    Seeing as the stuff makes me sneeze, I bet 99% of the time baking soda would also work!

    I am trying to clean out my closet. A friend at church gave me a question to ask myself which has really helped. "If you were at the store today, would you buy this?" She also told me to pull out anything I have not worn in the last 6-12 months. I have way too many old clothes and she gave me good encouragement to keep working on the clean-out.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    I saw this at a pet resort......

    Save the cardboard tube from a roll of toilet paper, then fold up your power cables and feed them thru the center.

    No more cables underfoot!

    Works to disuse them from nibbling bunnies or kitties, too!

    Yep, Richard that works too. That was what I had to do to keep my computer and tv cords safe from my monsters. The cable guy laughed at me when he had to come put my router in when I got wi fi. But the cords on the old modem were safe and tooth mark free.

    Chip had to try it out though and tried to bite one of the tubes. He got his mouth around it but the best he could so was squash the tube a bit not bite the cord. The tubes can always be painted with a non-toxie paint to match your decor if you want. They are cheap and easy to replace when needed too.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Imagine - Chip? That innocent little kitty trying to chew something?
