Make Slime
Just mix together 1/3 cup of the borax solution and 1 cup of the glue solution. If you are making bigger batches of slime, just use 1 part borax solution and three parts glue solution. It is fine to use your hands.

aplique
great site
http://www.myhappycrazylife.com/how-to-applique/
Trying hard to learn to appliqué the problem is I don't maneuver my fabric very well in my machine... So sewing around the edges looks sloppy :(
I just need to learn to use the machine better :?
Made 2 Onesies .. Instead of sewing around edges I used fray check and attached it with heatbond

minimizing chaos
currently we are living in a hellishly chaotic way.. we have great kids but desperate measures are needed to ensure it stays that way!!
time management :/
I've always struggled with this issue!
My current struggle is manage my time while the kids are at school!
I have from 7:30 to 2:45 and it's amazing how those 7 hours fly by!!
In general our lives are not organized
my goal is to simplify and organize out lives
