Thank You Very Much!

Thank you philosophy "hope in a jar" I do love you. You make my skin youthful and lovely, but really why do you make me sweat florescent yellow?? I had to explain to about a million people why I had yellow stuff all over my face after I ran 13.1 miles. I didn't want to talk about my sweat I wanted to talk about how awesome it was that I just ran a half marathon and instead I was talking about you!
Thanks,

Winter,
Thanks for sticking around with all your inversions and bad air quality. We just adore you. Our dry, cracked skin delights in your lack of moisture. And of course on the bad air quality days we really LOVE to stay indoors because that is so much fun with three rambunctious children.
Thanks,

Oh and thanks (being serious here) to all my readers and commenters who keep coming back for more. Seriously LOVE you guys!!
Sincerely,

How to get Urine/Sweat stains out of your Mattress

If you have kids you have pee stains I know it. If you don't lucky you or you are a liar and in denial. I have pee stains on more than one mattress. I also have sweat stains on pillows because well I sweat a.lot . It's a gift I know. I digress. Anyway I have tried many different ways to get urine/pee out of mattresses and I have been very unsuccessful so I did a google search and what do you know? Another mom had pee stains too. So I borrowed her recipe and it totally worked so I am sharing it with you. All you need are these few house-hold ingredients and a spray bottle. I bought a really expensive one (NOT) I used one I had for my kids hair. It worked great. You will need: 3 Tablespoons Baking Soda 8 ounces Hydrogen peroxide 1 drop dish soap Mix together well and use right away. My mom discovered that if it is not mixed well the baking soda will clog the sprayer. You also can't store this apparently it doesn't last in the bottle and it is no longe

Master Bedroom Makeover Board and Batten

I highly recommend a few items although you don't HAVE to have them it just makes this project go so much faster. I bought a pancake compressor with three nail guns included saved me on this project and a miter saw. I bought both from Home Depot and they didn't pay me to say that it is just where I happen to shop. I actually had this all measured out and went to Home Depot and they cut the mdf primed boards for me. However I later purchased the miter saw and was then able to cut things right here at my house. The nail gun I used is a 16 gauge gun that can shoot nails up to 3 inches. I used a 2.5 inch nail to cover the thickness of the board and wall. Ok so I recommend deciding how you want your boards spaced first and measure and mark on the wall where you want them. I tried to do every 16 inches because that is how far apart my studs were but then I realized my wall wasn't an even length and so I have some that look a little off on the ends. Lesson learned
