An Annual Chore

I know that you are all so -o jealous of my glamorous life. [cough, cough] Just look at who I’m dancing with today: Isn’t he cute? He and I will be cutting cleaning a rug today. May you find joy in the simple chores of life. Take care!

What’s Under Your Couch?

Today we cleaned under the couch. And yes it was a big enough deal that I need to write about it. For me it was like – eww yuck. For the kids it was like – oh wow what treasure! They found several things they thought were lost forever. They also found at least 5 pens. [...]

Smelly Towel Cleaner Giveaway

Do you remember when I hosted the Smelly Washer Cleaner giveaway? I said that I liked to use it to help my towels more than my washer.  Well, now the same company has a product called Smelly Towel Cleaner that is made just for the towels and other stinky fabrics.  I say other fabrics because [...]

CLR Tackle It Tuesday

I received a mysterious box in the mail.  What is it?  The reply, “I don’t know.  It has your name on it.” It was a bottle of CLR. And this is the first thing I did with it. I even read the directions first.  Put my gloves on, sprayed and let it soak. For the [...]

Finally Vacuumed The Truck

So, what is it about blogging that makes people tell the whole world weird things? And even more importantly, why do other people read it?
