TWO QUESTIONS---

1) Does anyone have a paper shredder I can borrow? I have a filing cabinet that needs to be thinned before we move.

2) What is your favorite cleaning supply that I absolutely need to have to clean my house before we leave?

Anonymous said...: I like an all-purpose cleaner called Simple green. The 22 oz bottle can make 5 gals of general cleaner. Or it can be used full strength on hard to clean areas. It is saver than toxic cleaners. It's not to be used on Plastic instrument panels. Web site is www.simplegreen.com.; August 4, 2008 at 10:04 AM

Andrea said...: I agree about the magic erasers! I couldn't live without them. They actually work on stoves and sinks along with walls. What time are you leaving on Friday?; August 5, 2008 at 1:37 AM

Thoughts I live by

Don't take yourself too seriously.
Never participate in chain letters.
Don't worry about what others think about you because they're probably too busy thinking about themselves and worrying what others think of them to worry about you.
What you lack in talent can be made up for with determination and hard work.
Surround yourself with people and things that make you smile.
Find something you love to do and do it.
Find someone you love to love and tell them.
Take time to read a good book.
Dance whenever you can.
Elephants are always a good idea.
