Blog: Take The Stress Out Of Housecleaning
Getting Ready for the Major Clean up
Well, all of the Holiday parties are over, the christmas presents are opened and put away and most of the cookies are gone--now starts the major clean up!
As we are putting away the Christmas decorations, we are finding stains on the carpets, marks on the tables and dirt ground into the carpeting that we know we will never get out.
We can just picture all of the cleaning we are going to have to do and are getting tired just thinking about it-right?
Do yourself a favor and as you are packing away those Christmas decorations, Fill a bottle with vinegar and water and whip down those vases, planters (don't forget the windows) and lamps. They will sparkle like crazy and brighten the room too!
Mix a solution of 1/4 cup baking soda, 1/4 cup vinegar to a gallon of water and wash over those deep marks in the carpeting and you will see a BIG difference.
Remember to always work Smarter-NOT Harder and those chores will be a lot easier to do and get done a lot faster!

Fun Things To Do
- Fishing Lake Michigan
Whether it is by boat or off the pier, there is nothing like getting that first Coho or King.
- Grandchildren are fun
Making memories for your grandchildren of all of the fun times they had with grandma and grandpa is one of the best memories you will make for yourself too.
- Camping
A tent, a firepit and sitting in the woods is a campers dream. We spend a lot of time camping in Northern Wisconsin and I have tons of camping recipes to share.
TV Shows
- American Idol
I am hooked on this show, nothing interrupts me when this is on. By the time they get to Hollywood, I already have the top ten picked out.
- Last Comic Standing
I love to see how these people, take the judges advice and change their tactics to become great comics, instead of just a comic.
- House
Now really, isn't he the kind of doctor you want on your side? He always has a reason for his actions, he looks until he finds the cure and he has flaws just like the rest of us.
- Any home make over show
I get some of my best ideas off of these shows and I also find things that I wouldn't dream of doing to someone elses home. I will admit, there are times that I wish they would call me and ask for my help!
