First cold day in a while and I am hibernating. The weekend couldn't come fast enough this week it seemed. I think I've picked up something, yesterday I was feeling puny. I came home and cuddled up... ended up wrapping some presents. I'm sorta achy today. But I did manage to try a couple DIY cleaners this morning. white vinegar and regular Dawn dish washing liquid is the most magical cleaner I have ever used. I swear my tub & shower are sparkling. I picked up the trail on pinterest.

We also had a clogged drain in the shower...Baking soda & white vinegar have a neat trick. I swear I don't think I will ever buy draino again. Baking soda down the drain, add the vinegar, & plug the drain. Of course I was always a sucker for the volcano science project... depending on the artistic ability of the kid it can really look professional. I built an electromagnet. It involved screws, batteries, magnets, & a 1"x4"x12" ...... anyway. Use it because it's fun & amazing!

Now I must get back to hibernating the rest of this day. Christmas is next week... tomorrow morning my Christmas Week to do list kicks off. This is also my last work week before I take the rest of my vacation time. Woo hoo!
