Tuesday's tip: Nice smelling clothes

I take scented soaps and place them in old socks (one's that are no longer a pair) and knot them at the end and  place the "sachet" in a clothing drawer or on shelf. When I wear the clothes, they smell nice (even my underwear).

Make-Up Bag Makeover

After peeling off the flaking fabric and replacing with duct tape......

It is not perfect, but I am able to keep my "perfect sized" bag.

(If only it were this easy to make over one's life!)

In the kitchen on Thursday: An easy dinner

Once a week, Thursday  night to be exact, we have OYO for dinner. That is "on your own." This means that we all get our dinner—take out, left overs or cobbled together from what is in the fridge. The benefit is that food does not go to waste and we can make a meal suited to our individual tastes (I don't like spciy and my daughter does). I wonder what I am having for dinner tonight.

Tuesday's Tip: Triple check

When you make a plan be sure to double and even triple check the time and other pertinent information (Today, I have a webinar at 10 am PDT, not EST which is pertinent info I overlooked).

To blog or not....

I am sitting in my home office (yes, I work from home) and realizing two things—1. A blog has to be ahead of the curve to attract people and it has to be content that people want to read, so I guess my Tuesday's Tips and In the Kitchen on Thursday or old school and that is why I am not attracting people. right?
