Most days I am a clock water. I work from home so I don't watch it to see when I can go home. I watch to see when everyone else will be home. I agree it does make the time go by slower. I just can't seem to help myself.

I drink water most of the time. This has been a huge adjustment for me. I was hooked on drinking Coke for years, then wanted to cut out the caffeine due to anxiety so I gave it up. So I switched to water and while I do occasionally miss the coke, it is not as bad as I thought it would be.

Hi, I did get some yard work done. Mowed the lawn and then we took out two bushes that we did not like. today I put some dirt, stones and flowers and planted a new flower bed. Now I am tired. I still have some house cleaning to do before I can relax. How has your day been?

I have never attempted to grow basil, but I might. Our next door neighbor used to grow it and when he watered his garden it smelled so wonderful. I loved it.

My cousin brought me a plant that I have growing out on the back deck. I have been trying to find ways to use it. I am going to try the hint on mixing it with butter. Now that I have kept the Rosemary growing for a while, I might be ready to move on to some other types of herbs.

I do think that certain scents can impact how one feels. Certain smells seem to make me feel better and happier. I don't think that it would really help serious issues or illness however.

I have recently noticed that I have more aches and pains during these times. Usually my back and for some reason my ankle will start to ache. Not fun.

This is such a good idea. I would love to do this with my granddaughter. She is getting to that age where she is starting to like crafts. I used to love crafty projects when my daughter was younger too. Then she got to that age where she had better things to do. We never did make candles though...

Hi, I am doing fine today. How are you? It is a beautiful day here today. I am thinking about heading outside to get some yard work done. I have been procrastinating.:)

Hi, I very rarely do and I know that I should. It is strange that I don't since my kids are grown and I can. My problem is I work from home and spend time either working, cleaning or with my family. On the rare occasion when I do take the time to get out, it does feel great.

Hi, I have not tried this but I love to grill and I have Rosemary growing in the back so I plan to give it a try this weekend. I will report back once I do. Thanks for the idea.

Hello Everyone, I am new to your forums. Just joined a few minutes ago. I look forward to reading a lot and learning a lot. I have just recently become interested in living a more healthier lifestyle and learning all that I can about that. Have a great evening.
