Spring is the season that typically motivates me to do an in-depth cleaning of our home. Because I only have a small amount of solo time each week, I make the most of it by being efficient. Anything that makes those necessary tasks easier and less time-consuming is worth investing in.

I just finished a HUGE cleaning series so you're probably wondering why I'm blogging about yet ANOTHER cleaning product. AND, I assume you're wondering why I'm blogging about a product that doesn't seem to be very "green" (particularly considering it's Earth Week). I don't know about you, but where we live (which is about 10 minutes or so from the beach) it gets h... Read More »

As a nurse and a parent, I've accumulated more papers than I can keep track of. I clip magazine articles from nursing and parenting magazines, save all of my old nursing files, and generally just have a lot of paper clutter that must vacate my house! When I started my cleaning spree at the beginning of March, one of my goals was to reduce the paper clutter in my... Read More »

If I told you that I could use plain water and a microfiber cloth to get everything from my son's high chair to our stainless steel refrigerator clean, you'd probably either laugh and think I'm crazy, or lift an eyebrow with intrigue. I hope you're doing the latter! I don'... Read More »

Every spring I try to take inventory of what needs to be cleaned and organized. But do you ever stop to think about the "daily clean?" Dishes and laundry fall into that category for me. We purchased a new dishwasher a few ... Read More »

Now that our homes are starting to sparkle, we can't forget to make sure they smell lovely too. One of my favorite things to do is light a candle. I just love candles. I love the ambiance they bring to a room. I love their subtle way of em... Read More »

I wish I could tell you that I am a neat freak. My husband wishes he could tell you I'm a neat freak. I wasn't even a neat freak before we had my son, so you can imagine how organized (or unorganized) this full-time mom, wife, and nurse is. My in-laws are coming in abou... Read More »

While cleaning doesn't necessarily excite me, innovative, eco-friendly cleaning products do. Have I told you about my extreme dislike for sponges? I think they're gross. Those little grooves are certain to hide all kinds of icky microbes AND they fall apart whe... Read More »

In my house, the three-second rule doesn't usually apply. Being a NICU nurse, we throw away everything that comes in contact with the floor, even if it's just for a second. Being that this is ingrained within me, I don't make it a habit of eating or giving my so... Read More »

I am an organizational mess! My husband often complains about how unorganized I am. The worst by far is my paper mess. Because I'm a nurse, I have a ton of magazines and continuing education literature that have to be kept for licensing purposes. But it d... Read More »
