I buy the molds for soaps from a craft superstore, but the ingredients I never buy from there, I go to a all natural health store, they sell all the ingredients, I usually get my receipes for my lotions off the internet cause I am too cheap to buy the books LOL

Handcream receipe, it rocks!

3/4 cup of apricot or almond oil
1/3 cup of coconut oil or cocoa butter
1 teaspoon lanolin
1/2 oz of grated beeswax

Melt these ingredients over low heat. Cool to room temperature. While these ingredients cool, mix together:

2/3 cup of rosewater
1/3 cup of aloe vera gel
1-2 drops of rose oil
the contents of 1 vitamin E capsule

ooh! That sounds nice!! I'm saving that in my notes. I just ordered another set of oils. How long does that keep before going rancid w/ the rosewater being in it? or does the Vit E help preserve it?

You will have to shake the bottle, but my lasted a long time. and don't use too much of the oils cause that can be bad LOL. I also make a peppermint foot lotion as well, facial scrubs and masks. I have tried the hair products but they haven't turned out for me yet LOL.

Awwe. You don't like essential oils? I'm used to greasy lotions. I use pure jojoba oil straight out of the shower.

Mood/Thoughts:
I am not in a happy place this morning. I may have got 2 hours of sleep max. I'm pooped. What a great way to start the week off, huh? On top of that, there's a special visitor in town, it's a no carb day, AND we have to go to the gym tonight since we're missing tomorrow. Lifting on a no carb day is going to suck. I skipped cardio this morning, but I've found a 5k program that looks like fun for a change (I found a couple on different sites, but they didn't interest me). Thank goodness it has Mondays off. Here it is... I'm going to do the Intermediate plan w/ an 8:00 mile pace. Hopefully I'm not aiming too high. http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,sss6-238-244--6406-3-2X5X9-4,00.html

--Now I just have to figure out when to fit in HIIT. Hubby and I are going to start doing 10 minute warm-ups and cool-downs at the gym on lifting days, so maybe I'll do it then.

Tomorrow will be a better day. I'll just have to tough it through this one... and try my damnedest to stay awake during work. I'm sure I'll be guzzling down the coffee and tea like no other! I was going to try giving up diet sodas again, but I don't know that it's the smartest week to do so since it's off to a rocky start.

I did a similar program, without the hitt and I found I didn't not progress as much as I liked then I added hitt 2 times a week in place of two running days and there was a huge difference in my times by even the next week.

Hope today isn't too hard on you
