Are you ready for back to school? No matter what age your children are, school is a big deal. What to wear, what to carry lunch and essentials in, and of course, the hair. Are your kids telling you what you need to know for them to be comfortable and all ready to get back to school? Amazon Prime has a large number of back-to-school items. I suggest you engage your child, at whatever age, to make the choices that please them and help them to be comfortable on the first day back. Giving your child the opportunity to choose helps them to be “allRead More →

I recently discovered that you can wash clothes with magnets! I have had a skin irritation that has an unknown cause and I am trying to eliminate possible environmental issues. One possible irritant is soap or detergent. Rather than purchase soap that was safer and free of allergens, I decided the magnet choice was better. I ordered the magnets from the company through Amazon. So far… my clothes are clean and soap-free. This eliminated one more allergen from my experience. If you are sensitive to chemicals, or just want less of them in your life, give these a try. I placed them on opposite sidesRead More →

Have you ever looked at something and say, wow, why didn’t I think of that? OR, why didn’t I see this sooner? With the holidays coming and lights needed everywhere, you can never have enough plugs and extension cords! I wonder why the extensions do not have the grounding plug. Most of my electrical things have plugs with the grounding plug. My favorite brilliant idea product was made in 2001. It worked so well. Unfortunately, I cannot locate it to purchase more. Have you seen this? Master Manufacturing Co. in Cleveland, OH made it then. Now it is listed as Master Caster Cord Away SelfRead More →

Amazon Paid Link -Transparent masks - I am an affiliate

Mask mandates are creating a level of difficulty in my relationship with my closest friend, who happens to be half-deaf. She reads lips, mine, to understand what I am saying. When we are out together, she relies on me to listen to masked retail clerks and wait staff and then help her to understand. When I am masked, I lower my mask, tell her what was said and raise up my mask, so the others will not chastise me for that action. We recently took a trip to Wyoming and Montana, and there were no mask rules. They still suggested we maintain a safe distanceRead More →

Sometimes you might want the screensaver not to come on and you don’t want to manage it by nudging it every few moments. Did you know the placing the mouse on top of a watch with a second hand does that nudging for you? The optical mouse detects the movement and the screensaver does not get activated. Optical mice are watching the movement below them!

I have been designing and creating T-Shirts for the online store Neateeshirts.com with my friend and business partner Linnaea Mallette. We thought it might be a good idea to have an offer for our visitors. We thought about writing a T-shirt care book because when you buy a shirt that is unique and one-of-a-kind, you do not want to have it ruined by bad laundry or other decisions. So I proceeded to write the book, then publish it to Kindle. I am pleased to say we promoted the book today and it became a number 1 AMAZON BEST SELLER! What fun!. Now we will beRead More →

The Cat Laughed book Cover

Self-publishers, those that write books, non-fiction and fictional, need the support of a few people to make the end product a great work. Writers are the creators. The support people are the ones that can take that creation and make it readable, beautiful and correct grammatically. Here I am going to talk about the four main support people every writer should use before publishing the work into printed or electronic form. A writer has what is commonly called a manuscript. It is the body and heart of the work that will become the printed book. This manuscript should be reviewed by someone who is notRead More →
