Cleaning Hacks to Make Your Life Simpler


Mop Your Shower

I’m not a fan of getting on hands and knees to clean the shower or the tub. Soooo…I use a mop. You can even mop the walls if you’d like. That’s what I do. It’s easier on my back too. I still scrub when it REALLY needs it but this is my main go-to approach.

Use a mop to clean your shower


Windows, Mirrors, and Little Helpers

Here’s a 2 for 1! I’ve been cleaning windows and mirrors with paper towels for years. Then all of a sudden it occurred to me that a squeegee could do a much better job. It also makes it a lot easier to get your littles involved. I do the high parts and then my eldest takes the bottom. He loves it and does a pretty fabulous job.

Forget the paper towels and enlist your kids helps with easy tip for cleaning mirrors

I’ll never tell but I *am* a mom. So there’s that.

Instagram post 2191962183171328979_4135170908 I only wanted a Ken doll. ⁣
⁣
With all the dolls I possessed named Barbie and Skipper, one would think I’d be happy to simply accessorize. Plastic shoes and shimmering outfits were aplenty. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But no Ken. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Then, my younger brother opened the most unusual gift on his birthday. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The Hawaiian button up shirt and silky board shorts were unmistakable. His plastic smile and blue-green eyes greeted me from across the room. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
O fortuitous arrival! My Barbies would have a man! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Of course- that meant playing with my brother. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
With two years separating us, I found his company to be tolerable. Similar to an unimpressed cat with an enthusiastic puppy. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Could I risk inviting him into my world? Perhaps. Yes. I think we can make this work, I reasoned. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So began the integration of worlds. Barbies and GI Joes. My Little Pony and Micro Machines. A society of plastic and metal would gather together- for the delight of both my brother and I- to play. ⁣⁣
