A Long Hiatus and a Call for Help

2011-08-31T08:36:00.000-04:00

I've been blog-lazy and uncreative for too long (8 months, to be exact) and now that school has started again, I'm ready to get back on the bandwagon. My current passion is organizing a few areas of my home, starting with our hall closet.

I apologize for the photo quality, but the lighting isn't great and I took it with my phone (hey, easy upload). I also apologize for the state of the mess inside, and I thought about straightening it first, but decided to just go with it because I wanted to be real in my plead for help.

This closet has a strange shape - sort of square on one side and octagon on the other (past the ironing board). It does have some lovely wire shelves though, and that makes my job a little easier.

As you can see, it currently houses board games, bed linens and my ironing board. I plan to relocate the bed linens to the rooms they belong to. It only makes sense to have our sheets with the beds they go on.

Then I plan to purchase a tabletop ironing board. I lug out this huge ironing board about 4 times a year for various small projects, so a tabletop model half the size of this one would work for what I need.

But where I need help is with board game organization. We play all of them quite a bit and the boxes are falling apart, pieces sometimes get misplaced, and the games are falling off the shelves. Some games don't have boxes (Uno Attack, Hungry Hungry Hippos) and some have small pieces that just get thrown into the box (although I have used sandwich bags to contain some of them).

So what have you done to organize your board games? Have you seen or heard of any great ideas that other have done? I need all the ideas I can get!

I hope your school year is going great so far and if your kids haven't started yet, enjoy those last few days of no routines, no homework and no demanding mornings!

Frugal Friday: A New Vacuum Cleaner without Spending a Dime

2010-09-24T18:48:00.000-04:00

I have a love/hate relationship with my vacuum cleaner. I hate to lug it out, plug it in and push and pull it across my floors. But I love to see the dirt container fill up because then I know it's working well.

I've had my current vacuum cleaner for about 5 years and for the first 4, it was working great. But during the last year or so, I've had to vacuum my floors a few times to get them clean.

So before my last cleaning marathon, I decided to investigate the inner workings of my vacuum cleaner. I found out that my particular model has WASHABLE FILTERS!! I knew this was the problem, so I proceeded to dissect my vacuum cleaner and pull out all FOUR of the filters.

I hit them against my driveway several times, removing all the dust trapped inside.

Then I rinsed them in my kitchen sink, removing even more dirt, and put them on a towel to dry overnight. The next day I put them all back in place in my vacuum cleaner.

Then the magic happened. I turned on my vacuum cleaner and it worked just like it was brand new! The suction power was amazing and the dirt container filled up very quickly, leaving me to wonder what I had been missing in my carpet before I cleaned the filters!

If you've owned your vacuum cleaner for over a year, be sure and clean or replace your filters and you'll see a vast improvement!

It's like having a new vacuum cleaner for free (or relatively cheap if you have to replace your filters).

Hope everyone has a great Friday night!
