Here it is! My First Product review!
I choose the Scrubbing Bubbles Extend-A-Clean Power Sprayer because it is the newest product i have bought. Yep, I paid $8 for this cleaner. Certainly not something I would normally do. I'm a deal seeking coupon hording bargain shopper! But this sprayer looked so cool. And I liked that you don't have to continuously pump the cleaner out, like most other cleaning sprays. I do a lot of cleaning every day, so that means a lot of spraying and my hand starts to cramp and i have to switch and try to do it left handed. Well, no longer will i have that problem. Scrubbing bubbles Power spray is awesome! Just unlock the little slide on the side then point and shoot! Very cool!! Oh, and the smell is wonderful and fresh. Not toxic like many cleaners that make it hard for you to breath let alone clean in the same room as it. The sound is pretty cool too. Well, here are some pictures i took. Enjoy!
This Picture is of the dirtiest spot in my shower! Yes, I know gross! But i never saw it, a bottle of body wash sat there covering it. Anyways it's perfect to try out the new Extend-A-Clean!
This is me spraying. soo cool!
This is the SCRUBBING!! And it was soooo easy.
Rinsing the yuck off!!!
Look at it sparkle now! Its so clean and certainly a lot more sanitary.
My new favorite cleaner!

Well, I'm interested in doing product review. Like so many other people in the Blog-osphere. I'm not quite sure where start. Maybe just do a few reviews of products I have? But then where do I go from there? Who would I contact? How do I promote my blog? Wow... I have lot's of questions. Well, i'm sure lots of research will help in my search.
Wish me luck!

Here are pictures of my apartment.... Enjoy
oh, these pictures where taken with my cell phone because i cant seem to find the charger to my nikon. :(
This is my Dining room. Facing my daughters bedroom and my office/storage room. And the kitchen is off to the right.
This half of my dining room has two end tables serving as my desk in front of this window because that is where i get free internet!
Coming into my daughters room...
This is my office/Storage Room... Kinda messy right now.
Kitchen.
Living room... leads to master bedroom
This is the Master Bed Room.
And The Bathroom...
So, that is my home. there is the back porch/pantry but its a mess w/ our old mattress and box spring out there and odds and ends there need to be organized.
Well, thats it!

So i start my morning off waking up from a HORRIBLE dream about my husband trying to kill me! yup. crazy considering i love him to death. but oh well.. just a dream.
I get my daughter out of bed 7:35am and into the bath. She just sits there. I ask her why she isnt washing and she says there isnt enough water! i said lay down and get washed. i ended up having to yell at her for not listening. But she gets the job done, gets out and gets her cloths on i picked out while waking her up. I ask her what she wants for breakfast and proceed to make her a bowl of froot loops. She has eaten Froot Loops for the last week straight, and even had them for dinner tuesday night. The reason being is the 100th day of school was Tuesday and they made froot loop necklaces with (you guessed it) 100 froot loops. so she discovers she LOVES this cereal and now eats it every day. good thing i have a few boxes among the 20+ boxes of ceral in the pantry. The rest of the morning getting her ready, doing her hair and getting boots and coat on went well. Gets on the bus at 8:50. She is now gone and i have a MIGRAINE!!! yup. Good thing i have a prescription for it, so i pop a pill and now its 10:30am and im feeling great. I got the Laundry washed and now in the dryer, whole house vacumed, and picked up, tables washed, counters washed, litter box cleaned, beds made and dishes ready to be washed in the sink. So my day is started off rocky but doing better now.
When i let one of my kitties in from outside i see a package! yes im so happy. I had won EasyLunchbox System giveaway on GalTime! I was thrilled, I chose purple! and it came with a set of 4 containers!
I havn't used it yet, and will tell you how great it is when i do! Thank you Gal Time!
Much love, Misty

My daughter is extremly stubborn! I know what she dosent like and what she just dosent "want" to eat. Well when she seems to think that if she just says she dosent like it that i will give in and tell her its ok, eat something else. Well, not me! not this mother! she is forced to sit at the dining table till she either eats her meal or its bed time. then in the morning for breakfast she is sat at the table with left overs for the night before. she eventualy eats what she i given. Today she took 4 hours this morning. Now she is eating a sprinkle donut... happy camper!
what would you do?
your oppinion?

