Spending Time with Family

22 April 2009

Almost three years ago, we moved across country from our immediate families.  So, it isn’t very often that we are able to spend time with our families.  We have been blessed to have spent the last week and a half has been visiting our families in Texas and Oklahoma.  We have truly enjoyed spending time with our parents and other family members.  The boys have delighted in the attention and love bestowed upon them by their grandparents!

There have been many hugs and kisses exchanged.  Many good-bye tears shed have been shed as well.  However, the sadness of parting is worth the short amount of time we are be able to see those that mean the most to us!

Using our vacation to drive cross-country to visit our family Works for Me!

Keeping Clean

25 March 2009

Have you ever been out and noticed that you had deodorant on your top from when you pulled it over your head to put it on? Or what about when your lunch gets away from you and lands in your lap? When I worked in the corporate world, my appearance was very important.  I certainly couldn’t walk around the office with remnants of breakfast stuck to my clothing or deodorant on my top.  And, since most of my career cloths were “dry clean only,” washing the spot in the washroom was out of the question.  But, I had secret stashed in my desk – and in my car – to handle such situations.  What was it???  Baby wipes!  They are great!  They work wonders on most “dry clean only” clothing and aren’t so wet as to drench your clothing so the spot dries off rather quickly.  The only problem that I have run across is that if the article of clothing is dark (like black which I wore alot), you have to be careful on how hard you rub as some of the white fibers can transfer from the baby wipes to your clothing leaving you with a fuzzy whitish spot.
