Well we are in the middle of another beautiful weekend. The sun is shining and the temperatures are extremely hot. Unfortunately though my husband is working so we really can’t do too much with the children today. But they are playing outside so at least their not stuck in the house during the weekend. My husband is supposed to be off next weekend so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we get another weekend like this one. But since it’s so nice out, I’m now going to shut down my computer and go outside and enjoy the day with the children.

Well today is a bittersweet day for me.

Six years ago today my father passed away from lung cancer. He was only 62. I miss him every day but on the anniversary of his death I miss him even more. Well nine years ago today my husband and I were married. That’s right, my father died on our anniversary.

So this is why this day is so bittersweet. On one hand I’m sad because this day brings back bad memories of my father’s death. But I’m also happy because today is also the anniversary of my husband and I’s wedding.

Well my computer is still acting up, but not as bad as before so I keep chugging along. I do a lot of work from home on my computer and all of these computer troubles really are starting to get on my nerves. After a couple of months of consideration, I have decided that I’m really going to have to purchase a new one. But with so much money going out these days for school, birthdays, weddings and anniversaries, I really don’t have the extra cash right now. So for now I guess I’ll just have to keep doing what I’m doing and start saving my pennies.

Man… I can’t wait to come in here and post that I’ve got a new computer and all my computer troubles are over.

Well I’ve been having computer troubles once again and that’s why I haven’t been online very much these days. This morning it took me over an hour to get on the Internet and to tell you all that my frustration level had hit the roof is a serious understatement. Honestly I don’t know what I’m going to do. I think in the end I’ll probably have to purchase a new one, but I’m not looking forward to that expense. But I honestly can’t continue on this way. I’ll have to make a decision soon otherwise I think my sanity will be a thing of the past.

Friday was the children’s last day of school. They both brought their report cards home and to tell you all that I was highly impressed is a mild understatement. My son passed grade 4 and was even able to bring up some of his marks from last term. My daughter passed grade 6 and actually earned a couple of awards. She was given a medallion for commendable effort and she received honors. So now they are both home for their summer vacation and are planning on enjoying a well deserved vacation after a job well done this past year at school.

It’s only Monday and it’s already turned out to be a long… week. My husband is home on holidays and seriously folks, I’m not kidding when I say he’s worse than my two younger children combined. This man cannot seem to amuse himself at all. So he is constantly picking at me just for something to do. I really hope the weather turns out nice today. Maybe then he will go outside and find something to do. Otherwise, it’ going to be a very long vacation for me. I’ll need a vacation after his vacation just to recuperate.

I absolutely hate to clean! I don’t know if there is anything worse in life that I would rather do. But unfortunately the house needs cleaned and I am the chosen one to do. I do have to admit that I do love the look, feel and smell of the home when I’m am finished all my work. And with products from Febreze and Mr. Clean, I actually don’t mind all the extra work.

Last week I was sent some products from Febreze and Mr. Clean to try out. Well I did and they are absolutely wonderful! But first I would like to say that although I did receive these products free of charge, the following review is my own opinion and I was not instructed on what to tell you all. These opinions are completely 100% my own.

The products I received included a Swiffer 360 Duster, Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Dishwasher Tablets, Mr. Clean and Febreze Disinfectant, and my absolute favorite product Febreze Thai Dragon Fruit Spray. I absolutely love the smell and look of my house this morning. I’m always fond of Febreze air freshers and do get quite excited when a new fragrance comes out. Well once again they did not disappoint. And the cleaning solution worked magic in my bathroom.

So… if you’re like I am and absolutely despise spring cleaning, then I suggest that you get you’re hands on some Febreze and Mr. Clean cleaning products. With the help of these products, spring cleaning will become less of a pain and more of a joy. You’ll love the end results! I did!
