The Cat Master

If your cats are anything like mine as soon as they use the bathroom they want to hop on you and take a snooze but not before they get little cat little chunks all the way from the litter box to you, and on you.

With a mat like this the cat litter stays by the cat litter box not on the floor or your furniture. I love that this is paw shaped very cute.

The mat is available in three colors so you can match your decor. To clean we just take it outside and give a few wacks and the litter falls out and it is ready to be put back for more use.

The Paw shaped cat litter mat can be found on Amazon.

Homeless in Marksville Day 4

Homeless in Marksville Day 4 July 9th 2016

Today I was able to sleep in. I had hoped my back would feel better but it is still overcast and raining on and off so I will give my back a few more days to feel better since the forecast calls for two more days of rain, before making a Dr.'s appointment.

My daughter, her girlfriend, and her mother came down to check on me and the kids as well as take me to the store so I could pick up some things we needed like toilet paper. What motel doesn't provide toilet paper? The one we are staying at I guess. I also picked up some food for my husband that my daughter's girlfriends mom dropped off for him.

I was able to get everything on our list and some treats as well for the kids. Then we returned home. My daughter will be visiting her dad on Monday on the way back from her concert.

The kids played with Dorothy's new play-doh set while sharing cupcakes with the other homeless kids here. There isn't much to do here other then sit and watch TV or sit outside of your door.

Things aren't perfect but I am glad the kids have made friends. So far I have met three of the families here as well as one of the kids from a family on the other end who enjoyed a treat with the kids the other day. Pretty much the whole motel here is full of homeless families except for one room which they save for cash paying customers.

I will be talking to the owner tomorrow about getting a password for the internet if there is one available, and if not asking if I can get a router put in. I called the cable company that services here and they said if I get permission they will put one in for us. The kids are super excited for this to happen.

You may ask what I have been doing with all of the extra time. Well I have been reading the books I have on my iPad mini from Kindle need to sync soon to get new books while taking ones I have already read off. Again the internet is needed. Other then that I have been trying to get adjusted to this new way of living while trying to keep it fun for the girls.

That is about it for day 4, going to take a shower and read some more before turning in for the night.

Medium Roto Caddy

A great way to organize your refrigerator or pantry. I can even see this being used in a bathroom to store items under the sink.

With a little rotation you can see everything on the two built in lazy susans. I love that these are well made, and \are stackable.

My daughter likes this for under the bathroom sink for her hair care products, shampoos, perfumes ext.

These come in three sizes and also have a handle so you can carry them although I would have liked to see the handles a bit longer or at least telescope out so you can carry it when it is full.

Roto Caddy is available on Amazon.


What Sterline has to say about their product.

Using your New Sterline Roto Caddy TM 
Deciding on which size Roto Caddy TM to use: First, you will want to decide which caddy best suits your storage and organization needs. The small roto caddy is good for spices, medications, and any smaller toiletries you may have. The medium roto caddy is perfect for soda cans, food condiments and hairspray bottles. The large roto caddy is good for soup cans and sauces, as well as regular spray paint cans and objects similar in size.

Then, simply line up the slots on the bottom of the next caddy and put it on top of the other one! Only three units can be stacked at a time.

Homeless in Marksville Day 3

Homeless in Marksville Day 3 July 8th 2016

Today was a bit better with the toaster oven to help out as well as the towels, and other items we had bought making things a bit easier on us. It has been a quite day not much of the kids playing other then sitting outside the door and talking.

We found out today they don't provide toilet paper and you are supposed to clean the floors and fixtures yourself which seems a bit strange so we had to borrow a broom from one of the other families here to clean up a bit. We wash our dishes in a tiny bathroom sink.

My husband wants us to get a hot plate but I can not see how I would be able to clean a pan in the sink as it would be bigger then the sink. We are on day three and no one has asked us if we need clean sheets or blankets.

They aren't dirty yet and we are thankful no cockroaches or bedbugs but we have heard rumors that two doors down they do have bed bugs but none here so we are feeling blessed in that alone.

The hotel has been renovated to a point as in new bathroom, air conditioner/heater, but the beds are old as well as the table with no chairs, desk, and nightstand. I am thinking they will add things on as they make it more presentable.

It is getting to be around 9 here so the girls will be coming in to take their showers etc and maybe watch something on TV. We have been watching the food network, in the mornings Dorothy watches the Disney channel and if I have the TV on we are watching old shows like the Andy Griffith Show.

All we have with us is a flashdrive with Big Bang Theory on it as well as the full run of Gidget which I am saving for a boring day for the girls to start watching. Missing Netflix and Amazon something fierce.

I am going to try and ask the owner tomorrow if they are going to be getting wifi or if he has a line I can hook up to a couple of hours a day to get my posts up  and stay in touch with family and friends. I noticed there  are two wifi with two wifi guest signals here but I don't know the password so wish me luck in finding a way on so I can stay in touch with everyone.
