I Love This Sh!t #2

Do you want people to sniff in appreciation as you walk by? [Stop it – get your mind out of the gutter.] Would you like for people to exclaim, “wow, you smell so nice!” when they give you a hug? [I mean it, there’s nothing dirty here.]

You do? Great!

Then get down to your local store and pick up a bottle of this good smelling, super easy to use laundry shit.




It’s from Method*, so it’s not going to poison you or anyone you love slowly to death while you smell great. Also, it’s fabric softener so your clothes will be hugable in more ways than just light, fresh-as-a-sunny-meadow smell.

Just toss your wet clothes in the dryer, spray it in there four (or 11) times, and let it run. Voila, fresh, yummy laundry you can roll around in (we don't judge, really).

If you want to be super-super fresh smelling, as some unnamed members of the Puff family opt to, you can use this shit as a wrinkle releaser and douse your shirt then tumble on warm for a few minutes before you put it on. Dude is one fresh smelling guy and every unsuspecting person he hugs blurts out, “wow, you smell good! Like, really fresh and good. What is that?”

Boom, there it is, people. There it is.

*No, Method did not pay me for this endorsement, I just really love this shit.

Three kids is only one more than two. I know, it's simple math.  It's amazing how hard that one extra kid can make parenting sometimes, especially now that we're outnumbered and none of our kids are what you'd call sedate, but it's just one more kid. Yet, the real difference between two and three is how people react to seeing me out and about with my three girls. I was mom to two girls for four years before number three joined the troop, so I've noticed the difference in commentary and reaction from the judging public (and it's amazing how many people feel compelled to say something). With just the two girls, I got a lot of compliments on the cute and how great sisters are. With three, I get a lot of, “whoa, three girls!!!” And then one of two follow-ups; either, “Wow, that’s going to be really rough when they’re teenagers,” or, “Well, you're lucky, at least girls are more cautious and quiet, three boys would be so much tougher.” I want to smack the...

One of the things I love best about having kids, besides the unquestioning acceptance of whatever weirdness I feel like dishing out at any given moment, is that they remind me to be imaginative and see wonder everywhere. Sure, I dump water on some of the magic with facts and science-y explanations, but they always bring the wonder. But then, when I consider the science from a child’s perspective, it reminds me that the cold hard facts are pretty miraculous too.  Simple things like lightning, wind and how a cloud forms are fantastic and amazing again – they remind me to look and notice and marvel at something as simple as the sparkling dew on our windshield this morning. And then there’s Quokka, who drives me to rediscover my creativity and reminds me that I was once a fantastical kid before adult responsibility sobered me up like a hard slap to the face. Some part of me let go of that wild, impractical imagination because it didn't serve a purpose. I spent more time on “real” ...

The dog died and our last reason for not doing something about our awful, disgusting carpet died with him. When we bought the house 12 years ago, we were informed the owner had installed the cheapest possible carpet to sell the place. It was indeed cheap, and crappy, and really light beige. But, you know, kids and dogs, and potty training, and chocolate milk, and juice, and muddy shoes… We just…let it ride…for more than a decade. Once, in a fit of exhaustion, I ripped the carpet out of the dining room, which was also the main traffic pattern in the house – path to the kitchen and all – because I couldn’t face the futile task of cleaning it one more time. We polished the slab, applied some sealer, and had a “designer” cement floor for a couple of years. The rest of the house was a scruffy calico of cheap oak veneer, tile, and fraying carpet mottled with stains. The stairs in particular were bad – both ugly and approaching official bio-hazard designation. I was repelled...
