Just FYI, diluting 70% alcohol makes it completely ineffective as sanitizer. 70% is the perfect percentage to be effective. Adding that much water cuts that in half. If you’re going to use 70%, don’t add water. It’s not that expensive. I use Everclear Vodka because it’s the right percentage and much less “fumey.” It’s pretty expensive, but I just use it for my hands, so it lasts awhile. If you buy the 90% isopropyl, you want to cut it with water because 90% is actually too high to be effective because it will evaporate too quickly. The dilution for bringing 90% to 70%, is approximately 4 parts 90% to 3 parts water.

[@kelliethorne1200]

And you have to let it sit for a bit to be effective.

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

Thank you so much! I didn't know that ☺️

@@kelliethorne1200 Yes, but actually not all that long, as opposed to bleach, etc. 70% alcohol begins working immediately, and kills within 30 seconds to a minute.

I think 60% is fine for most things but 70 % is more effective for viruses (COVID).

Great tips! We have a composting toilet and keep a bottle of 1/2 white vinegar and 1/2 water to spray and wipe down after every use. In five years we’ve had zero odor in the bathroom.

[@donnabacon4681]

Great hacks/ideas! I think the light switches with the flip are also sold at Dollar Tree (oe they used to be, because I bought a few years ago). OK! When I had my 34'er, I would first drain the black tank, then the gray, as the water from the gray flowed through the black. Then, using my own water hose, hooked up the the outside faucet, to clean out the tanks. Just turn on the water and let it run through your tanks. It never ceases to amaze me, peoples lack of courtesy and just common sense! 🤯

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

Come to think of it, I think I've seen them at Dollar Tree as well, thanks!

My mom uses tiny command hooks with bungie cords on the outside of the cupboards to keep them closed on travel days. And on non-travel days she uses the hooks for hanging washcloths. Works like a charm.

Nice video. I use environmentally safe products from an American company and our hand gel is so nice. For my bathroim cabinets I bought little toothbrush tolders that have nice grip bottom on them. I lucked out at Homegoods. YOGA MATS are AMAZING for your cabinet and fridge. I use glass dishes and cups and NOTHING moves in my cabinets. IKEA- If you have never been to Ikea, well let me tell you, their containers are in ALL my small narrow cabinets. And they are cheap enough but tough. Thanks for your hacks! Safe travels!❤❤

@MakingMyAbodeOTR I can take pictures of my storage solutions if you are interested.

A really good way to remove scuff marks is to use a plain and simple eraser. Use a white one though (not coloured) :) also if your shoes ever create scuff marks on your tile floors or wooden floors. Use your shoes to rub it off. A tennis ball also works :)

We always wipe our shower & doors down, each & every time, very clean!! All of our shower & bathroom things are in their own baskets, easy off counter & onto shower mat, on dry shower floor!!

Excellent video ! I bought 25 little spray bottles from Amazon and fill them with 70% isopropyl alcohol - I have them every where - I use it as hand sanitizer, to clean glasses, iPhone, iPad, computer and tv screens - I think I might be addicted! I bought shelf/drawer liner from ikea, ▶️ I have a stacking washer dryer and an upright freezer right beside it. The top of the freezer is a handy spot to storage laundry soap etc. the not handy part is the vibration of the washer and dryer would cause container to ‘walk backwards’ until they fell behind the freezer - using the liner from ikea stops them from moving at all - amazing stuff

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

There is some space behind the washer/dryer where things could fall. Also the back of the washer/dryer faces the front cap, so when you hit the brakes, things slide back. The silicone mat is working great! I don't have to do anything extra on travel day 😊

Hi, l have a question about your first hack. Would those bars hold much weight like soap shampoo if you put one sideways so you can put stuff on them and then put one like you have to stop stuff falling?

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

@michelegrice4938 Are you thinking of using one to create a shelf to hold things and then another in front to keep stuff from falling? They are pretty secure but I wouldn't recommend that just because that is not what their designed for. If you don't have an existing shelf you might consider a shower caddy or a basket that has really strong suction cups. I've seen some on Amazon that people seem to really like.

[@michelegrice4938]

@MakingMyAbodeOTR yes l was thinking of that. Suction cup things won't stick on my shower walls for some reason. It's a weird plastic type material.

Lots of good tips. I've seen the Blackstone "Wind Guard" before, but I forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder. Next to my Splindide I have a shoe hanger (it's in a closet) so everything I need for washing is in the shoe hanger pockets. You could put a rod over the washer and hang some storage on that, leaving some room to hang damp clothes. I put a shower curtain rod over the top of the shower and hang damp items from that. I use Earth Breeze soap (I told you before I put in half a sheet for a load directly on the dirty clothes) and everything comes out clean. Earth Breeze is also much easier to store. What is all that stuff in the baskets on the washer for? Am I missing something?

