I have all kinds of ideas running through my head. Some of them are actually do-able. Ha!
I think because of my position as an Operating Room Nurse, I am mindful of looking for ways to make things handy. Always getting ready for the next move, trying to stay one step ahead. So, I am always thinking "okay, if I do this, then it will make it easier to do this".
Here are two of my newest "inventions".
#1. I love my Snuggie(TM). I use it winter and summer. I use it in the summer because the only air conditioner I have in my apartment blows directly on me. I can't change that, so I just go with the flow and wear my Snuggie.
But, it is like a wrestling match each time I put it on, trying to find the top, and then, making sure I have it right side out.
Well, no more! I solved the problem! I put a large binder clip at the top of my Snuggie. It has made a huge difference in finding the top.
Then, to know which side is the front, I put a pretty piece of washi tape, across the front of the binder clip.
No my sparring matches!!
I am so happy with this that I wanted to share it with other Snuggie lovers!
#2. I am a note writer. I have to write things down pretty much the instant I think of them or VROOOOM, the thought is gone!
I was in the kitchen and needed to write something down, I went to another cabinet that I keep note pads in and picked up a Post it Note(TM) pad.
It is the standard size pad, and guess what???????? It was the exact fit for sticking to the inside of my kitchen drawer! I took the back off of it and stuck it on the inside side of the drawer.
It has came in quite handy. I jot something down, then stick it or use a magnet to stick it to the fridge until such a time comes when I can add it to my note application on my phone. Love it!
I hope 1 or both of this tips will be useful to you!
I would so appreciate your support, please follow my blog my e mail.
I am also on bloglovin, g+, pinterest, and twitter.
The reason I need followers is because companies require that the blogger has a certain number of followers before they will allow them to review their products. I LOVE doing product reviews. So... I need your help in order to do that. Thank you ever so much for your time.
I hope you have "the best day ever".

Rachelle Ayala "Knowing Vera"
This books has many components, many different things going on, and several characters. You will need to pay close attention to character names, so that you don't get to the end book, and have rack your brain as to who this or that person was.
There is something for all in this book, steamy love scenes, crime, and loads of mystery. Mystery as to who killed.... Lillian Spencer! You think you have it figured out, only to find out you don't!
I loved this book, could not put it down! Five Stars!!

Rachelle Ayala - Book Review
Hello, I hope ya'll are doing good! I am very happy that I was given the opportunity to review Rachelle Ayala's book; "Your Daily Bible Verse."
First of all, I would like to say that I consider reading the Bible a privilege. A privilege that is denied to many.
Ms. Ayala has written a Bible study book unlike any other I have ever read. She had me getting out my Bible before I was even finished reading the introduction!
"Your Daily Bible Verse" is an unique book based on the month and day of the year. For instance on July 19th, you would be reading the 7th Chapter, 19th Verse of which ever Book Ms. Ayala was led to choose for that day.
With some Bible study books one can read the scripture and commentary and feel that they have finished their Bible study; without ever opening the Bible. Ms. Ayala has written just the verse for the day. Some of them I recognize and know the story behind it, while other days have me going to my Bible to find out what is going on around the chosen verse. And, isn't that what a Bible study book should do? Have you digging deeper into the word of God. Ms. Ayala also gave me the idea to read the verses of my birthday. You should give it a try, it is a fun way to spend time in the word of God.
I definitely feel this is a book one would welcome into their Bible study collection. 5 Stars!! The book page can be found here: http://rachelleayala.me/books/your-daily-bible-verse/

There's a special verse for each of the 366 days of the year. Includes Bible Verse Memorization tips. [all verses from the King James Version.]

More of "Trevor Says"
Hello, I hope this post finds you well and happy!
If you have followed my blog, you know that Trevor is my 3 year old Grandson, and he is quite the little character!
I was babysitting him yesterday. Here is how the conversation went:
Trevor: " I have to poop."
Me: "Well, go do it".
T: "Can you wipe my butt good?"
Me: (thrown off guard) "Yes, I can wipe your butt good." (I've only been doing it since he was six weeks old) lol
T: " Well if you wipe my butt good, I'll give you some candy, but if you don't wipe my butt good, No Candy!"
Me: (cracking up, and wondering; who didn't wipe his butt good? LOL
After, I wiped his butt, and for the added hope of receiving candy, I also used a cleansing cloth, he said "Did you wipe my butt good?" I told him that I had. He then went into the kitchen and got up on the counter, and said "well, here is your candy".
I have never received M&M's for wiping someone's butt before, and I have wiped a lot of butts, as I was a RN, mother of 2 and grandmother of 3. But, I gotta tell ya, I think the kid is on to something! LOL
A reward for a job well done!
This little guy cracks me up! And, I am so happy to have my family in my life, each and everyone of them are a joy to me.
If you have funny kid conversations, I would love to hear them!
