2015 Reading Challenge - CATCH UP, part two

Two books I've recently read....

Mind of a Molester, by Kenneth Quinn

 
 
This book is written by a friend of mine. It is presented in a very informative and interesting way. It showcases and highlights a raw and open account of addiction and healing. He shares the story of his past and how he worked through it...and beyond it.
 
 
Why I Married a Murderer and How I Survived the Divorce, by Teresa Roberts.
 

 
You know... sometimes you just end up with a book in your collection...with no rhyme or reason for it being there. So you read it. That's what happened...and that's what I did.  Not impressed. This book was basically a run down of the ups and downs of dating and all the bad relationships this lady ended up in.......almost a "poor pitiful me" type thing. 


UPDATE: Pinterest Project - Homemade Laundry Soap

So... I left off with a full bucket of homemade laundry soap - with plans to return here in May with an update as to how well it's done on cleaning my clothes....and how long it lasted.

 
 
This was taken this morning. I'm to the bottom of the bucket --- with maybe enough detergent for 10-12 more loads. I'm impressed.... and I'd say this is a money saving venture. I spent $28 in January....and haven't purchased laundry soap since. As far as cleaning my clothes --- I've not had any problems. They're clean, they smell nice....so I think in the next few weeks I'll be gathering the supplies to make another batch ----We'll see if the second batch will last me the remainder of the year!
