Cleaning my house

Cleaning my house with vinegar and water has been a big help this month. It started with a class project but ended up being something that has been in craved in me now. It has also been a money saver because now I don’t have to buy four  products to get my house clean. Just with one product I can clean most of my house with only one bottle. One bottle can save me almost $15 dollars and that money is well welcomed right now in these time of need. It was fun doing a YouTube video about my project and to be able to show others how I was able to clean without using many products. So this only didn’t  get me a good grade for one class but it also helped me for another one of my class project. Cleaning with one bottle can also help out with my children’s health and the environment. I hope that everyone can watch my video and learn from it and not too much at me. Well, getting this video out  their was scary and weired to think that others can see me.

Finals Time

As it becomes closer to the end of another quarter the stress starts to build up as well. With all the work to be turn in and with children and life to worry about you just can’t find the time in a day to get every thing done. Especial this week when your baby-sitter is out of town and you need them more than ever, but I am so happy that they got to get away. I just want to get thru this last few days and get that feeling when you have finally got thru another of your classes. Being able to check off the class and see that you are just that much closer of reaching your goal is what makes you push your self. Well I just want to get it done and enjoy my few weeks of break to be able to return and start all over again with the next quarter. Keeping organized and writting everything I need to get done on a list helps me see and have it written down so that I know I wouldn’t forget. When I get things done I can mark them off and see just how much I have gotten done with. Well, I hope that all this work gets me to reach my goals and gets me good grades that I want.=)

Jenny’s Story Time

Hi I have been working on my Story Time for a while now and today I am happily able to say that I have finally finish it! It was very hard at first to think that I would be able to get it done but once I started to play with the idea it became very excited to think of the endless options out their. Yes, I did it just because it was part of my school work, but it was still fun to get it done and to learn all about the fun world of pod-cast. This is a tool that could be used with plenty of ways to help out and to bring families together. Just to know that now if I am not around for my children they could go back and hear me read to them one of their favorite books (which all three enjoy) and still hear my voice. Hearing my voice played back was weired at first but I had to hear it play back so many times that I just got used to hearing it and I think that I will do this again with other books. It would be interesting to see what my kids could come up with if they get an chance to create their own pod-cast. I think I just got a new activity to do as a family.

Frida Kahlo

Hi just wanted to share with everyone a biography a saw on television that have me great pride to know that she is also Hispanic like me. When I was growing up she really got my attention because of her courage to be herself. It’s Frida Kahlo a woman that was well beyond her period because she was able to stand up for herself as a women when most women where looked down. She was a great fighter for women rights and was not afraid to speak up no matter who it was. Frida had to over come many accidents in her life as when she was only six years and had a poliomyelitis which caused her to have her right leg with a slight limp. Then in  1926 Frida had a terrible accident when going to school which broke her spine in three parts and caused her to stay in bed many months but the worst was that this caused her reproductive organs to be damaged. In 1927 she met Diego Rivera while he was working on ‘La Creacion’ and she shown him her work and he was interested in her work. They started to spend time together and with in two years they were married. Diego and Frida went to the United States where he was hired to paint and she was able to meet many important people and continued her for in New York. She tried to get pregnant but was not able to and many of those pregnancy almost caused her life. She went into many depression and painting was the only way to get her thru it all. Frida was getting know for her self portrait because for the time period it was not normal for anyone to draw them self and especially the anatomy of the person. Frida’s painting was her way to express herself and let out all the frustration she had with life and with Diego. She was becoming know in the artist circle because of her painting which were not in norm of the time with showing with great detail the way she was hurting inside as with the painting when she was having an abortion because her child had died inside of her and this almost killed her not just physically but also emotionally.  Frida Kahlo is a Mexican woman which everyone should be aware of because of her great talent and her bravery to overcome all the obstacles in life.
