I Am Essentially Hooked

My new phrase is, there is an oil for that. Yep I have jumped with both feet into the world of essential oils. My youngest daughter gave me the kit for Christmas and I have always got something going in the diffuser or in my water bottle. I have been able to come off of some of my prescription medicines and feel better all the way around. I have a pain cream for my knees, a capsule of lemon and peppermint I take for weight loss, a capsule of cedarwood I take for sleep and I diffuse Thieves to keep away the germs and orange at night to help me sleep. I have started doctoring everyone I come in contact with using my oils. If you have a runny nose, I have an oil for that. If you have a cough, I have an oil for that. If you snore, I have an oil for that too. People laugh and say that I am dabbling in witchcraft. No way...these are oils that you can find talked about in the Bible. There are something like 150 different oils. I would rather tell people that I use Bible Brew. LOL. But seriously, I'm not going hippy crazy about using oils but I am happy that I can stop using some of the really harsh chemicals that I have been putting in my body all of these years. I only wish I had known about them a long time ago.

Life has really been a lot of fun in the last couple of months. Thank goodness Christmas has come and gone and all the mess is cleaned up. I had really started to get carried away with decorating this year. If Christmas hadn't of come around so fast I'm afraid I would have blown the house up. We even had to add electrical outlets outside and new breakers to cover some of the things I had put up. Just imagine the look I got when I told my husband I needed to have outlets added to the outside. It was priceless. He is used to me telling him that I have started a project, but usually I do it myself and don't involve him in the process. We had lights everywhere. I have to say though I did enjoy looking at my decorations more this year than I have in a long time. I thought it was just the right balance and turned out pretty good even if I do say so myself.

The days have gotten cold, the nights have gotten colder. I think there have been more days with rain than without in the last year. I feel like I never got to enjoy summer last year because it was so wet. I am sitting here covered in my essential oils thinking about what to cook for supper. I know this post has rambled a bit, but if you read the header you will see that it tells you these are my daily ramblings. Here comes the part where I ask you to try something. Find something that brings you happiness, brings back a memory or just makes you feel better and give it a try. You might find out that even when the days are shorter and the weather turns bleak you can still find a smile hiding somewhere. Find something simple that makes you smile and get hooked. If you have trouble figuring it out, contact me, there is probably an oil for that.

Be Blessed
