Thank you 2000 Flushes for sponsoring this giveaway and the products listed below to facilitate my review and thank me for my time.  As always, all opinions are 100% my own.


Last month I shared a giveaway not to be missed: a V.I.P. trip to the ACM Honors in Nashville, TN. If you haven't had a chance to enter, there is still time. Just go HERE  to read my post about and follow the link to enter. 

Today I want to share another giveaway with you, but first my review of 2000 Flushes Blue plus bleach.


About 2000 Flushes Blue plus Bleach:

Kill bacteria and keep your bowl sparkling, sanitary and deodorized with blue toilet bowl cleaner.
2000 Flushes Blue Plus Bleach kills 99.9% of bacteria and continuously cleans so you can easily keep your toilet bowl stain-free and deodorized.

2000 Flushes Blue Plus Bleach uses the combined power of bleach and blue detergents to clean and freshen, keeping your water a sparkling-blue for up to 4 months. You can learn more about 2000 Flushes by visiting their website. 


My Review:

I don’t like cleaning toilets, but then again, who does? Anybody… anybody saying I do?
So reading that 2000 Flushes Blue plus bleach helps keep one of the busiest and yucky-est seats in the house clean for up to 4 months was a huge selling point to me. 

2000 Flushes is a 2 pack system, one blue with detergents and deodorizers and one white with bleach. They are easy to use, just plop them in the tank of your freshly scrubbed toilet and flush.

With the very first flush I noticed that this product doesn’t turn my toilet bowl super blue, it’s more of an Aqua color.  Also, the water in the tank doesn’t really stay Aqua in between flushes; you only see the color while you flush which I contribute to the bleach.

Speaking of bleach, don’t worry about your bathroom smelling of bleach with every flush.  2000 Flushes blue plus bleach leaves a light, clean scent in the air that is practically undetectable. I sniffed for the purpose of this review.   Since you can’t really see or smell this product in action, please remember to close the lid so Fido doesn’t drink this water.

So far, I am pleased with this product would recommend it. The toilet bowl is still clean after a week and a half of use. Only time will tell if it really lasts for 4 months, but I’m betting it does. If I find it stops working before then, I will update my review.

The Back to School Countdown Begins

in , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Monday, July 08, 2013

Happy Monday to you! Did you have a great fourth of July weekend? I hope so.  

We had a most excellent weekend, taking a less-is-more approach to it all.  We didn’t plan a thing, except to be together, cook good food and have fun.

This approach worked so well, that we all agreed that our 4 day weekend was like a much needed vacation.  Our souls needed this break in the action and we aren’t even a fast track family. 

It’s a good thing that we had this respite, because now there are only 32 days left of summer vacation. Oh my. The powers that be (the school board here in middle TN) have decided that a start date in the middle of some of the hottest days of summer would be A-Okay. 


bus

Pitching a fit is a waste of time. Planning now for a smooth back to school transition in our home is a much safer bet. 



Here is my plan of action:


1. Start the bedtime routine change now.

 If you are like us and take a more lenient summer bedtime routine, it’s time to nip it in the bud.  Don’t wait until there is a week or two before school starts or everybody will be tired and crabby all day.  Parents: this means we have to go to bed earlier too. No more late night TV.

2.  Set a dinnertime.

Make sure dinner time is early enough that food is digested before bedtime, but not so early that your family has powered through what they ate and need a snack right when they should be brushing their teeth. This is especially tricky for me with a growing teen and tween. They are always hungry! (Yes, girls are always hungry too at this stage.) I aim for 6:30pm to 6:45pm.

3. Clean out their closets.

 Do this early, if you haven’t already AND make them try on every piece they want to keep. With my girls, I go one step further and ask them to see how many outfits they can make. This is a true sanity saver when you are back to school  clothes shopping and they are looking at all the cute jeans when you know they really need tops.

4. Clean out or prep our drop zones.

Every family is different, with a different system in place, but I have found that having the kids place their backpacks, incoming papers, permission slips etc. in specified places daily works for us.
For instance, backpacks must be cleaned out, repacked for the next day and be sitting by the front door for the morning. Period.

5. Listen now.

School can be stressful with some years more stressful than others. Both my daughters happen to be entering a grade that is particularly stressful: 9th and 5th respectively. You can probably relate to the freshman nerves, but may be wondering about little 5th graders. Trust me: this is the year the cattiness and cliques start.  I have set aside private time and chatted with both my girls about going back to school.

They were very illuminating conversations that helped me map out this first plan of action, but I know it won’t be the last this year.  I still need to plan my back to school supply shopping strategy and then there is this biggie to think about:

there is only 169 days until Christmas. 



When do your kids go back to school?

Weekly Photo Challenge: Nostalgic

If I could go back in time, just for a day or two, I would go back here. When both my girls fit on the same seat and gladly shared their days and ring pops. This was a magical, happy time in a home we all adored.
