I’ll come out and say it: I am a terrible housewife. I HATE cleaning. I am bad at it. I don’t sleep well so I am tired and worn out and so on. But, I have made it a priority to get the house clean and keep it clean. I decided to take every cleaning task I could think of and divide them into daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly lists and just GET THEM DONE.
I recently did a major purge on our bath toys. I got rid of a lot of the ones that were baby toys and I got rid of nearly every single squirter toy since I found mold in one of them (GROSS). The two I did keep, I cleaned profusely and dried and then sealed the squirty hole with super glue.
Dude. I don't use our oven that much, especially in the summer (since it gets so stinking hot here in South Texas!). But, I do like to bake, and one of things I hate doing the most is getting the cooking sheets out of the oven. I burned myself once and I think I'm still afraid of doing it again! This week's Wishlist Wednesday would really go a long way in preventing that problem. Check it out:
Here in Texas, we don’t have school “quarters” like I did growing up in the midwest. We divide the school year into 6 sets of 6 weeks. Well, right before Christmas was the end of the third set of six weeks. Since our little guy joined school late- in early December- he only had about 10 days before his first report card.
Happy Monday! I hope y'all had a good weekend. I got a lot done here around the house despite me being really sick. I accidentally inhaled a mouthful of dust and junk the other day and am having major allergy attacks. Ugh! So anyway, it's Monday and that means it's Quickie Question time, where I ask y'all a question to get y'all talking in the comments. This week's question:
Man, more sadness here. My parents dog, that we've had for 13 years, passed away today. I am absolutely gutted. Gutted.
Last week was kind of a tough week. We took Crunch Berries back to the vet for her followup appointment for her bladder infection and the vet was finally able to do an ultrasound. She found three tumors. Two are small, but right on her lymph nodes. One is really big, getting bigger, and is in her abdomen. She told us that she wouldn't make it through the year.
Fog, particularly when dense, can be hazardous to drivers, mariners and aviators. Fog contributes to numerous travel accidents every year. Restrictions in visibility resulting from fog can also impact takeoff and landing procedures and requirements for pilots, and can be the cause of weather-related aviation delays. Thank you to the National Weather Service for making this information available to the public.
Woot woot, it's Wednesday! We're halfway through the week. That means it's Wishlist Wednesday time! Froot Loop has early dismissal today (it's only 15 minutes, but that's because he only goes for a half day anyway) because the school district is hosting an academic competition.
Anyway, I've been trying to get my house organized. I've been looking for gadgets and doodads to get my stuff together. I found this awesome spice rack and I really think I just have to have it.
Happy Monday! It's that time of the week where I ask y'all a super duper important question to get y'all talking in the comments. This week's question:
