We redid our kitchen 4 years ago and have had the cabinets from our old kitchen sitting in our garage ever since.  I finally got tired of them sitting there and put them on Craig’s List yesterday.  I got 10 emails in less than an hour and I now have a check in my hand!  I even got what I was asking for them.  They didn’t even haggle the price.  I posted the listing exactly 24 hours ago.  I am SO HAPPY! Now we can use the money to fix up our next project to sell.

Recently, I was given the opportunity to participate in the Mr Clean Magic Eraser Challenge.  The company sent me 2 tiles, marker, and a wooden spoon, a set of magic erasers, and a competitor’s cleaner.  Ok, so I am no so bright so I put the marker on both the tile and the wooden spoon.  The magic eraser took care of the marker on the tile and made a good effort on the raw wooden spoon.  Not sure I was supposed to use the spoon that way but I did   The other cleaner worked ok but reeked of …read more

Today’s Thursday Cleaning Challenge will help you tackle that bathroom.  I just got through cleaning out my bathroom drawers.  I had no idea what kind of half used or awful products that were still in there.  So I took a few minutes while the kids were playing in the bathtub to clean out the drawers.  If you haven’t used it in the last few months, toss it.  Don’t think about it.  Use the rule “touch it once”.  If you haven’t used it in a few months, toss it and don’t put it back.  Good luck.

If you are feeling froggy today, get out and clean 3 windows.  See I am not asking for much.  Just pick the 3 most seen windows and clean them.  There is nothing worse than looking out a dirty window.  Remember, vinegar and a newspaper are the best things to use when cleaning a window.  I hope you are having a great Thursday.

No parent I know likes to admit it, but the toys in our homes are asexual!  Stop laughing at me.  You know it is true.  I am looking at my toys and am realizing that I am going to have to sort them again before we bring in new toys from Christmas.  This time, I am going to let the DH do it.  No I am not being lazy.  But I can look at the toys and see where each one is played with every once in a while.  My DH, however, looks at them a little more objectively.  So …read more

Today’s Thursday Cleaning challenge is only because I went to check my washing machine when it was rocking during the rinse cycle.  I went in to check it and rearrange the load.  When I did, …

I love a bleached sink.  I love the idea of a clean sink.  I admit I have a sink fettish!  My entire house can be a mess (and usually is) but my kitchen sink has to be clean.  This Thursday Cleaning challenge is uber easy.  Just fill your kitchen sink with hot water and a cup of bleach and walk away.  Don’t even think about it for 10 minutes.  Then just drain and rinse.  Uber Easy.

Today’s Thursday Cleaning Challenge is to clean out your kids’ car seats and high chairs.  Take the covers off and clean the hardware.  Don’t just wipe them down.  Take the material off as far as you can and wash what you can.  Then put them back together and realise that you wouldn’t want to sit in food and yuck.  They shouldn’t have to either.

Today’s Thursday Cleaning Challenge is to clean out the pipes in your washing machine.  This won’t take but about 5 minutes.  Get the owner’s manual that I know you have out every day and find out how to dismantle the inflow and outflow valves and clean out every connection and tube that carries water in and out of your washing machine.  You would be surprised how much junk gets trapped in those tubes.  Here is a trick to this …  Please read.
