Safe Pet Walking at Night



When you are walking your dog at night you want motorists to be able to see you and your pet. This is a great way to be able to insure that while walking your dog.

A set of LED lights inside of a dog collar. I love it, hope to see these in cat size as well. Great for outside animals as well as just in case your dear pet gets loose in the neighborhood. Sure makes it easier to find them at night.

Easy on and off switch so you can save the batteries for night time use only. I think this is a great item and look forward to seeing this in more sizes and colors. Our Princess loves her new jewelry.

You can purchase the EpicPet Pet Supplies LED collar on Amazon.

Fruit and Tea Tumbler


A new idea for our family. We have been infusing water with fruit, but we hadn't tried to infusing tea with fruit. Oh my it is so good and just as easy as it is when you do water.

Love the glass bottle, kind of like drinking out of a tall mason jar. We were looking for a change from infused water and we have found it. We have even started infusing different fruit with lemonade. Yummy.

The metal mesh keeps the fruit or tea if you are using fresh tea leaves from going into your mouth while drinking the tea. What I love most is that I can still use herbal tea bags, or even decaffeinated tea so I can enjoy a nice cool drink.

You can purchase the Ephistica Infusion Bottle on Amazon.

Organization for your broom closet




Years ago in our first apartment we had something like this and I have been looking for a good one ever since. Luckily Ohuhu came to my rescue with the perfect holder for our brooms, mops, and dusters.

We had been storing our mops in the bathroom tub with the pails, and the brooms were stored in between the stove and refrigerator, always falling over, getting in the way when ever we were to take them in or out. Every Time we used the garbage or took it out they would all fall over.

As for the mops well every time someone wants a shower they have to take them out of the bathtub and then remember to put them back when they are done. The Ohuhu broom and mop organizer installs quickly and holds our mops, brooms, and dusters well. You don't have to fight to get them to stay and when you remove them you don't have to pull hard to be ale to use them.

Organization is key at any age really, now that I am getting older I like to have everything where it needs to be, I don't like having to look all over the house for the items I need. Even though we live in a huge house, we don't have a broom closet which was half the problem, but we do have a basement and there is a wall there that this fit into just perfectly. Now to find a spot for those pesky mop pails.

You can purchase the Ohuhu Mop and Broom Holder on Amazon.

Getting ready for gift giving



I read somewhere it is like 17 weeks before Christmas. Boy does time fly by. Being a parent with 6 children and 2 grandchildren, life is really busy, which seems to make time fly by even more quickly. We have a bit of a money bind due to a shortage with income, as in waiting for Disability to start up which is taking a long time. We knew it would but still money is super tight. I told each of the children to pick one gift they would like and I will try my best to get what they want.

If money happens to be a bit better then expected around the holidays then their might be a bit more, but for now it is one gift and I hope stockings for everyone. I will be thankful if I can at least do that for each of my children and grandchildren.

I was able to score these tags for a good deal and want to do a simple Holiday. I still love the Holidays but with having Fibromyalgia and having pain everyday I needed to cut back so that I will be here for many Holidays to come, and not burn myself out.

Yes I am finally listening to the Dr. but I still feel a bit sad that the Holidays aren't what they once were. I loved all the baking, wrapping, activities, but I have had to pare back quite a bit or else I get overwhelmed as well as depressed because I can't do it all.

So here are these cute tags. Easy to use, simple and will look great on the presents wrapped in either Newspaper or if I feel up to a bit of the wrapping paper I have hidden in the basement from last years clearance sales.

These are great for crafts, cards, presents, gifts, as well as to put prices on in your home made shop of goods. Think gift baskets, special presents for that someone you just knew it would be perfect for.

You can purchase Pack of 100 Kraft Tags with 10m Jute Twine on Amazon.

Packing essential





Just the right size for travel be it a weekend giveaway, sleep over, or travel by plane. To be honest I don't understand why anyone would need to take a carry on with their shampoo and conditioner on the plane where you sit. I would think bringing full size products for a trip away from home would be much more economical and would be just as safe in the cargo part of the plane. Maybe I am wrong but it just makes sense to me.

Maybe people do it because they only have a carry on, or maybe they do it because they are afraid the airport will lose their luggage, which I can understand. No one wants to go out and find shampoo and conditioner while they are on vacation, when they should be enjoying themselves.

So here are these cute little bottles that can be filled with lotion, shampoo, conditioner, or other products you might need for a short trip away. I know when I was younger my mother bought me a set that was not soft like this, the bottles were hard and rigid. I still thought they were fun and got me through lots of sleep overs and church camps through the years.


You can purchase the Vumos Travel Bottles set with bag on Amazon.
