Scott Naturals Tube-Free

So I again got picked as a tester by Crowdtap to sample another great product.

With my pledge of #TossTheTube I am taking a stance in saying it is time everyone on earth becomes more green. Being green is a big thing to my family and we are always looking for ways to lesson our carbon foot print and help save earth a little at a time. I saw this great video by Scott on how much waste we have just with the tubes from our toilet paper. You can watch the video below -


We toss away enough tubes to fill the empire state building TWICE! Yes you saw to correctly and if you saw the video you heard that correctly. How awesome is it that a company wants to take a step and make a change for the better? That is one thing I really appreciate in a business and it makes me want to purchase from them more. However I also still expect great quality. Scott has accomplished both in my opinion and I find it great that there is no tube when the roll is all gone. It's actually a little strange because you start to get to the end and it has the same crinkle part like you would find on a tube but you have no tube. You still get the great absorbancy and softness you would with Scott on top of being green!

Being a member of the #SimplyScottSquad I feel privilege that I am apart of something that is making a change for the better. Scott's has always had great quality toilet paper and I am pleased I don't have to sacrifice that to get be greener.

Sharing is caring!

Excited!

I am so excited to have the opportunity this upcoming weekend to see if my little passions I have will work out for the best. I got the opportunity to get a booth at a event show in my town. I will be making and selling my body scrubs, bath salt soaks, and crocheted items. I really do hope this works out because I would to be able to supplement our current income and one day make it a full blown business. I have many other great ideas I want to work on and sell as well. My husband will be doing wood work and building things from the bottom up all by hand. He is excited about that as well. So wish us luck!

What are you thankful for?

So all the time around Thanksgiving everyone starts to post what they are most thankful for. Some even do the challenge of posting everyday on the social net works. I on the other hand am just a little old fashion. I think one post is great and I normally don't do it on Thanksgiving. I mainly don't do it on Thanksgiving because I am so busy cooking, cleaning and taking care of the family. I don't do it the day before because that's when we do a lot of precooking. 

I decided I would go ahead and make my thankfulness post.

I am thankful for my little family I have and the goals we are seeing being met and started to be met. I have the greatest husband and most beautiful, smart little girls ever. We have our bad moments but they never put weight the good. I would never change a single thing I'm my little family. 

I am also thankful that my job provides more than enough that we both get to stay home and raise our kids and be a big part in their lives.

I am thankful for my extended family. My parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins are the best anyone could ask for. They love me no matter what and I love them.

I am thankful for my friends. I really do have some of the greatest friend ever. Always there if I need them and always willing to help. Old or new or doesn't matter I think of them all as a family member.

I'm thankful for the right to believe in whatever I want as an American, even though I get looked down upon, judged and talked about. I try my best to treat everyone the way I want to be treated, to show love, kindness and compassion.

Lastly I am thankful for myself. I have come a long way and I still have a ways to go. I'm learning to be comfortable in my skin and to love me for who I am. I am thankful that I can be sweet, loving, caring and helpful. However I am thankful I can stand up for myself and that sometimes mean being blunt.

All in all I am thankful for my life I live with the one I love. They all mean the most to me and I only wish I mean the same to them. 

What are you thankful for?
