Thing #1 and Thing #2

Larah is down for the night, Katie Jane and Lucas are watching a movie in the playroom and Justin, Matthew, and Cayla are at our friend's house swimming. Tim is sitting in his Lazyboy, finishing a bowl of Dryer's ice cream (similar to BlueBell) and watching a movie. I am exhausted... but I don't want to go to bed and I don't want to watch a movie...so here I am. My mind is incapable of coming up with great things to blog and my imagination is out of order. So I will share with you fellow bloggers two things recently added to our home. Two things that are very simple, yet they have brought me such happiness that I must not keep them to myself.

Thing #1: A shower caddy purchased at our local Home Depot for just under $20. I know, how exciting can a shower caddy be? Let me tell you. I have never personally owned one. Now I do and I love it. We have 7 people showering daily. With seven people showering comes several different shower items. We have 3 bars of soap, 2 bottles of facial scrub, 3 kinds of shampoo and conditioner, cups, and toys. Oh yeah, 4 bottles of Bath and Body Works body wash...I have to pamper myself. I am sure there are items I am forgetting. But with this new handy-dandy shower caddy all is organized. No more dropped, broken bottles and no more "Dang its" because of crushed toes. Life is so good!

Thing #2: Three white laundry baskets purchased at our local Wal-Mart for about $3 a piece. And just why were these purchased? Yes, laundry. Justin's laundry, Matthew's laundry and Cayla's laundry. A friend of mine shared with me how her older children do their own laundry. I thank God for such friends. Because of Lori and her wisdom, my older children are now doing their own laundry. I can't believe how much time this saves me. Like I stated before...Life is so good!

Well that is about all I have for tonight. I hope that maybe my simple yet life changing ideas might be helpful to you. Let me know.
