Look into insurance coverage for things like washable incontinence pads, depends, or check sheets too. Insurance should have a book of what all they provide, otherwise you could call your insurance sales person and find out, even if they are poor they’re probably still our benefits available to you if you talk to a social worker. 💕 God bless you I spend many hours taking care of my mom(and four children as a betweener millennial), it’s pretty exhausting, I could use some prayers, I’ll be praying for you too.

@PendalMarks do you also support the stores that have staff checking your receipts before they let you exit? what if they also wanted you to empty your pockets and open your purse? Do you think that this is an effective deterrent to shoplifting? I'm curious. by accusing the DT Corp of understaffing which in turn results in messy stores, you are absolving DT customers of any responsibility they have to behave as humans with manners and not wild monkeys, and to be respectful of DT staff and other customers. That absolution of responsibility - or the lack of consequences for bad behavior only results in worse and more instances of bad behavior. It won't be until our society once again holds ourselves accountable for our own actions as well as encouraging our families, friends and neighbors to be accountable for their actions, as well, that we can go out with expectations of excellent service, clean and well stocked retail outlets, safe streets, etc. That won't happen if people don't change but DT does hire one or even two sadly underpaid, unenthusiastic employees who make it obvious to everyone that they would rather be anywhere else than working at DT. But ofc, that's just mho.

I love using the little rinestones that are normally for nails on craft projects instead. I can sometimes even find Chrome powder in those areas as well and while there isn't a lot in them, the normal prices for chrome powder on line is crazy. If you do miniture painting or just want to gild a frame with just a little bit of silver chrome, its actually the perfect amount. Also adding Coconut milk and a little spice to Ramen plus some frozen veggies and you have a really awesome fast and simple meal on a budget for when your rushing around. I just want to say, please be kind to those who work in these stores even if the place might be a mess. Sometimes its because the store is not getting enough hours or they don't have enough workers. It isn't always because the workers aren't doing their job, sometimes its cause so much is put on their shoulders that they can't finish everything they are supposed to do.

Here is a couple more tips: • Use the reacher grabber bar in your garden. I recently used mine to bring stems of my raspberry bush closer and to hold onto the stems as I picked the berries • get some picnic table cloth weights and clip them onto the bottom of your large sheets and towels when you hang them on a clothes line, in order to prevent them from wrapping around the clothes line. This is not a foolproof idea, especially on seriously windy days. But you can clip on multiple weights to each item depending on how windy it is

I cleared out a small drawer by doing this, giving me more room in an already small kitchen. I also put a peg board by the door for keys. A second tip for space saving is to take a dollar tree napkin holder and some strong-ish magnets. Put the magnets on the fridge, put the napkin holder on the magnets, and instant mail holder.

Kathryn ... I absolutely LOVE the "Pressed Flower" DIY ... I just added the pressed flowers from Amazon to my wish list a few days ago to do a mason jar decoupage lantern DIY from another KZbin channel ... now I want to find those frames & make several of them, too. I have a bay window above my sink in the kitchen & that would be a great addition {also my mama's birthday is coming up & she would love that, too}!! Thank you for the inspiration!! Have a BLESSED day!!

I like to buy the counter top paper towel holders and put them in my bathrooms with some extra rolls of toilet paper (each one holds three rolls). Saves valuable real estate if you have small bathrooms.

Use a pair of plier and twist the zip ties until they fall off. It’s nice and smooth.

Katherine I actually use the doggie nail clippers in the kitchen. When I make kabobs for my family I will use the clippers to shorten the skewers a little to fit inside our Ninja foodie grill. It’s really easy compared to my kitchen scissors. (yes I grill outside without cutting them down but sometimes weather doesn’t allow for outdoor grilling)

I now keep my toilet paper on the top shelf in our bathroom, and my "grabber" stays in the corner of the powder room when I need to get a roll down....thanks to you! I like to use shaving cream to shine up my faucets and handles, and any other chrome items in my house. I have also mixed children's paint with shaving cream and my grandchildren finger paint onto poster boards. AND, I will admit, I have found some treasures in messy DT stores scoring items that were out of place, too!!

Love watching your videos. I've been doing diy's for years and there are always new ideas we can pick up or improve on. I also love upcycling clothes, furniture, decorations. Anything that can be reuse. My grandmother taught me that, just because something is made for one thing, doesn't mean you can't make it into something else. I'm doing the same with my granddaughter. It's so much fun. Thank you for sharing. 😊 Blessings 😊

The pear soap definitely works for eyebrows. However, in the summer the heat and your sweat can make it get into your eyes!
@traceydunlapАй бұрын
@JenaAnnissa I was wondering about that part! As soon as the sun hits me I'm sweating like hog! I thought about the soap rolling off of my face, getting sudsy, rolling into my eyes, lol! I noticed she didn't have to use much, but it came to mind!😆
@Victoria-pz9dvАй бұрын
Yes! I live in a brutally hot climate and immediately thought of soap dripping into my eyes. NOOO! Sadly, my brows have been fairly sparse after chemo, but I used to use clear mascara because it's designed to be around the eyes.

I use the DT piper cleaners instead of the zip ties for garlands and other things. That way you can undo them very easily without cutting and they’re reusable, unlike zip ties!❤

FYI we can't use efferent in our toilets because we have a septic tank. It kills bacteria and that's what you need in the septic tank.

I love the pressed flower suncatchers and the wallpaper for lining drawers. I use Efferdent for cleaning vases. Drop the tablet in the vase, add water and let it effervesce. Then rinse. For narrow vases snap the tablet in half and drop it in the vase.

For the tote bag pillow, I use velcro and keep the handles just stuff them in the pillow. That way I can still use it as a tote bag, and the velcro serves as closure for the bag. The one you showed could be painted with some watered down acrylic paint or markers to zhuzh it up a bit.
