Ever since we moved here, my houseplants have had fungus gnats! They are crawling around in the soil too. I tried letting my plants dry out between waterings and it seems they are still there. I finally got tired of sitting there trying to catch the flying gnats with the vacuum hose and bought some organic insecticidal spray soap stuff. It kills many other bugs but I think it will help with the gnats! When I was looking for a solution, I wanted something safe to use around Kyle as well as us. I don't want to pollute the air we breathe and it's safe enough to use on vegetable gardens. Earlier this week, I tried having small containers of water with a little bit of dish soap mixed in and that caught at least 20 gnats! Hopefully the organic insecticidal spray soap will work.
Kyle had preschool today. He went from 8:30am until 12pm today, so he stayed through lunch. It sounds like he did better today! He acts like he doesn't want me to leave but once he's preoccupied, I can leave and he's fine! He has school for the rest of this week as well.
We went grocery shopping at Walmart this afternoon. I am going to try to use coupons to help us save money. We have a Walgreens about 2 blocks from us so I am slowly building up my coupons and printing them out online. I am focusing on non-food items for now such as paper towels, toilet paper, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. I am going to try to follow the Walgreens ad and match my coupons with their sales to help us save more. I did have to buy paper towels and spray n wash today since we are almost out of paper towels and I really needed spray n wash!
I finally received another book to read and review! I've been bored for the last week so now I'll have something to do!
What is Crunchy? "Green;" environmentally-friendly. I love green cleaning and making my own laundry soap!

I just need to vent a bit… Just a little advice ~ If you want someone to purchase from a business that you represent, don’t be RUDE to them!...