Darling husband is home for the weekend.
For those of you who dont know he is attending Tractor Trailor school. To get his CDL. Well, this school requires him to be about 70 miles from home 5 days out of the week, and home on the weekends.
Well, he got home Friday night about 7pm. I had dinner waiting on the table for him. I made a very yummy pot roast with mashed potatoes, peas, fresh dinner rolls, and macaroni and cheese. He enjoyed it, as did i and Darling Daughter. We spent the evening in each others arms, cuddling and darling daughter fighting me to get to daddy.
Saturday we visited family. I dont get allong with his mother so he drops me and darling daugter off at my fathers to visit while he goes to visit his father. I dont drive so the only time i see my father is when he takes me there. We visited for a few hours. Then husband come to pick us up and we went to walgreens because i wanted to get a few deals this week, but they had nothing in stock... so i grabbed some clearance and left. We went to Price Chopper to get some groceries for him to take back to school with him for the week, then went home to make dinner. He made dinner. Ricatta stuffed shells w/a shrimp sauce, ceasar salad and cottage cheese. very yummy. And we spent the evening reading our books while daughter played with a puzzle.
Today, Sunday. We are relaxing the morning away. Well, for the most part. i have already cleaned the kitchen and have 2 pans of macaroni and cheese in the oven; one for him to take back to school with him. and after those are done im making cookies, brownies and crumb cake for him to take with him as well. I dont want him getting hungry. This afternoon daughter has a birthday party to go to, and while she is at that husband and i are going to Target to see whats on clearance.
So, that would be out weekend.
i hope yall are having a wonderful weekend as well!!

This is a post about why "I" need a new mattress....
Well, it's really my daughter that needs a new mattress.
My husband and i just got a new one, and she is sleeping on a hand me down from her Aunt.
The mattress she is sleeping on is a foot shorter than the box spring. Because her aunt ordered the mattress and it was delivered, she knew it wasn't right but never called to have it fixed.
I would like m daughter to have a comfortable bed to sleep in.
Thanks for the opportunity!!

So, today i get a call from my daughters counselor.
Of course they have my husbands phone number on file so leave a voice message on his phone for me to call her back.
She called his phone at 1:45pm, i dont know about this call until almost 3pm.
I try calling the number and keep getting a busy signal and a voice mail.
Eventualy i get through to the counselor who say she is with students and will call me back.
So i wait sooo nerveously, and worried for what she could possibly be calling about.
Things running through my head, did i say the wrong thing to her, am i a bad mom.
And for those of you wondering, yes i have spanked her on the bum. only in very rare occations. and yes i know its not right... and most people say its abuse. but its how i was raised and it works.
Anyways. she calls back. Tells me that skie has been crying in school. and that she had cried on the bus this morning. So i tell her she has been emotional lately because daddy is gone to school 70 miles away. And there has been a lot of stress at home since daddy got laid off from work. She is also adjusting and growing and i have had to yell at her a lot recently but she has overcome that period for now and is doing well. So she says, ok, i just wanted to let you know she has been very emotional. I say thank you. And that i will talk to her when she gets home to see what is wrong. and we say bye.
So, now i am waiting for her to get home in about the next 10 min. and will talk with her to see what is bugging her and help her over come the emotions.
-Misty
UPDATE:
Talking to a 5yr old about emotions and what not is difficult. She says that she was crying because i yelled at her this morning for getting snow all over her jeans. and that she cries at school because her friends are mean some times. I guess she is just really emotional. Im not quite sure how to help her with this. but i will continue to talk to her and try to understand what's going on.

So, we ordered a new mattress.
Got it from a place called Mattress Express.
Well, we paid a little over $300 for a queen set.
It was delivered today, and the guy was alone. He was supposed to deliver it upstairs and take out the old bed set. Nope he left the new set on the porch!
I called my husband to tell him this and he calls them saying they where supposed to deliver it upstairs and out with the old. They tell him that that wasnt the agreement.
I was with him when we ordered it! and i heard everything said. I even told him we lived upstairs. That i would be home, and husband will be away at school.
My husband tells them to come back out here and deliver it the right way and take the old set. They tell him, its been delivered and thats it!! So my darling husband is going to call The Better Business Berau of NY to complain about this business. Which from what i have heard isnt the first time they have been in trouble. So, we will see where this goes!
Thanks for reading.
