I don’t know about your kids, but ours do not always get along the greatest. It’s nothing BIG, usually, but lots of little bickering. Who kicked who, who stole their toy, who gets to play Wii first, who gets to choose the music. Sometimes it’s enough to drive me crazy!! Netflix recognizes this struggle and has some great solutions!! They’ve come ... Read More »

The Perfect Smartphone for SAHM Bloggers: The HTC One M8 Review{or, “Why you shouldn’t let your husband pick a smartphone for you”}
I realize that it’s a little odd, giving a thorough review of a phone a couple years after its release, but this is a piece I’ve been meaning to write for a year and a half and gosh darn it, I’m just going to do an HTC One M8 review TODAY. The HTC One M8 is still for available at ... Read More »
Amazing Physical Activity Resource for Teachers – FREE
These days we are hearing so much about how little physical activity time kids are getting at school. It happens for a variety of reasons – whether it is an increased pressure to complete curriculum requirements, or an over-crowding issue, leaving little indoor gym space. Teachers are encouraged to do “DPA” – daily physical activity for about 15 minutes, but ... Read More »
The Perfect Spring Break Treat – Disney on Ice in #HamOnt
It’s been kind of a chilly and wet March break this year – much more pleasant than the very cold & snowy March break the last two years, but still, a little harder to find things to do. The weather this morning was looking up – 8 degrees and sunny – and then, just after lunch, the dark clouds rolled ... Read More »
#CloroxCanada Casts a Spell on Bathroom Germs with the ToiletWand
As you know, in December I started my new job as custodian of our church, which means that I spend about 15 hours a week vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, disinfecting, and scrubbing toilets. I am, therefore, no stranger to rolling up my sleeves and getting dirty. However, while I don’t scrubbing the floors and cleaning the kitchens, tackling the bathroom has ... Read More »
Print from Your Phone, Tablet, or Computer on this New Breed of Inkjet Printers: Epson EcoTank Review
Hi friends! About a month ago, I started hearing ads on the radio and seeing posts on Twitter about this new ‘game changing’ inkjet printer for homes. It’s been a while – 10 years, maybe?? – since I’ve heard ad spots for a printer, so I looked it up. The Epson EcoTank is an inkjet printer that has ink wells ... Read More »
Fuller House On Netflix February 26 #streamteam
As a kid growing up int he 90s, I was fairly limited in the number of shows I could watch. We didn’t have cable, and our parents were pretty strict about what we could and coudn’t watch. But one show that became a part of my childhood was Full House. I used to want to be DJ, with her great hair and cool ... Read More »
One New Year’s Resolution Every Busy Mom Should Make #StreamTeam
Traditionally, I abstain from making promises about drastic life changes on the eve of a New Year. I don’t like falling short of goals that I set for myself. I don’t like being disappointed in myself. Because, let’s face it – no matter how good the intentions, adding an extra ‘beneficial’ behaviours to an already busy day spells long-term failure ...

Hanging Framed Photos Without Nails: 3M Command Picture Hanging Strips & Hooks #FavouritesFriday
Hello friends, and Happy New Year! Several years ago, before we had children, my husband’s Christmas present to me was a wall of family photos – printed, framed, and arranged. I LOVED it – partly because it contained all of the people we love so dearly, but mostly because we’d been living in the apartment for a year already and ... Read More »
Combat Eczema & Other Sensitive Skin Issues with #PureHazelwood
Until 3 years ago, I never had any issues with my skin. Nothing. Ok, I had to moisturize a LOT, but that was pretty much it. And then, I had our daughter. And we ended up bottle feeding after 2 months. And I ended up hand washing bottles at least an hour a day…. which is when my eczema first ... Read More »
