Revisiting My Nemesis

A few months went by. B slimmed down, grew up a bit, and I meanwhile got sucked (willingly) into the world of Norwex and their chemical free home cleaning products. It really made me want to be more conscientious about what I was exposing my family to at home, where I was in control of that. I loved the stuff so much, I decided to start selling it. And as I researched more to help me better sell my products, the ignorance about chemicals, and just unnecessary exposure in general was backing into a corner whether I wanted it to or not.
So when I was at a playdate with two other Norwex mommies and one asked me if I cloth diapered, I admittedly was feeling guilty for having given up so easily. I mean, I hadn't even experienced a poopy cloth diaper yet!! I hate to admit it, but I sort of ambiguously told her that I used the gDiapers, and tried to melt out of the conversation. A few days later, she emailed me and told me that she had a couple of the gDiapers she had found at her house, and asked if I wanted to have them since she never really used them. Well, who ever says no to (nice) free stuff? I sure don't. And I took it as a sign that I needed to give this one more shot. So here I was, 2 gDiaper shells and a pile of gCloth. It was ON.

And just like that, without really committing to doing it, I switched to cloth exclusively during the day. That's 42 less disposable diapers EVERY WEEK than I had been using. That's $22 a week I was saving.
