I Rock !

Apparently, I rock!

Kirsten nominated me (me!) for a Rockin' Girl Blogger Award. I feel like I should stand up and give a big pageant-wave to everyone. Instead, though, I think I'll just say "Thank you. Thank you very much" in my best/worst Elvis impersonation and nominate five more rockin' girls.

Only five? This is a hard one. Let's see:

Sarah - This girl is the ultimate thrift finder.

Amanda Jean - She is an amazing quilter.

Beki - She works full-time and has three children and is a wonderful seamstress. She can do it all and makes it all look easy.

Jessica - Oh my, Jessica. If you want a good laugh, this is the blog to read. Get your tissues ready. She is hilarious.

Laura - Laura is another one. She is hysterical. Over-the-top hysterical. She's also the nicest person ever. Ever.

I would also nominate Karyn, but she's vacationing and isn't reading blogs this week. But she's a great gal. She sews, geocaches (and is usually a good sport about it), she's very generous and kind, and she cracks me up.

If you don't know these Rockin' Girl Bloggers, go check them out.

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.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
