How I make money online

I wanted to share one of the ways the I make money online, since people have been asking. I am a member of several paid survey groups, but the best one, by far, is called Opinion Outpost. They never ask for money, or try to sell you anything. All you do is sign up. They pay you to tell them about your self and your interests, and then they email you more surveys to take. You get paid for every survey that you complete. They are kind of fun and don't take up much time at all. I highly recommend them. Here is a link that will direct you to a page to sign up. They don't add new panelists all the time, but now is a great time to join!

It's Fall! Time for apples and Home made diaper wipes in a flash!

First thing's first

Apple drink:
 

Apple Pie in a Jar


You will need:
  • 1 gallon apple cider
  • 1 gallon apple juice
  • 6 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar, or to taste
  • 1 (1 liter) bottle 190 proof grain alcohol (such as Everclear™)

You will need to:

Place the apple cider, apple juice, cinnamon sticks, and sugar into a large pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat, and discard the cinnamon sticks. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then stir in the grain alcohol. Pour into quart-size canning jars, seal with the lids and rings, and refrigerate until ready to serve. 








Also...How to make your own quick and easy diaper wipes:

I was recently faced with a nightmare diaper rash on my 7 month old son. Lot's of trouble led me to the conclusion that he is allergic to aloe. Most diaper wipes have aloe and lots of other unnecessary chemicals, soaps, and perfumes. But at one point in time or another, most of us have kept one of those plastic tubs that wipes come in. It's just hard to throw them away. haha. So anyway, I now make my own wipes and they work great!

Here's what to do:
Step 1) add four tablespoons of water to the bottom of a plastic disposable wipes container
Step 2) add a couple of drops (You don't need much at all) to the water in the tub
Step 3) close the lid and swish it around good
Step 4) tear 10-10 (or however many you have time for) paper towels (the kind with the small size) into sheets
Step 5) fold the paper towel into thirds and place in the water/soap solution 

And there you have it! It's easy enough and the plastic tub keeps them from drying out. It works just fine for me and it's cheaper than buying wipes, but STILL DISPOSABLE! Yay!

Baby Allergies and Diaper rash: Are diaper wipes the enemy?

Our 7 month old recently cut his first tooth, or shall I say teeth. Yes. He cut two teeth at once. He had all of the nightmare teething symptoms; diahrea, fever, irritability..... Thanks to the diahrea, he got diaper rash.
I used all of my mommy skills trying to get rid of the rash, to no avail. I asked advise from friends and family, then tried all of that. Still, no better. I was honestly considering taking him to the hospital, when, as a last resort, I decided to look online. God bless the internet! You can find the answer to almost everything, and an opinion about everything else. 
A few pages into my research, I discovered that I am not the only one who has had this problem. Lots of ladies said to lay him out with no diaper, change diapers frequently, feed mild comfort foods, use diaper creams. Let me tell you, we bought every diaper cream on the market, and nothing worked. boudreaux butt paste worked the best, but nothing got rid of the rash.Then I read a few hundred more ideas on the web. 
Finally, I saw a few posts that said that the diaper wipes are the enemy! They are so full of perfumes and chemicals, that it's not a big surprise, is it? But the perfumes and chemicals are not the real problem. I was already buying hypo-allergenic, natural ingredient wipes. So, what was the problem? The ALOE EXTRACT in the wipes! Justice is allergic to Aloe. So much for hypo-allergenic! 
The worst thing is, that I searched far and wide for wipes with no aloe, and no perfumes, and couldn't find any. Not even on the web. 
What is the best solution that I found? I took those wipes and washed them out in warm water with a small amount of Johnson's baby wash and then put them back in the plastic tub moist. Within 24 hours of when I started using the cleaned out wipes, the rash cleared up. I wanted to share about this, because our of all of the advice on the web, this advise was rare. 
Ladies, if you try this method, please leave a comment so other moms can hear what you think.

Be sure to keep an eye out for more new offers, coupons, and deals!!
