Mops, lips, cars and more

If you are a crazy mad iPhone user, like myself, you should already know that Friday was a joyous celebration of the 4S. 

If you are like me and do not qualify for an upgrade quite yet, don't freak out.  Go and update your phone with the latest software sync and you will have a pleasant surprise.  New stuff-- and it's way sweet.

If you are one of those stinkin' luckies that actually got a 4S this weekend-- congratulations.  I'm officially jealous!  Boo whaaah!

I also have a list of things you might be interested in that I have recently discovered.

I am a huge fan of the swiffer-- anything.  I have the vac, the mop, the duster, the towels-- all great inventions.  What I don't like is buying all the replacement towels, mops, filters ect.  A few weeks ago I stumbled on this...



I am in love with the O Cedar Pro-mist.  The beauty is, the head is washable and the solution is whatever you want to fill it with.  So if you are an alcohol and water person, or a Mister Clean, or even a Pinesol person-- it doesn't matter. Awesome mop freedom!  Free yourselves my mopping friends-- BE FREE!

I have to admit, I'm not a lipstick person.  I don't like the way it tastes.  (No I don't eat it, it just migrates by itself.)  Then my lips dry out and I get those lipstick crease lines.  It's just no worth it to me.  Then on the occasions that I need to wear it, I end up feeling very self conscious.  So I found this...

It's lip stain by Cover Girl.  It doesn't taste AT ALL.  It's like a marker for your lips.  It stays on really well.  It's my new found love in make-up.  If you are not used to seeing yourself in lipstick I recommend trying the nude shade.  It still does a nice subtle color and it's not as shocking for your brain.

Lastly, I stumbled upon a golden nugget the other day.  We were riding in the car as a family, sipping on some smoothies, and one of my kids "dropped" their smoothie all over the car.  It wouldn't have been that bad but the said child kept wiping it around the car to try to "clean" it off.  We pulled over at one of those car wash places with the shampooers and vacuums to clean up.  While we were there we decided to let the kids try a self wash stall for the van.  It was awesome.  They all took turns using the guns to wash the van.  Sudsing, rinsing, it was so cool.  They thought it was so fun and I got a clean van.  Win win.  That doesn't happen too often.  It was a serious bonus.  So next time you need a quick fun activity for the kids, try the self car wash.  It's an adventure.

What's your latest favorite?  I'd love to hear about it.

Sounds like you're all set for the RS activity tomorrow night with your list of favorites. =) I still need to come up with mine.

I am SO excited about this mop that you're talking about. I love my Swiffer, but I know what you mean about the replacement parts plus the handles of mine keep breaking. I really want to try this mop. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the tip on the lip stain. I was interested in it from ccommercials but didn't trust the advertising. but im a believer now to give it a try. Ps I'm also not fond of lip stick so this hopefully will work awesome

You should write a book. It would be a hit.

Thanks for the tip on cover girl lipstick. I have 5 $8 off coupons and Rite Aid has a deal this week, spend $50, get $15 back. I have a $5 up reward, so I will spend $5, get $15 back, and then have $50 of make up. Love it!!!
