Prime Purchases in July

 Somehow I thought I hadn't bought anything from Amazon in July (other than our Subscribe and Save items) but I was wrong. We did buy a lot of Jet ski, car, and other vehicle parts... but I didn't really think that would interest my readers at all. Luckily, once I went back through my purchased items I did find that I had bought quite a few things for the house.  



For the kitchen:

My favorite Tupperware bowl has a crack in the lid and I was so overjoyed to find the exact same sized one on Amazon! 



My girlfriend had this foaming hand wash at her beach house rental this summer and I just loved the scent so much.



We use a lot of baking soda; especially in the summer since I use it for cleaning our towels and keeping them smelling fresh. I finally decided to just order a huge bag of it. 


For the basement:

We bought a second robot vacuum for the basement floor. 



We bought a mini fridge too.


For Ian's new crafting area (we had to move him out of the basement and into our utility closet).  

A tablecloth to keep the table from being covered in modeling paint.



A mat to protect the floor.



A wastebasket.

    Oo the soap sounds great! I love snagging baking soda at Costco for laundry.

      It's amazing what a little baking soda will do for the laundry.

    I couldn't see the scent but I do love Mrs. Meyers hand soap. They have the fall scents in stores already!

    I thought Tupperware was for life. If there is anything broken, or something like that, you get a new one for free.

      Yes... but you have to know a representative and go through them to have any pieces replaced. My mom tried to replace one of her lids a few years ago and it was really quite difficult. I have had that bowl for well over 20 years so I felt like I had definitely gotten my money's worth on it and didn't mind buying a new one.

    I love Mrs. Meyer's products. My favorite scent so far is basil.

      I have one under my crafting chair too and it is such a floor saver.

      I had never seen that scent before either and don't think I realized they made foaming hand soap.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Prime Purchases in April 2025

Image
 It's the first Monday of the month and time for Prime Purchases. I didn't buy all that much this month; just 2 orders!  My biggest purchases were Evan's textbooks for next year (which I'll share later in the spring when I show what he's studying for his senior year). I did order a few things for the rest of the family and bought a couple of "just for fun" stuff for me. My husband loves these click belts but his old one was all worn out so he asked me to get him another one.   I bought some of these large command hooks for Alec's dorm room for next year.  I was told we were out of these probiotics.   I bought myself this National Parks color by number book and this National Parks word search book.   And finally I bought myself these earrings- - I LOVE them!

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Currently in May

It's the first Monday of the month and time for the currently link up with Jennifer.  This month we'll be talking about what we're currently loving, looking forward to, leaving behind, letting go of, and looking at.   Loving: Having whole family dinners now that Alec is back home. We also had a lovely belated birthday party for Ian this past weekend.  Alec has been planting seeds, we sorted through all the totes he brought home from college and already started re-packing for next year. He's back at work and settling into being home with us. Looking forward to: This is the time of year my attention turns to our yard, deck, and patio. I am looking forward to eating outside and soaking in the sunshine. I also can't wait for the flowers to start blooming-- we have some early blooms like forsythia already.  Leaving behind: I sure hope we're leaving all the ice and snow behind us for spring and summer; we did have a couple of small storms in April.  Letting go of: Al...

Highlights and Favorites Each Day in April

Image
 Oh April... you were mostly a very stressful month with all sorts of not so fun problems (from Alec's struggles to get the classes he needs/any dorm room at all for next semester to a state tax audit to assorted family health and housing problems [none of the 5 of us living in the house but close family none the less]). Throw in some not so fun weather, like snow, and I was ready to throw in the towel completely by the 15th. That said most of these stressors were small and manageable and there really was some good to be found in every day even if I did have to dig a little deeper for it than normal. It sure did go out with a bang though! 1. So thankful for our generator; we needed it to cook dinner along with the grill. Up at nearly 2:30 am with my mind whirling about anything and everything, Evan found out his class was canceled after driving to school but we made the best of it and went hiking instead (after he picked me up). We lost power all afternoon from a downed tree and I ...
