Somewhat back on track

Doing laundry today, and though it is humid, I will hang what I can to dry outside.

The borax/baking soda mixture in the dishwasher started not working anymore--there was a film on everything. It was wonderful for a couple weeks, and I was prepared to never buy dishwasher soap again. But it began creating a buildup on glasses and wasn't cleaning anymore. In the future I will use it in a pinch (like for a few days when my soap runs out). It may be best just to clean and freshen up the dishwasher every month or so. My current experiment with that is to use a cup of vinegar in the dishwasher and see if it cuts through the film. Stay tuned ...

So that diaper experiment ... when I am prepared to write about it, I will. As of this posting, I am still in the weeds with it.

Backsliding

Today, I just threw all the wet, clean towels from the July Fourth holiday right in the dryer.

Bought a bunch of fruit and vegetables today and didn't even look at where it was from.

Dreading the diaper experiment.

Still cleaning with vinegar and baking soda though! And heard of a new way to make dishwasher soap. Two teaspoons borax and two teaspoons baking soda. Hope springs eternal!
