This post is sponsored by Swiffer. The dogs and their messy paws are all mine. Know what's awesome? When your house is at the cleanest it can be on Thursday evening. This is especially awesome when you have a party scheduled for the weekend. Know what's not awesome? When it rains from Thursday evening until party time, and the family …

What I Learned at the Febreze Safety Immersion
Thanks to Febreze for sending me to this event and sponsoring this post. Y’all know my thoughts on smells/scents. I’m generally not a fan of breathing in anything other than air. But since being a member of the Cleaning Collective for P&G, which includes Febreze products, I’ve had a lot more scent in my home than I had before. This is …
Spring Cleaning/Decluttering – Dust Covered Clutter? Or Clutter Covered Dust?
I decided to use a recent burst of spring cleaning energy to tackle a problem area in my master bedroom. Sometimes “spring cleaning energy” is best used on a decluttering project I’ve been avoiding. I’d had the great (<-sarcasm) idea to put a table in the corner, next to my side of the bed. My super-logical reasoning was something about needing …
Spring Cleaning Tips Using Great Products from P&G and Walgreens!
Thanks to Proctor & Gamble and Walgreens for sponsoring this post! Spring weather (when it actually arrives) gives me the itch to clean things I’ve successfully ignored over the winter months. Suddenly, messes that were small annoyances become crazy obvious and scream out to be CLEANED! Walgreens and P&G are partnering to offer …
Facing Modern Laundry Challenges: Tide vs. Washing with Baking Soda and Vinegar
This blog post was created in partnership with Tide. Y’all know that cleaning doesn’t come naturally to me. I’m constantly searching for the very best way to clean everything, including clothes. When I heard that adding something I have in my pantry, like vinegar, to bargain detergent makes it clean clothes better, I was ready to try it. …
Storage at Its Very Finest (and my Swiffer Immersion trip for this year!)
This post is brought to you by Swiffer. It's about Swiffer and about some deep thoughts I've had lately regarding storage. But, other than the fact that a Swiffer duster is great for getting in all sorts of random places (could be storage places) and actually trapping the dust, storage and Swiffer don't seem to go together. Bear with me as I …
Saving My Towels from the Stink – EnviroKlenz Laundry Enhancer Liquid Review
Disclosure: This review was requested by EnviroKlenz and they have paid me for my time spent creating this post. All opinions and experiences and not-so-fresh-smelling towels and stinky teenagers, however, are mine. I'm also using an affiliate link to their product. Should I be offended that a company who prides themselves on helping people …
Blue Apron Meal Service – Bridging the Gap Between Idealism and Real Life #ad
This post is sponsored by Blue Apron, but the opinions and thoughts and crazy life circumstances are mine. Two weeks before school started, we received a Blue Apron box. I ordered it for that week, thinking it would be the least crazy for us, right before meet the teacher nights and sports practices began. Life didn't follow my detailed …
Observing World Oceans Day as a Landlubber! #dawnhelpssavewildlife
Did you know that today, June 8th, is World Oceans Day? I'm happy to serve as a Dawn Wildlife Ambassador since I'm already a fan of using Dawn to clean way more than dishes in my own home. I also love Dawn's commitment to working with wildlife rescue organizations. This relationship began after bird rescuers determined that Dawn was by far …
