"not me" Monday!

I did not photograph this sick little girl. Nope "not me" I would never take pictures of my kids when they're sick.  Who want to be photographed when they don't feel good?  Certainly "not me" so why would I torture my poor sweet child like that?
Today is crazy sock day at school for literacy week and I certainly did not just tell my children to wear two different socks.  That would be lazy.  I then did NOT take a picture of their non-matching socks to document my laziness.  I also did not think that if it were the 80's I would certainly have some seriously crazy socks for my kids to wear because of course I am NOT that old.
Oh I also did not take these pictures using Manual settings on my camera for the first time.  Nope "not me"  I have not been using the GREEN auto button for over a year and I am NOT scared to venture out and try something new NOPE "not me".
Hope you are all having a fabulous "not me"  Monday.  Head on over to MckMama's blog to see what others are NOT doing today too.

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
