Year 3 Day 86 – “Living the Dream”. Thursday, 7/27/2023. It was a down workday today. The day was filled with errands and homesite clean up. I picked more fresh green beans and a cucumber from the garden for dinner. The seeds that grew these vegetables are nine years old from our garden in New Jersey. We dried our seeds from our garden vegetables and saved them in 2014. It is amazing they grew so well here in Kentucky in this dust bowl dirt. The soil is so different from the rich dark NJ soil.
I am looking at window prices for Clifty Hill 2. The windows we purchased for the Williamsburg house a little over two years ago are about $140.00 more for each one today. Prices are crazy!!! It is super-hot today, 90 in the sun. Two years ago, it was 95 in the shade. This is a hot time of the year. https://deestimes.com/2021/07/28/living-the-dream-day-88/
Check out this bear swimming in Lake Cumberland. We haven’t seen any bears around our house at all.
I’ll leave you with a few different things to ponder this evening.
Today’s product recommendations are for keeping your skin looking its best at sea and in the sun. My favorite skin care products are made by Elemis. Although I do sometimes try a new product here and there. I actually find myself going back to Elemis. 1) I start my morning in the shower with a face wash. Currently I am using ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Wash https://amzn.to/3qZkwqC 2) After showering I am currently using ELEMIS Superfood Facial Oil https://amzn.to/3XvfUVu 3) Then the Elemis Pro-Collagen Maine Cream with spf30 gets applied. It is the best. It costs a little more than the drug store creams but wow it works. Whenever I decide I want to buy another less expensive brand I am sorry and head right back to this cream. https://amzn.to/46sJZsH 4) Steve also uses an Elemis product. He tends to break out when he uses sunscreen often. He finds the ELEMIS Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads excellent to use. It cleans that sunscreen out of his pores. When he uses these pads to cleanse his face he does not break out. https://amzn.to/3px1oQn
