So Clean

I swear the floor to my shower seems like it is cleanser resistant. Nothing has been working to clean my shower as I like it.  Thanks to an idea on Pinterest I mixed equal parts Dawn dish soap and Heinz white vinegar and watched the magic happen. Soap scum melted away and the floor looks brand spankin' new.  I am not sure why I never thought of the idea myself. I use vinegar to clean my floors and use it in my dishwasher in place of Jet Dry. The floors are a lot cleaner.  Your feet literally squeak on the floor.  It also makes the glasses come out clearer and same with my Tupperware.

Tomorrow is Monday. Make it a successful week!

Simple Home Updates

Just a quick update...  If you are looking to do something to spruce up the house but not spend alot of money.  Think about changing out your current door knobs.  We had these brass looking door knobs in our house and we changed them out with "aged bronze" door knobs by Gate House.  You can buy them at Lowes for under $15.00, about fifty percent cheaper than Kwikset.  I figured since they are indoor door knobs I can go cheaper.  They update the look of the door and kind of looks like we repainted the doors too.

Looking forward to Friday to get the weekend started.  Hope it's a good one for everyone!

What to say?

Last night after dropping her cousin off at home my daughter asks me "what do our souls look like?" I did a double take and asked "Huh?"  She asked again, mama "what do our souls look like?"  I felt like I had to be quick in my response, I didn't want to keep her hanging.  I said that our souls are round like the sun and are bright like the sun.  She accepted that.  Then she followed with, mama "why does God take our souls to Heaven?"  I again feeling like I needed to give her an answer said, "because God turns our souls into angels.  I explained we are humans here on earth and we are turned into
angels in Heaven to spend eternity with our loved ones who are also angels."  It was a pretty intense conversation for a 6 year old.  Who am I kidding, it was an intense conversation for a 38 year old.

Anyone else have had their kids ask them similar questions??  How do you answer them?
