Just as I had been talking for years of getting into healthier eating and lifestyle habits, my husband had been talking for years of getting back into running. When one of our twins began running recently, it spurred him on to start too!

Still on the topic of health… speaking of statins.
The article linked below speaks about just a few of the very many reasons that I didn’t run straight to the pharmacy with a prescription in March when I was told I should begin taking meds to lower my cholesterol.

Brutal honesty time – health and wellness
I’ve been sharing about my health and wellness adventure on my facebook pages. For far too long I’ve been ‘hoping’ my health will get better, mainly because I actually felt really good for the most part! I haven’t been sick in a very long time, not since doTerra became a part of my life. The last time I was sick was well over a year ago now, no lie! I haven’t had a cold, flu or any other bacterial or viral sickness since. I’m able to do everything I want and need to do every day, from getting up at the crack of dawn to get my homestead and home business work done, to pulling hundreds of hay bales off a field and putting them up in the barn loft with the rest of the family every August. I keep up with the best of them! I even do better than some!

How’s those goals coming along?
I read yesterday that by February 4th most people have given up on their New Year’s Resolutions.
I thought that was kind of sad, so I figured it was time to check in! -
About our cloth pads – styles, sizes, shapes explained, part 2
Today I’ll be continuing to share about each size and style of cloth pads we offer.
The last and largest liner size that we offer is our Light Wrap Wing pad which is approx. 8 inches in length. These pads/liners, like the light comfort contour and tiny liner are good for a light flow and light incontinence. They are also great for teens/preteens and smaller framed women. The width of this pad works well with wider undies on it’s wider snap setting.

About our cloth pads – styles, sizes, shapes explained, part 1
When beginning with cloth, all the varieties can be confusing. There are so many different styles, sizes, shapes, fabrics, absorbencies AND even a wide range of prices!
I’m going to do my best to briefly explain the differences between all our pads.

The History of Homestead Emporium
As we celebrate our 12th year of creating, selling, and shipping our products all over the world, I’ve been reminiscing the past years in business.
I thought I would share a bit of history with you about the beginnings of Homestead Emporium, and how we got to where we are now! -
Taking a leap
For many years now I’ve struggled with one thing that I can not seem to shake.
Fear.If you’re up for it, stick around.
The future could be a train wreck you won’t want to miss.
Or… maybe… just maybe…
You’ll see me learn to fly. -
Some highlights from this week’s hyenacart stocking!
I’m really good about sharing highlights on our facebook page, but the blog is often neglected. So, I thought this week I should share here too! These are just a handful of my favourites from this week’s stocking in our shop here: http://hyenacart.com/stores/HomesteadEmporium/

Fabric Dyeing
I thought I’d post a little about my dyeing process. If you’ve been around our facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/HomesteadEmporium) you’ll know that I love to dye fabrics. I won’t go into details about my own little ‘tricks’ of the trade but I do know a lot of you would love to see some of my works in progress, and possibly even my dyeing ‘station’, so I figured I may as well share here on the blog. I seem to be a horrible blogger, always shareing on facebook in little spurts of info instead. It fits my busy days better, but doesn’t always give the full scope of things around here.
