• It’s almost HALLOWEEN!!!

    Is it too soon to start decorating for Halloween?  I don’t think so…. I LOVE Halloween!! The last couple (Have you ever had brain fart where you couldn’t spell a word?? Seriously!! I just couldn’t remember how to spell COUPLE and I mangled it so bad SPELL check couldn’t find it?!?! WHAT?!?! I need more coffee!) Okay where was I? Couple… ya… The last couple of years I didn’t get into Halloween like I use too. The grandkids were too young and it would probably traumatize them. Not NOW!!!

  • Dizolve Ultra Laundry Strips Giveaway and Review!

    Laundry detergent sheets

    My least favorite chore is laundry. ACCKKK!! I dislike everything about it!! Our laundry area is in the garage, where it’s either sweltering hot or freezing cold. AND it’s a garage! It smells like boys!! So, the shortest amount of time I spend out there the better!! Meaning I don’t want to hunt for stains and pre-treat. I just want to be done as quickly as possible. Now all that said and done. I demand clean clothes. I want fresh smelling clothes. I want clothes without stains! I have to admit I was really skeptical about this new product (new to me that is!) called Dizolve. I’ve been using it for the last 3 weeks. I’m not only amazed, I’m giddy!! I have not pretreated anything. I haven’t put any additives in my washer at all.  One thin little strip of Dizolve thoroughly and completely cleans EVERYTHING I wash. EVERYTHING!!! 100% CLEAN!! Dizolve packs ultra-concentrated cleaning power into a tiny, pre-measured strip of detergent that you just toss in the wash. Check out how thin this box of laundry detergent strips is!! 72 LOADS in this little box!! Loaded with safe, ultra-concentrated cleaning power. This is an amazing AMAZING product!!…
