What I've learned from the Internet

I've recently discovered the following two sites that have made a world of difference in my daily life. Thought I'd pass them on and maybe they'll help you too...

#1 - What I DIDN'T learn in Kindergarten...

With the dawn of round shoelaces came shoes that never stay tied. I've found the solution. A new way to tie shoes! AND the kids find it much easier to tie and, since they're not double knotted, they're easier to untie too! What more do you want?!?

Here's the link: http://www.freedomknot.com/index.html

Just a hint we discovered...to untie, pull both ends at the same time and it won't end in a knot...

#2 - How to clean your house without spending all day cleaning your house

True confessions time...I hate cleaning. I can always seem to find someting else to do, or reasons not to do it (I'm sure I just cleaned that a few days ago (day's...weeks...who's counting...)) or don't think I have time (I only have 15 minutes, definitiely not long enough to do any cleaning!) And on the excuses go.
Well I've found the key that works for me! This system generated by motivated moms.com tells me what I have to do each day and breaks it into tiny little pieces that I can "bite off and chew" when I have time. And it even comes with a spot for my checkmarks so I can relish in my accomplishments. I could go on and on explaining it but it's a lot easier for you just to head on over and check it out for yourself. It even allows you to download a 2 week demo to try before you buy (It's only $4.00 when you buy it half way throught the year!)
