10 Other Things Going on at Yolinna's Other Mat

1. Restorative Yoga Day was beautiful and quite relaxing. (for me too!)

2. Cory has been attending classes full time at PGCC and really enjoys them.

3. The Birdhouse Gourds are humongous! See:




4. My next door neighbor sold his house. We will miss him! He has lived next door for almost as long as we have....he left us his patio set which is gorgeous and cushiony. Thanks Glen!

5. I have been creating all kinds of herbal products, the latest of which are "Soap Scrubbies"! They're little scrubby balls filled with herbs, oatmeal & gentle soaps and oils... lavender or mint... great for kids and adults... See:

6. I have reworked all my eye pillows so now they open at the side with velcro to re-up the scents and created all kinds of essential oils, fragrance mists and flower essences and am preparing for the Christmas rush. LOL!

7. We found a monarch butterfly that had just emerged from its chrysalis and a ba-dozen monarch caterpillars all over the milkweed in our gardens. See:



8. My mother turned 65.

9. We cleared out a bunch of old stuff. (not my mom ha ha)

10. We are getting used to using a webcam and messenger to communicate and my typing has increased dramatically. Plus! I've started writing again. (as opposed to blogging)

Hope you enjoyed this not about Rhia post LOL!

Those butterflies are awesome!

They are the only thing keeping my milkweed alive. Did you know it's a very bitter plant so the caterpillars become bitter when they eat them so they taste bad to preditors?
