4 Stars: SleepEZNOW- Natural Sleep Aid with Stress Relief. With GABA, Valerian and Melatonin ++ Non-Addictive Sleep Aid, No Side Effects. Made in the USA. 60 Capsules.

I have suffered from insomnia for years.  It started when I was in college taking a full load and working 3 jobs to pay tuition.  I survived on naps and never really got  full nights sleep.  If I had known that a habit from 15 years ago would haunt me today, I would have rethought messing up my sleep habits so much.  I've tried Ambien and Lunesta but hated the hallucinations, nightmares and hungover feeling I got from them.  About 2 years ago, I started taking Valerian and melatonin together and it has helped me immensely.  I fall asleep easily and sleep like a rock.  Although the combination works, Valerian has a distinctive smell that can be very off-putting.  It smells like the nastiest, smelly feet you can think of and that smell sticks to anything it touches.



I found Sleep EZ Now on amazon and was interested in the fact that it had several things known to help induce sleep all in one capsule.  Each capsule contains GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid), Valerian, Melatonin, Passion Flower and Lemon Balm.   Each of these things are found in nature and have been used for insomnia for centuries or are produced naturally in the body.  



These capsules worked exactly as expected, but without the nasty smell.  I took the capsules and was sleepy within 30 minutes of taking them.  The capsules smelled like ground up herbs, but didn't reek of stinky feet!  Since they are capsules, they are easy to swallow.  


I gave these 4 out of 5 stars because of the cost per bottle.  I can buy melatonin and valerian separately for a total of about $10.  One month's supply of these runs $19.99.  That isn't an outrageous price, but living on one income requires we save money where we can.  (As of today, they are on sale for $5.97 a bottle.  I've ordered 4 bottles because I don't know how long this price will last.)

I received this product at a discount for my honest opinion.

5 Stars: Boomile Solar String Lights 8 Modes 100LED 33ft Copper Wire Lights Waterproof Starry Fairy String Lights Ambiance Lighting for Outdoor Landscape Patio Garden Christmas Wedding (warm white)

I bought these lights to put in my yard so that there was light, but I didn't want extension cords across the yard.  These lights are about 30 feet long.  They are $10.99 on Amazon . The unlighted part of the power cord is about 80 inches long or almost 7 feet long.  This made is easy to run the lights up the tree trunk.   The lights have 8 different modes.  My favorite is the slow fade one.  Another nice feature is that the lights have a sensor to turn on when it gets dark and turn off when it gets light.  I don't have to go turn them on or off all the time.   These would also work great in the fairy light jars that are so popular right now and since they don't require being plugged in, the jar can sit anywhere there is ambient light to charge them. I received this product for free for my honest opinion.

I'm always looking for easy gift sets to give out at the last minute.  Like when I find out that tomorrow is a coworkers birthday and I forgot to get them a gift.  This shower gel and lotion set is perfect for that situation.  The set is $21.99 on amazon right now which is comparable to buying a set from Bath & Body. The set comes in a black organza bag so it is ready to give as a present.  Each bottle is 8 ounces. The shower gel is a nice thick consistency and has nice big bubbles.  It has a soft sweet scent that isn't overwhelming. The lotion has a smooth white texture and rubs in easily without an oily feeling.  It smells like flowers and grapefruit.  Like the gel, the scent is not overwhelming and very subtle. I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

5 Stars: Ovulation Test Strips and Pregnancy Test Kit - 50 LH and 20 HCG - OPK Ovulation Predictor Kit iProven FK-127

My husband and I have been trying to conceive (TTC) for over a year now.  This kit by iProven is a great "starter kit" for those trying to conceive.  Buying the tests at the store can start to get really expensive.  This kit is is $21.20 on Amazon right now.   This one has 50 ovulation prediction tests (OPKs) which can last a couple of months.  I usually use somewhere between 8 and 10 a month.  It also has 20 pregnancy tests which again should last a couple of month.  My usually on these is about 5 a month.   The pregnancy tests are blue dye tests which my doctor told me seem to be more accurate with less false positives than pink dye tests.  (This refers to the color of the dye that makes the lines on the test.)  It all also comes in a nice box to keep them organized.  Other brands I have bought came in envelopes of plastic bags. I have to say the best feature of this kit is the literature that is included.  One side of the literature talks about how the
