Loving

I want to pay tribute to a few things that I use and love.

First, the swiffer vacuum.
I first got a swiffer while we were in MS for the summer.  It worked well so I took it back to UT with us. With the larger apartment (our MS apartment was a converted hotel room...small) I found that large pieces of debris collect at the front of the cloth and I would think "ugh" and continue on BUT duh duh duh DUH.  THIS is the amazingER upgrade.  It has a vacuum.   
AWESOME! (I know right*).
I just put the cloth on and I can do the whole house without running out of battery and without getting frustrated or making piles all over that I later have to get the broom and dustpan out for anyway. LOVE

Second, A weed whacker
Texas has grass.  and it grows.  We don't water it.  but. It grows.  Nice right... wrong.  We have a reel mower meaning no power (great work out) and without that power, if the grass is really long, it takes FOR-E-VER! and it is hot!  AND if you go on vacation and the grass gets long it is IM-POS-I-BLE. ENTER----weed whacker!**
Not only can I "mow" LONG grass (like a jungle okay?!) but I can get it as short as I want and it doesn't take nearly as long.  Downside... takes electricity.. from the house.. raising our power bill (I am on a mission to lower our power bill a lot)

Third, Microfiber
Rags! I got a lot for a little.  Awesome bright color*** and they are great for cleaning anything.  I van even get the nasty sticky, dusty, stuck on dirtiness of the toaster with this rag and WATER! cleans the microwave like a dream again.. just water.  mop floor, do windows, mirrors, counters, walls, we washed the car with them this morning. they are the coolest.

*I said "I know, right" and for some reason I like it a lot
** That's not the one we own but this picture is fine
*** If you get these (sams club) WASH THEM ALL TOGETHER IN ONE LOAD WITH JUST THEM.  UGH!

who's that?? my baby!
