backsteps and cleaning the bathroom

I just finished cleaning the bathroom. I don't mind cleaning but I hate cleaning the bathroom. It's not just the grossness- it's the cleaners. Because I had lost a child and in an attempt to not lose another one I became over cautious. When I was pregnant with my second son, I wouldn't eat anything that I could not feed a baby....no pop...no junk food....I ate lots of cucumbers and kiwis. I also stopped doing things like using nail polish remover...creams with Vitamin A....certain face washes...no hair dying....and no harsh bathroom cleaners. I didn't want to be the cause of harm. To this day I feel the same...at least about cleaners...and preservatives....and school...and.....if I could only live in an Amish community, I might be happy. Fresh food and hard work. Simple.
But this wasn't the topic of the evening. I don't really have anything to blog about....except backsteps maybe. I hate backsteps. They make you feel like an idiot. Like you have been there, done that, and now you are just complaining. Squeezing every ounce of hurt out of something. Nothing happened, at least know to my knowledge, and a simple dream messed up my whole day. Well, maybe not simple and I know it points to bigger issues but I choose not to think about those. I need to go let the bleach clear out of my nostrils. G'night.

  1. When we come through in February, I'll bring you some Melaleuca bathroom cleaners. They have a strong smell, but they work well and are non-hazardous. The girl I signed up under (it's different then Tupperware, Epicure, etc) was testing and comparing bathroom cleaners during her third pregnancy and got a bad migraine...and miscarried two days later. Indoor air polution is serious business!
    But anyway, I can get some extra in January - it can be my hostess gift to you. ;)
