We are home again for snow--no school for us today! SEVEN total snow days since January! WOW. I think this is a record for Kentukiana, no wait, I know it is a record! The news people have stated it about a billion times lately! Funny.
J-Bird and I built an igloo. We went sledding. We got muddy. We snow-cleaned carpets. Obe Wan played Minecraft. Sigh. J-Bird asked if I could use my Mommy power and get Obe Wan off the computer. Another large sigh. Some times it just isn't worth the fight....
About the carpets---so, I was looking up ways to clean area rugs since we have so many around here...and crazy enough, but the ladies in Scandanavia, take full advantage of their snow. You take your carpets out into the elements--let them adjust to the temperature--cover them with a fine, powdery white snow, sweep on, let set for 15 minutes. The ammonia in the snow and the wet, freezing temperatures set into the carpet without getting them wet. Shake them up and bring them in your house. WOW. They actually smell nice and all the stains are gone?!?! Honest Abe. It worked. A score for Pinterest today! (If I would have looked this up in two-three more days I couldn't have done it. And who says there isn't a God??? That was a God-thing! Woo-Hoo Pinterest and the Lord!
Picture blast:

Thank goodness for John Deere. Now, I will be buying snow attachment for our
JD tractor---this will ensure NO snow like this ever again! |
