Fighting the February Funk


There's been a lot of talk about fighting the "February Funk." Although February doesn't really affect me a whole lot, I thought I'd try to play along this week and post photos of how we are keeping busy.

We have nearly a house-full of sick children, so things are moving slowly. So, today is "movie morning." The kids are watching a movie (which we don't normally do in the mornings) and I think there will be some popcorn soon.

Oh, and what is the movie today? King Kong. Mason chose it. I'm not sure if Spenser will enjoy it. (She just joined us.) At least it gives us a break from Strawberry Shortcake.


Update: We are now watching Baby's Day Out. Thank goodness! King Kong is outta there! It didn't last long. Well ... it lasted long enough!

Feel better, little ones. Stay cozy. Ask for grilled cheese. That always helps. And juice.

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

Before ... a $10 thrifted chair ... After ... 1 1/2 cans of spray paint and a little cotton batting and fabric and a staple gun later ... I used Alexander Henry's Sunny Side fabric for the seat. I love the contrast of the red, black and white. Can you say oh yeah ??
