I'm with both of you guys! I also work at a hospital, in an office FULL of germaphobs... So I wind up being the weirdo because I don't use that stuff at all (I'm not in direct patient care either, but when I was I wouldn't use that either. Just good hand-washing techniques, which seemed to have worked for the most part for over one hundred years).

I think we have all been buying into the mass marketing about how we live in such a germ laden world and need to sterilize it, which is honestly the worst thing we could do!! Prelim studies say this is also why allergies are also on the rise...what are we doing to ourselves?

I also do that but with a bit "more" added to it. I guess I just can't leave well enough alone...

If that blankie is as silky soft as it looks, I'm all ears to hear more about it! And maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll be hearing about how it will be coming to me soon? :-)

I would so love to have one of these! I have been wanting to purchase multiple reusable bag for groceries, general shopping, et cetera. But, because I want multiples, I feel it is somewhat cost prohibitive for me right now. Recieving one for the holidays would be a great way to start realizing my goal!

Ok, I think I watch way too many "help me sell my home" shows on HGTV, but I can look at these pics and just HEAR the real estate agents on those shows in my head!

So, I'll pass on those voices to you! (Aren't you guys lucky? LOL!)

1) Not everyone has the same style as you, so do away with the stuff that makes it too personalized. Make the spaces more like a "blank slate" so that potential buyers could see their own things in there. If there is too much stuff taking up space, they can't picture what their stuff would look like in the space.

2) Take out all of your stuff that is stored in closets and other storage spaces (except what you absolutely CANNOT live without) and leave those areas open during showings so that they can see these areas: these should be selling points for potential buyers.

3) Fresh paint and great lighting also helps! Or so say those shows!

Maybe these ideas can help you sell your houseboat!

I think some classic sugar cookies with my son's decorations would be just the thing to spread some holiday cheer to co-workers, friends, and family. Plus, I love snowmen!

I haven't seen any like that, but I did see some at the big box stores made of foam that hold pics.

I luckily have to only go guest-ing on Thanksgiving day, but I have to work the rest of the weekdays and go to my college classes! Not much of a break for me, that's for sure!
