I had a pair of jeans I loved that the hole that came in them (by the way - who said this was cool?) got so big my whole leg could fit through it. I was throwing them out when I decided to give them one last ditch effort. So I bought a pack of denim patches tonight from Walmart for $1.97 and voila - I added some spunk to them in other places too just for fun: So then I get the bright idea to "

Got your attention didn't I?So how do you do this mystical thing - getting kids to clean?Well I'm no expert but I did have luck this week and thought I'd share.I put kids in charge of things I thought for sure was too big for them - organizing all their hangers in their closet and purging old clothes, making a brace for a shelf that was sagging, and stacking all the suitcases inside each other

today's lesson

2009-11-01T21:51:00.002-05:00

Today I learned that saying you're going to save for a rainy day or even wanting to do it really bad is not the same as actually doing it.
