I will share a few of these over the next few days but be sure to sign up for your Seven Day Challenge with Dancing through Crisis to see all of the videos and advice to help you on your journey. 

The first challenge was Share your experience in spinning the gratitude wheel. Draw a big circle on a piece of paper; divide it into 4 sections; in each section write what brings you joy; spin a pen and share your experience with whatever joy it lands on.

5 Ways to Keep Your Home Clean This Summer

 I know, it may be too early to think about summer but we all know it will be here before you know it, so why not be ready for whatever it has to throw at us this year. 

It may seem that once summer hits, your house is messier than ever. The kids are home, pulling out toys, starting projects and running inside and outside all day. Add in vacations, summer get-togethers and more fun, and before you know it, you're house is a wreck. Read on for 5 tips for keeping your home clean during the summer. 


Make a Schedule 

Making a schedule will make clean-up feel like a manageable task. Instead of spending an entire day trying to get your house straightened up, make a schedule of a couple of tasks to tackle each day. Your house will stay cleaner and you will feel like you're working less (bonus!). 


Pick Up as You Go 

One of the best ways to keep your house from getting too cluttered is to train yourself to pick up things as they are happening. If you are headed to the kitchen, collect any plates and cups along the way and deposit them in the sink. Make a pile of items near the stairs that need to go up or down so that you don't have to make a special trip. If you tidy as you go, you will not have large piles of clutter to sort through when you get ready to clean. 


Spend Time Outside 

Summer is the time of year to get outside. The more time your family spends outside, the less mess you are making inside the house. Try to think of fun outdoor activities for your family that keep you out of the house. Also think about eating outside, paper plates can be a lifesaver if you a in a hurry!


Get the Kids Involved 

Chances are, your kids are playing a large role in the messes being made. Creating a schedule for them to pick up toys, put away dirty clothes and stay on top of the dishes can help. Summer chores can be made fun with incentives like a family trip to the zoo or a day dedicated to the hardest worker.


Hire Professionals 

Consider hiring professional cleaners to help keep your house in good shape. You can get someone to come in once a week or month or on an as-needed basis. It is also important that if you have cleanup job that involves biohazards that you contact Advanced Bio Treatment. Advanced Bio Treatment will help you get the job done safely and efficiently.


3 Key Secrets to Moving & Unpacking Efficiently

 





Moving and unpacking can seem like a tedious process, but when you remember the 3 key secrets to getting the job done quickly and efficiently, it can make moving seem like an adventure.



Hire a Realtor 


If you happen to be looking in the Florida area, Amelia Island Real Estate, will definitely have your search come to an end. They are Floridians who deal with the perfect island home for you and your family. 


How exciting would it be to wake up to a cool Atlantic breeze and access to a full-service spa, biking, and walking trails and wellness and fitness centers? Even if you’re not moving to Florida, real estate agents are deeply connected and helpful when preparing for a move. They will take you through a breathtaking showcase experience of the different houses and property that will suit you and your family. 



Hire Movers


Looking forward to moving to your new home is an adventure, but when we think about moving, we dread the experience. Hiring professional movers, like Suddath is possibly the best decision you could make during this period. It not only saves you time but also it is cost effective. This is why: 

  • Your items are safe and insured. Accidents may happen, and when they do, you need not worry about those valuable pieces of art or dishes. The company has got you covered. 


  • They have the tools for the job. Once you hire professional movers, they come armed with the appropriate packing and moving equipment at your disposal.

  • Efficiency is guaranteed. Professional movers ensure that everything is in order as they do their work systematically meaning they will label all the boxes correctly and offload them to the correct room. 


  • Planning is made easy. When you hire professional movers, everything is taken care of from the day and time, and one does not have to deal with the last minute rushes. 



Make Time


Set aside 2-3 hours each night to unpack. Setting aside time each day will help alleviate the stress of feeling like you need to unpack everything within the first 24 hours. We recommend unpacking the bedroom first, and making sure you have clean linens before the move. This will give you a place to rest, and make you feel like your house is your home instantly. Technology must go last, so try to wait on plugging the TV in until all of the room are unpacked. The fewer the distractions the more motivated you will be to finished the task at hand.

My husband spoiled me

 Way before Christmas even before our anniversary he ordered me a new recliner so that I could sit in the living room with comfort. It took about 8 weeks to get here but came just days before Thanksgiving. He also ordered me new L.L. Bean slippers. My last pair lasted over 20 years and my slippers went missing during one of our moves so he asked which ones I wanted and ordered them for me. Christmas time was coming so I didn't really expect anything much if anything for Christmas. 

My computer has been chugging along like a old decrepit dinosaur hardly ever merging with our internet even with update, rolling it back, emptying cache, getting rid of cookies etc. We tried everything except for resetting to factory settings. I just have so much that we would have to save and his computer just does not have the room to hold my information and his while he could do this. 

I kept just using my computer and having things take twice as long, sites crashing, and my screen blinking. Zoom meeting were no longer working well, and my computer had to be restarted many times to get things accomplished, many times losing what I was working on and having to start all over again from scratch. I ended up scrapping most with frustration. 

Christmas morning came and I sat down and was about to tell the girls to take my computer into the bedroom when I noticed my black computer had turned silver. He had ordered a computer for me after asking me what I needed and he said it had came much earlier then expected so he had time to covertly copy my old computer files and transfer them to my new one. He had been saving money up and spent it on me. 

I wondered how he got it past me and he said it actually came one day when I was taking a nap so he didn't have to do anything too much out of the way. With the prices of computers going sky rocket he was waiting for a sale and ended up buying one right from HP themselves and was able to find exactly what I needed at a much lower price then others were asking for computers with less capabilities. 

I feel both loved and blessed for the gifts he bought me. Now I can breeze through sites, responding and posting things with little effort. Life is so much easier and to think I have only had my computer in my hands for a little over 24 hours. Now I can post more often and get back to reviewing products without fighting to get things posted.
