Life Between Loads of Laundry
This week, I did something that made me shiver as I anticipated the horror that would await me as a result of my actions. I’m the kind of gal that completely rinses off all of my dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. It was how I learned to use the dishwasher, and that’s just what I always do. But, not one day this week, my friends. You see, I was contacted by Finish to take the Finish Rise and {Read More}
The irony is not lost on me that I am going to share a post on keeping up with your laundry when I just admitted that I had washed the same load of laundry three times before it finally hit the dryer. Still, I’m going to carry on and share this list of tips anyway because I think they’re good tips. I just don’t always manage to follow them. 10 Tips for Keeping up with Your Laundry 1. Set aside {Read More}
Thank you to P&G and Kroger stores for celebrating “Team Mom’s Everyday Victories”! Please visit the P&G’s event page to play games, win money off your next Kroger trip and more fun! —– Last week, I decided to make another one of my crazy long “to do” lists. When I do this, I usually write out a whole spiral notebook page of things and then work my way through them over the course of anywhere from a few days to {Read More}
I know it was just yesterday when I was sharing information about my relaunched eBook, Finding Educational Activities in the Most Unexpected Places (and it’s on the Kindle too). So, it may seem crazy, but I’m going to tell you about my new eBook today! I don’t know if you’re like me at all, but there’s a reason that I say I’m domestically challenged. And it’s, well, because I’m domestically challenged in a serious way. God bless my dear, sweet {Read More}
I was blessed to never have had to do the laundry growing up. My Mom took care of everyone’s laundry, although I’m not really sure how she stayed caught up with so many people in the house. In fact, I don’t even remember putting clothes away, so I imagine that means she did that too. This meant, however, that as I was 19 and gearing up for my wedding and moving out of my parents’ house, I also needed a {Read More}
I just had to pass along this fabulous deal running through the end of the month, which just happens to end tomorrow, of course. The new ebook from “Nony” from A Slob Comes Clean, 28 Days to Hope for Your Home, which is already on sale for $4 for February is on sale for two days (but one of those was today) for just $2.00. (I have the coupon code listed below.) I haven’t shared, but I’m trying to make {Read More}
I have always been the kind of person that bought commercial cleaning products. If it promised quicker or easier cleaning, I was going to check it out the next time I went to the store (and maybe even buy it). Because of this, the area under my kitchen sink is packed with all sorts of nasty chemicals, all in brightly colored containers whose purpose is to entice me to buy them. Go read about what made me change my ways {Read More}
I’m super excited to share about the steam mop that I have recently been able to try out – The Steam-It by Oreck! And, not only am I excited to share about our experiences with the Steam-It, but I’m thrilled that one of you will be able to win your very own Steam-It Steam Mop too! This steam mop is so cool and versatile. The Steam-It comes with six different attachments making it not just a mop, but a tool {Read More}
I have tried many systems (too many!) for housekeeping. From ones that made me put on shoes in the morning to ones with lots of check boxes, from special apps for my iPhone to free downloads from sites — you name it, I may have tried it. Each would go fine for a while, and then I’d fall off the wagon. I couldn’t understand why I was always failing. Then, I finally figured out that I couldn’t use a schedule {Read More}
I was very pleased recently to get a chance to try out the Dish Drying Mats from Garden Botanika. Well, hang on. That’s not exactly true. Actually – I was going to try them out, but I kind of thought, “I’m not exactly sure what I’m going to do with these, since I don’t even use a dish drying rack.” Imagine my surprise when I found so many different ways that I was using my mats! With double sided microfiber {Read More}
