simplifying...

i'm all about simplifying my life

in any way that i can.

~~~

i have made my life simple

in many ways.

i've simplified my life for many different reasons

and over several years,

and i keep looking

for new ways to simplify.

~~~

i want a simple life

because that's what makes the most sense to me.

~~~

i want to grow as much of our food as i can.

i want to handmake whatever i can.

i want to be as green as i can.

i want to live with less.

~~~
all of this is really important to me.

~~~

i will be sharing with you

some of what i've done

to simplify my life.

~~~

i'm starting with laundry.

~~~

this is the laundry soap i made.

i use 1 scoop per load.

~~~

1 c washing soda

1 c borax

and 1 bar of fels naptha, grated.

~~~

it smells good and i love that i am able to make it myself!

~~~

during the winter

most of the laundry

goes in the dryer.

during spring, summer, and autumn,

i hang my laundry outside on a clothesline.

i love the fresh scent

and the crispness the laundry gets

from being outside.

~~~

making my own laundry soap

and hanging our laundry on the clothesline

feels good and simply done to me.

make it a simple day!
