Or are you like me and wish that nudity was never in the dictionary so there was no such thing as clothes because everytime you turn around there is more to wash.

I have a "clear" shower curtain that has those darn "water spots" on it. There is no mold or dirt, JUST those darn water spots. I tried spray window cleaner, but that doesn't clean them.

ANY suggestions???

My son called today (married and long out of the house), asked what I was doing, told him cleaning, scrubbing, etc. He said "Mom, your life would be alot easier if you got rid of the dogs or Dad"!! LOL!! I told I couldn't choose right now, don't know who I love more--The old labs or the old Dad!! Then Dad came home and walked over my clean floor with muddy boots--it starting to get easier to pick!!!!!!

I have a self wax floor and never put anything on it . Just cleaned it with Windex and water. But it doesn't look as shinny after 5 years. I thought about using Mop & Glow but I am afraid of ruining it or getting a wax build up.

We are trying to eliminate the odor that comes from our cupboard that holds our plastic garbage can. We have tried baking soda, coffee beans and stickup air deodorizer. The smell seems to have permiated into the wood.

My puppy chills on my bed with me sometimes, and she had a bit of an "accident" in the sense of she was stareing right at me, and now there's a nice big urin stain on the comforter. Somehow I don't think throwing it in the washing machine is a good idea, so how do i clean it?

Thanks much.

I know lighter fluid will do the trick, but since I don't smoke... what is the next best thing to remove this mess? It's all over a glass door of a display cabinet.

My roommates have these people from minnesota come and stay on our couch...at least one house guest a month...I don't mind except the last one had no job and was a couch hopper and stunk like a homeless man. I don't want to be rude but I don't trust most people they invite to visit. What should I do?

I have a VERY tight budget, and there are 2 of us (my boyfriend and I) that share this room. We have a lack of organizational skills, and we are not very motivated in the laundry aspect. Once clothes get washed, they are thrown on the floor.. clean pile vs. dirty pile. Y'know that kind of thing.

As well, we do not have a suitable dresser, we are waiting for a friend to deliver a dresser. Besides that, what can I do to organize my room? To keep it clean? We don't have a lot of time to clean, and anything we can do to keep it clean once its clean is helpful.

Lastly, just a quick list of the basic stuff in our room:
bed, desk, shelf, small dresser, closet

Links to any websites with cheap organizational items in Canada are appreciated as well, but not required =low budget

So,there's suddenly green paint over our mailbox stand. Who knows how it happened.

My question is-Should I paint over it? Or should I try to get it off.... somehow? And if so,how?!

Thanks!

I am looking to buy the best toilet paper money can buy. I am tired of that cheap stuff. I don't like it when I wipe my privates. I get pee or poo on my fingers/hand. It is like the moisture goes through the paper then on to my hands. That just makes me feel oh so nasty. I tried that Angel Soft, but it was not any good. What kind do you like?