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

Thank you! You have some great ideas and I appreciate you sharing ☺️ I am definitely going to put a shower curtain rod in the shower for hanging wet stuff, I forgot all about your suggestion before😀 As far as the baskets on my washer and dryer...in the large white one I keep my laundry soap, dirty cleaning rags, and my vacume attachments. In the smaller green basket I keep a pump bottle that has laundry soap, a bottle of bleach, a bottle of vinegar that I use in place of fabric softener for some items, a toothbrush for stain removal as well as a laundry soap bar for stains, oh and the battery and charger for my cordless vacuum sits in there to charge. I have considered using the soap sheets, I am peticular about my laundry and my machine...🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ so not sure if I'd like it. I do have concerns about it gunking up the drum 😬I wish I could get a sample to try out but it seems companies don't do that too much anymore.

Omg your shower is so big, I have my toilet and sink in the same area and a solid plastic door

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

@lindabourketempleton4040 Right?! We love it! When my oldest and her boyfriend come to visit they always say omg your shower is so SMALL 😂, Always just say ...it gets the job done!

FYI, feedback to consider for future videos. I almost stopped watching during the shower curtain bit when you spliced in clips of gratuitous physical violence. Don't misunderstand, I have nothing against violence in context in movies. It was just so unexpected and jarring, it was an unpleasant intrusion into a pleasant day. After the second clip, I was still curious so I decided "three strikes and you're out!" Clips like the Calgon one can be funny, but please don't use violent or disgusting ones with no warning. You're driving away viewers who would otherwise love your videos!

@CritterKeeper01 Thanks for the tip. 👌 The point of the absolutely hilarious (and insanely VIOLENT 🙄) clip, from the movie 50 First Dates is that it portrays the feelings of the shower curtain sticking to you. Makes you want to beat it up! 😆 When I make my videos I always want them to be helpful but also entertaining. I try to make them something I would enjoy watching while also keeping my audience in mind. I can't please everyone, and if I tried it would just be an epic fail. I fully accept that some folks won't like what I do, like me, or my lifestyle. If I changed the way I make my videos because of a few folks who are extremely sensitive and /or don't understand comedy, they'd be a bit boring 😴 and I'd be doing my audience and myself a disservice. I can't help but wonder if the few who have made their feelings known here, have the same feelings about the violence inflicted on the unborn in this country every day. 🤔

Yeah, I don’t see a problem with your fan lid at all actually I didn’t see your problem before you made the PVC tool lol I was already thinking let’s see if you have to make it like something that you the mini blinds with or something like that lol and then you did better ha ha That seems like a stupid high amount of money to fix such a small thing that requires so much plus to make the little fancy buttons work sure let it just wear out and then get a good old fashion crank one to replace it and stick it to the energy Empire that makes a fortune off. Everybody’s need to have everything automated Course, you know what happens for every action there’s an equal and opposite reaction or non-reaction so translation everything that we let computers and automatic machines do for us in slaves us just a little bit more to be permanently inept on healthy because we don’t do any exercise, even if it’s just something so medial as the grasping and twistingaction that our hands are happy to do for us. Take a visit to a skilled nursing facility and see all of the sadness and emptiness there is when you cannot even grasp your own zebra and pull it up or get up out of your chair when your pants are wet.

I know that this is not related to this video, but I do really how that you will answer me. My husband and I are considering selling our home and buying a 5th wheel. We are trying to figure out how much it cost on average to stay in a park per month. Can you give me an estimate on what you have paid? I would be happy to share with you my email. Thank you so much.

[@MakingMyAbodeOTR]

@icpinkqueen I know this is probably not the answer you want...but, it depends. 😬 It depends on what part of the country you're in, if you're going to be stationary or traveling, and what type of campground you want to stay in. We have paid anywhere from $250 a month (staying 3 weeks at Thousand trails with our annual camping pass which is so cheap, $1,250 a year flat rate no commitment, and 1 week at a basic campground which was $250) to $2400 a month. Yikes I know. With our situation , we move every week and my husband's job sends us all over. we don't have much of a say where we go so that's why such a huge price fluctuation. If you're in a high sought after area like Charelston SC you'll pay more. I hope this helps! If you need more details, you can email me. I'd be happy to help. 😊 [e-mail]

What are you complaining about the editing? I don't understand what's wrong with her editing

@@heatherjolly8389 The editing is good except the silly old movie clips that are not adding to her message. In my opinion of course.
