The laundry never ends...
As I opened the dryer door I thought to myself I would love to climb in there. Little did I know in a few moments my kids would walk into to find half of me sticking out of that very dryer.
Standing there folding clothes I noticed a large black lump stuck behind one of the tumblers. Reaching my fingers into the back of the dryer I discovered a chocolaty sticky substance. I try to pry it out only to get more chocolaty goo on my fingers. So with butter knife in hand I climbed on a chair and began prying the mass out of the dryer. Someone had left a toostie roll in their pocket and I had missed in during inspection.
Fortunately it didn't take much more and the the candy sprung free, and it appears their is no candy on any clothing.
Not too exciting of a story, but I'm sure I looked silly climbing in the dryer.

Beam me up mom..
Would life be great if we could just transport to where we need to be? No need for coats, boots and all the required winter gear.
However what about safety issues? Strangers beaming in whenever they want.
Good or bad? What do you think?
Also anyone know anything about Wordpress??

Mommy needs time in a padded cell rant
I also forgot to add that the baby needed his diaper changed. He had to be removed from the car seat, changed and put back into the car seat so we could leave again - all against his wishes to stay home & be free.
Thanks for listening..

In Kristine's shower
There's nothing funner than receiving a package in the mail. The anticipation of opening the box and revealing the contents is one of my favorite things. What could be inside? So when I received an email notice of a package in my mailbox, I was happy to slip on my giant snow boots, trek out into the very cold and dark night to retrieve the parcel waiting for me.
I returned to the house, bubbling like a school girl. What was in that little box? It was labeled from "IN KRISTINE'S SHOWER". I slit the tape and a whiff of delicious scent hit my nose, the anticipation heightened. On top of packing peanuts was a thank note from the owner, Jenny Hoehn and beneath that was foam smiley faces, shapes and a potpourri of goodies galore.
The first thing I removed from the package was a little bar of homemade soap. The label said,"Citrus Safari" the bar was a tan color with an orange marble streak in it. It smelled like tangerines and a burst of citrus. MMMMM..
Next I found 3 matchbook notepads. Perfect to put in my purse and let little hands doodle on.
Digging a little further I found a little jar of Aloe Vera Body Whip, scent Lavender dreams. Even after sitting at room temperature the whip is cold feeling going on, but it makes your skin SO soft.
The next jar I found was Shea Butter Body Frosting, scent Malibu Baby. Let me tell you this it's bright teal blue. The scent is like blueberries or bubblegum. It's yummy. The frosting has pure cane sugar in it. Great for removing rough areas & dead patches left from that long winter.
What better to follow frosting than Sorbet? Kristine's Shower Shea Butter Body Sorbet is next, scent Pearberry. The scent is good, not over powering, and this smells even better on. Labeled a head to toe moisturizer it feels smooth & creamy. I can't wait to try this on my hair.
The next thing I removed from the box was not something for my body, but something for my soul. An 100% Soy wax Meltie scented girly girl. The directions say to pop it into a tart burner & enjoy. The scent was that of flowers which lingered through out the house.
The last thing in my goodie box was a Shea Butter Bath Bomb scent Vanilla Sugar. Wrapped in a cellophane wrapper it smelled mmm mmm good. I couldn't wait to light my tart warmer and toss that bath bomb into the tub.
Neither could my little girls as they careful planned out which items they would be taking into the tub with them.
After trying everything I would have to say wow. I'm impressed. I like how my skin feels after I use the products and the house smells great. What a great stress reliever. A ncie little treat just for me.. that's if I can get it away from my girls. : )
Jenny is great to work with and prompt with her replies. She was a pleasure to deal with. Oh an she's a WAHM.. Got to support fellow WAHMS : )
I recommend checking out In Kristine's Shower & if you use this special code you can receive 25% off with your order - post25.
I think I'm going to go hide again in my tub, maybe if I'm lucky they won't find me there. : )
