Hi everyone! I know its been awhile...I apologize..but my head is still not in the right frame of mind yet. I'm giving myself the rest of this week and then gonna smack myself into gear. Its all just been tough and so I've been just letting myself have the time to grieve, cry, laugh, read and catch up on household stuff. I have a few posts I started typing up but couldn't finish because I was boo-hooing while typing...LOL...yup I really was. So I will save those for next week when I think I can get them out of my head and onto the 'puter.

Today I just have a fun little post and item that I wanted to share because I love it sooooo much! My mom got me my first one last year after complaining about cleaning my awesome Dutch Oven pot. I usually use baking soda paste and a cloth but it wasn't getting everything off.
So she sent me this lil' cutie---
And it is GENIUS! Have you tried it out yet? Well we went from a family of 1 Scrub Daddy to a family of 8 hahahaha! (I wish they came in different colors though...I should suggest that huh?) I keep two in the kitchen, one in each bathroom and James has one in the garage for outside use. It works on all kinds of things and really gets the yuckies off of everything. And they are safe to use on so many household & outside objects.
Now the reason it has a smiley face...other than being cute, duh...is so you can insert objects and clean them on both sides really well. For example you can run it over your sink faucets, sticky spoons, greasy tools, etc. You can also stick your fingers thru the holes to protect your manicure or to get a better grip...so cool right? It also fits in small jars and such as well to really get them clean. I also use one to clean off my produce...gets them clean quickly w/o damaging the veggies/fruits. I keep the pot scrubber & fruit/produce ones in different places so I don't get confused...hence why I want different colored ones LOL.
They run about $5 and I've seen them everywhere from Home Depot, Target, Walmart to my local grocery store. But you can order them online as well.
I just love them and for $5 its like a mini-cleaning miracle and who doesn't like those??
Sorry you are feeling so rough. I can emphasize. I went through this with my boys leaving home many years ago. It does get easier, but you will always be so happy to see them come home, whether for a day or longer. Take this time for you, everyone reacts differently but that is OK. You are an excellent mom with a very close family, otherwise it wouldn't hurt. Love and prayers for comfort sent.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Edie! Every day it gets a little better but then something silly will set me off...hard to be in a house with just boys too. One hour at a time....
DeleteGuess what ? Scrub Daddy sponges DO come in different colors now. Check out QVC. I just got mine day before yesterday.
