Tackle It Tuesday 2 Comments

Well, it’s not all re-washed yet, but I did do several loads today, and at least it’s in the wash are and not only the sofa. I should really celebrate by going to sit on it, LOL!

Getting it Done 2 Comments

A while back, i told you all that I use dish soap in my washing machine, because it is cheap and effective. I just wanted to note that I still stand by that for top-loaders, but if you have a front loader, go with the HE stuff. I’d been using the dish soap after I got my new machine, but I borrowed a bit of the HE stuff from my mom yesterday, and the difference in the way the clothes feel is so extreme that I am rewashing the laundry that’s piled on the couch before we put it away. Yeah, I’m doing extra laundry. It’s just that good.

Hmm, that sounds like a good idea for Tackle it Tuesday, doesn’t it? I just snapped a before shot, and I’ll post it along with the after later this evening.

Too Cute By Half

Having Fun No Comments

I’ve had a total of five baby showers between my 8 children, and I enjoyed each and everyone of them. I’ve attended my fair share for other moms, too, but I think they decorations i saw today at PartyPail are among the cutest I’ve ever seen. These guys carry complete lines of party goods from baby shower tableware to matching decorations.

Just look at these Princess Baby Shower Decorations! Diva has a birthday coming up next month, and these would be perfect for her party. She’s going to be 12, but you are never to old to be a princess! Come to think of it, my birthday is coming up pretty soon, too. I’ll be 40, and I’m absolutely certain I’d rather have the princess set than the “over the hill” set someone is bound to think is funny.
