. This one is good for you too! It is also addictively delicious which is why I call it Mr. Delicious.

• 1 c unsweetened almond milk (30 cal)

Blend the above on your smoothie setting and discover Mr. Delicious. Yummers!
