Hi mylotters,
Well last night my little boy was off to my ex'x house, for the next couple of weeks.. Last night I felt rather lonely.. First time in years that I have been home by myself; either had my son, my other half, other family or friends with me...Well thats over, loving it!!

When you are cleaning your house with men and/or children in the house... You can have an area completely cleaned up top to bottom.. white glove clean.. then turn around to do one thing and turn back around and said, I JUST CLEANED THAT!! A couple months ago I moved into my own place, it had been siting empty for over six months so there is a lot of dust and spider webs that need attention! Now I can get all of my cleaning project done... And even take a break without anything being moved so I can not find it later...LOL

Right now its break time, having some left overs, and go go juice.. coffeelol

With my cleaning I learned something new today... You know all of those mystery black strecks that you get on your white walls; and nothing seems to get them off.. I found a solution.. well my god mother told me that it was good for crayon mark.. The magic eraser from Mr Clean... Just takes water, and very little elbow grease... and the sponge or what ever you want to call it lasts quite awhile.. depending on the cleaning job.. well I am fixing on doing my whole house top to bottom.. so next week I will proably have to get to the store to get more... Just thought I would tell you all about my little discovery.. cuz I know whats it is like to have these marks on the walls.. Me personally it bugs the crap out of me!!! Especially when I can not get the damn spot off... Well off to check a couple other things on here then back to it...

Have a great weekend fellow mylottersthumbup

I live alone in a shack at the back of my brother's house and I have a computer with internet connection. My family has since moved back to my city but we are too poor to live in one house together. I am hoping to make an income from the internet.

I am sorry to hear that your family is too poor to live together.. I have believe that if there is a will there is always a way.. It just does not always come right away, so keep trying.. One day your family will all live together.. Just keep up your faiththumbup

Hello, dear. I hear ya loud and clear. I was proud of my grandson and his mom the other day.He enjoyed using the Eraser on some spots on the walls. Worked like a dream. I was amazed. They got into his room and cleaned it up till it shown. It was so nice and I made she they knew how nice I thought it looked. Then about three hours later I happened to go by the room again and it looked like a cyclone had touched down in there. I guess he had friends over. What ever happened to friends helping to clean up messes? That is another discussion.


myLot reputation of 89/100. sjvenden27 (655)   ranked 527 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

Yes cleaning is a never ending process, guess it is a part of life.. Unless you like living in a dirty home.. I would rather keep it clean; at least the best that I can do each day... I know that my house wont stay really clean for long.. at least I will be able to enjoy it for a couple weeks, unless my other have shows up..lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. celticeagle (15750)   ranked 481 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

I like a clean house but am not always a nut about it. I think you need to train your other half alittle better myself. LOL


myLot reputation of 89/100. sjvenden27 (655)   ranked 527 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

Thats funny... There are sometimes he does help around the house... Its just that does not happen that often.. and well it does not help that I do not ask, but at the same time if something looks like it needs to be done; I do not think I should have to ask.. But anyways that is a different topic all together.. Hey may be that will be my next topic...lol

Hey, don't go running silent and mad into the darkness. Let him know your feelings. Don't be silent. Just find a nice way to say it. With love and respect I really feel you can honor your situation and that he can and will as well.

Sounds as if you are on a roll! I love being alone in my place too...it is rare. Actually at this point, it is just me and one of my girls still here...it's nice. I have used those magic sponges also and yes...they do work well. Another trick for crayon is toothpaste....works like magic...try it. For ink...hairspray. Well, good luck with the cleaning and I hope you are listening to some good tunes as you go!happy


myLot reputation of 89/100. sjvenden27 (655)   ranked 527 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

Oh yeah have the tunes going and singing just to help pass the time!! Wow did not know about the toothpaste trick going to have to try that.. If not I will have to go get some hair spray, do not use it for my hair but I would definitely try it on the ink that I found.. But it was there when I moved in...


myLot reputation of 97/100. sid556 (18642)   ranked 112 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago

oh yes...just get a can of the cheap stuff..aquanet or something. Spray it on and let it set a minute or so and you can see it just dissolving the ink like magic.


myLot reputation of 89/100. sjvenden27 (655)   ranked 527 out of 32,950 in life  3 years ago
