It Seems I’ve Lost My Marbles
Thursday, June 3rd, 2010I know I just wrote about my husband being a crazy man, but it seems that I’m just about as crazy as he is! Just a small warning: This gets a bit personal so if you aren’t cool with that, I won’t hold it against you. While driving home from our Memorial Day trip to [...]
Sharing my love of cloth— With the Whole neighborhood!
Tuesday, March 30th, 2010It has been raining quite a bit here lately which means my journey into the backyard entails a slosh through a mudbog. Something I’m trying to avoid at all costs. Even so, LBG has 4 dipes that are desperately in need of Mother Earth’s stain removal services. Since I wasn’t about to give myself a [...]
Our First CDing Water Bill
Wednesday, February 10th, 2010Today was the day we’ve been waiting for! Our very first water bill since LBG has starting living in cloth. I was expecting it to be at least 15 dollars more than our usual one. If it was $75 more, we might reconsider our choice of diapering method. Keep in mind, in the month of [...]
It’s Nine O’clock on a Saturday…
Saturday, January 30th, 2010and the regular crowd shuffles in. There’s an old man sittin’ next to me, wonderin’ when I’ll put the laundry in!

We’re Down to a System!
Thursday, January 21st, 2010Who would have thought that in just two weeks (one week for The Father,) we’d have our diaper routine down pat?! First I should speak about our preferences. I love, love, love prefolds. Please don’t ask me why, because I have no idea. The Father likes pockets, AIOs, and fitteds. I try to save the [...]
…and you thought stripping was fun!
Tuesday, January 5th, 2010Today I met with a lady from Craigslist who was selling her cloth diapers. I won’t get into all the crazy deets, but long story short: I went thinking I’d spend $70 and walk away with 4 or so diapers and her Snappis. Yeah after a bit of haggling, I bought her ENTIRE… yes, you [...]
A Grating We Will Go…
Monday, December 21st, 2009OK, go ahead and laugh. I love, love, love doing laundry! I could sort, wash, and dry all day long. Folding, on the other hand, not so much. A few weeks ago, I decided I’d had enough of my current laundry detergents. They don’t have labels with the ingredients and I’m sure they are laced [...]
