Pinterest #37 Maxi Skirt with Ruffles on Bottom

Picture of link

The one I made isn't nearly as cute as this one (pictures to come). As a matter of fact my husband doesn't like it and says its "cheesy"  hahaha!!
But for a lounge around the house skirt it works. Might try again making the skirt fuller and the ruffle not so rufflely. 

Pinterest #36 Stain Remover


I had a wonderful "fail" moment with this one. There are a couple of posts of this recipe floating around out there. Basically it is just hydrogen peroxide and dish soap but I found one that added baking soda to the mix. DON'T DO IT!!
All that did was build up pressure in the bottle and make it explode. What a fun time we had with that! 
Once we cleaned up that mess I tried it again. Leaving the baking soda out. It works very well. There are some stains that need to be treated multiple times but I have noticed it gets the out a lot faster and better then any stain treatment I have bought before. 
This will now be a staple in our house.

I LOVE this saying!  I thought it would be great for the girls to see on a daily basis. So I made my own version out of vinyl for their bathroom. (Picture to come)
Just a wonderful piece of uplifting inspiration for yourself! 

Getting healthy week 22

Weight: down 9 pounds
Exercise: yeah right!
Calorie count: higher and higher

Can you tell I have fallen of the wagon yet?  I keep trying to get going again but it's just not happening. 
I am mad that I am seeing numbers again that I never wanted to see again. Today I was going to get up before the kids and get going. Yup. Sitting on my fat but in front of tv and its already 8:30am. Not moving. 
I will get there. I will get back on track. I hope.
