Tuck A Little Fragrance in Your Drawers

Take your favorite perfume and spray a couple of cotton balls and then place in your undies drawer. Every time you open the drawer, you will be greeted by a gorgeous scent and we all know how perfume always makes you feel better! Especially on a dull day! That’s what I did yesterday and it actually did make up for a cold dull day. Hey, it’s June!! Isn’t this supposed to be a nice hot summer??

Nearing My Goal

I’ve been watering the garden all afternoon… I had no idea that the garden was that big, but I have accumulated a lot of steps. I will get to the 10,000 step mark by dinner easily!

Fantasia Tobacco Blossom

I’m really curious about this soap and the scent in particular. The flower of the tobacco plant is used. Have no idea what that would smell like, but I’m really curious. Any ideas??

The Rubber Vase

Now this is kind of cool. Certainly wouldn’t have to worry about storing it. Where ever there is a spot… you can make it fit.

What I’m Thinking About Right Now

Is spring ever going to arrive. I no sooner get the driveway shoveled and we get more snow. And if the snow melts quickly it refreezes into an ice rink. Try shoveling snow on that!! Not in a good mood right now.

Looking for the Positives.

This isn’t going to hurt a bit. Just one little question…

What was the best thing about today?

Kids Cleaning Their Rooms…

I don’t think that there is a kid alive who likes to clean their room. I know that I didn’t when I was a kid… no make that a teen. Didn’t like doing it then either. So, grab a timer for 5 minutes and tell the kids that they can stop cleaning when the timer goes off. They think that they are getting off lucky, but you will be amazed at how cleaning can be done in five minutes. It doesn’t sound like a lot of time, but I have put it to the test myself. YOU CAN GET A LOT ACCOMPLISHED IN 5 MINUTES.  Now get into the habit of doing it every day and you will have one amazing looking house (or a clean kid’s room) in a week or less.

Do You Have a Spiral Staircase??

Don’t choose a home with a spiral staircase in the centre of the house. We did just that and have had nothing but bad luck with the house. It’s a Feng Shui thing from what I’ve been reading. Didn’t quite understand it but it said something to the effect of boring through the heart of the home.

 

And it doesn’t help when you are trying to sell your house either!

The Secret to a Happy Kitchen

… is to have someone else do the cooking and cleaning up afterward. I guess that’s why I love to eat out so much. I don’t care what anyone says… I would never get bored with eating out.
