the dirty truth

please for give any miss spelling 4 kids ya know .... lol







So after doing cloth diapers for a 2 months I could smell a "funk" to my house. and I've tried everything plug ins, one of the Timed sprayers and then it happened. one of my kids got a hold of a refill(unopened thank god) to the sprayer, it never dawned on me what was in this. this stuff is fatal if swallowed ( can't fined a online label right now) but i thought about it how crazy is this your spraying toxic stuff in your home just to make it smell better.
I felt soo mad, i use nontoxic cleaning stuff even dish soap.
And I know mass market stuff can never be trusted and too read labels.
I always said before we got the damn thing having stuff sprayed in the air like that must not be good for you, and I was right. and yet I never looked.
this could of got on the kids cups, toys ,ninny's food.they could of breathed it in.
and on top of it I think this stuff may of killed my ferret who was healthy and only 3years old, and just dropped dead of his own a cored.

anyways I was looking for heather alternative and I found scentsy tarts in bars or bricks, warmers, tins and spray or hanging. warmers are plug ins so that's super plus for me and can also be use are a night light. all can be foud here.https://terrismethers.scentsy.us/Home


this is a full size



this is a mind size


here is a plug in


i may spend more money on this but is better then the other stuff.
here's other stuff on the dirty truth.


Why air fresheners stink
Obsession with cleanliness clouding the air and our judgment
Published November 13, 2008 by Adrienne Beattie in Going Green
Olivier Graham

Don’t worry about taking out the garbage, bathing your dog or throwing your sneakers in the wash — simply mask household odours with any number of toxic aerosol spray, candle, gel, potpourri and plug-in air freshening products. The global air freshener industry is a multibillion-dollar business sector.

Canadians spend 90 per cent of their time inside, and evidence suggests the use of common household air fresheners is causing more harm than good to indoor air quality. Neither the American nor Canadian government require manufacturers of these products to test them or meet any specific safety standards.

A study published this year in the journal Environmental Impact Assessment Review, found that top-selling air fresheners were releasing chemicals regulated as toxic or hazardous, but the chemicals were not being disclosed to consumers on the product labels.

Some of the chemicals commonly found in air fresheners include formaldehyde, ethanol, camphor, phenol, petroleum-based artificial fragrances and benzyl alcohol. These chemicals can cause a variety of symptoms including headaches, rashes, dizziness, migraines, asthma attacks, mental confusion, coughing and more.

A 2007 study conducted by the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology at the Municipal Institute of Medical Research in Barcelona, Spain found that using air fresheners increased the risk of developing asthma by an average of 30 to 50 per cent depending on the frequency of use. The study was published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.

In September 2007, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) released results from a study of 14 brands of popular household air fresheners finding that most contain chemicals that may affect hormones and reproductive development, particularly in babies and pregnant women. “More than anything, our research highlights cracks in our safety system,” said Dr. Gina Solomon, NRDC senior scientist in a recent press release.

The air freshener industry has grown by more than 50 per cent since 2003, and an estimated 75 per cent of households use air fresheners. Despite the size of the industry, it is totally unregulated.

“Consumers have a right to know what is put into air fresheners and other everyday products they bring into their homes,” Solomon argues. “There are too many products on the shelves that we assume are safe, but have never even been tested. The government should be keeping a watchful eye on these household items and the manufacturers who produce them.”

Twelve of the 14 brands tested contained the hormone-disrupting chemicals known as phthalates. Of these, one was marketed as “all-natural” and “unscented.” And none of them disclosed the ingredient on their labels. The chemicals pose the most risk with long-term repeat exposure.

Some Calgary stores, like Community Natural Foods, pre-screen products for harmful ingredients. Kim Ryrie, health and body care category manager, says the store has quality standards that products must meet before being put on its shelves. Phthalates are an unacceptable ingredient, and products containing these chemicals simply don’t make the cut. Ryrie recommends using pure essential oils with an aromatherapy diffuser or a ready-made air freshener like Orange Mate Mist, a non-aerosol product made with biodegradable citrus ingredients and without fluorocarbons, hydrocarbons or propellants.

Growing herbs indoors will keep your space smelling fresh, and some plants, such as aloe vera, chrysanthemum, spider plants, fig trees and English ivy not only add green to your indoor areas but also work to remove toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene and carbon monoxide.

The Organic Consumers Association recommends simmering cloves and cinnamon in water or putting out sachets of natural dried flowers if you’re looking to add an appealing smell to your home. The group also advises burning beeswax or soy candles with lead-free wicks as a greener, petroleum byproduct-free alternative to conventional candles.

The NRDC, meanwhile, suggests people try to reduce home odours by addressing the root cause of the offending smell and improving ventilation by opening windows.

“There are plenty of good alternatives,” writes Dr. Solomon. “The best way to avoid the problem is to simply open a window instead of reaching for one of these cans.”

Little Bee Creations WAHM diaper


(note this is not the diaper I bought but a stock photo of hers)
I bought a diaper form her 2 months ago and this fluffy has seen better days due to our hard water. oh it still works, I use it as a night diaper.
these diapers are more on the night diapers side any ways.
they are on the thick side but can hold a super 3 mega bomb with no leaking.
I do love them but in the end they just where not for us.
they would work fantastic for someone with softer water. All in one Custom Diaper is $10.00 (note there is a extra charge for XL size)

This WAHM also makes

Hiney Lineys Diaper Cover


I just got this diaper in the mail so love it already this is the perfect diaper for the mom on the go.
after the diaper is dirty just undo the liner and take out the insert and, replace with clean liner and insert. because your only carrying liners which come in set of 3 and inserts used space in your diaper bag or purse is almost nothing compared to lugging 3 full fluffy's with you.
this would be the perfect diaper for vacationer who wants to still CD there babies I could imagine cleaning them in a sink with soap nuts and hanging them in the bath room.

Although in the youtube clip the diaper has touch tape there is also a chic hippy snap op and come in S,M, and L . and I did happen to say how super a fordable they are at only $7 bucks a pop and liner in a set of 3 are $10 there is( no extra charge for size) buck you can't beat that. you can fined this diaper @ http://hyenacart.com/HineyLineys/index.php?viewall=1
