My choice for post surgery care for the scar from my recent shoulder replacement is Correct X. Use as you would an antibiotic ointment. Here's the link. Connect with me here or on messenger if you have questions or would like to order.

These naturally occurring, volatile aromatic compounds are found in the seeds, bark, stems, roots, flowers, and other parts of plants.

House plants with knats...Big Yuk!
I brought home a beautiful basil plant. Despite good care it suddenly died 1 week later. All my house plants were soon after infested with fingus knats. Here's a spray recipe that got rid of the knats, works on fruit flies too. The bugs apparently dont like the oils and the soap will cause the bugs to expire. Soap can affect the hormone balance of plants so use with care. I found a DIY recipe that called for a tea made from the following herbs and used oils and bottled water in place of the tea.
I took a 10oz spray bottle and filled it with dechlorinated water (see comments at the end of this post). I mixed one drop each of thyme, rosemary, lavendar, with water and a couple drops of eco safe dish soap. I lightly misted my plants and the top of the soil. Bugs were gone almost immediately and still gone 4 days later 😎.

The oils will treat the water too and in a few days cause the soap to coagulate.

Watch for surviving eggs to hatch in 1 week.

Plants do not do well at all with the chlorine in tap water. You can dechlorinate the tap water by waiting at least 24 hours before watering your plants with it. This will allow the chlorine to disipate. I use 10 gallons of dechlorinated water a day in my outdoor plants too. And my plants have no signs of illness or disease.

Loving my difuser. Sunshine and the pleasant scent of lemon and peppermint.

Bring the freshness of spring into your home. Improve your ability to relax and be calm, even during stressful times. Put 2 drops of rosemary and 2 drops of thyme in your difuser. You'll love the sweet fragrant aroma that fills the air. Thyme calms your nerves and Rosemary uplifts the spirit. Add one drop of Vetiver to the mix at bedtime and drift off to happiness in dreamland.

Started the meat for tomorrow's spaghetti sauce. Seasoned it with oils; oregano oil, basil oil, and rosemary oil. along with fresh bay leaf, garlic cloves and onion. Yumm, and my kitchen still smells wonderful. Love cooking with oils. Just 1 drop of each, that's 200 dishes from 1 bottle of oil. We got spices for days at doTerra.
