Is There Anything I don't Share on this Blog?

Yesterday DH walked into the bathroom and caught me bent over with the hair dryer in one hand, a toothbrush in the other, and the camera on a tripod, set to go off on it's own. The man is used to seeing me photograph weird things, but this one did stop him in his tracks.



Well, what can I say? I do this all the time.

I've already told you how I dry my hair upside down.

Well, as my head is way down near the floor, I get a good view of all the raised panels. Sometimes I see dust. At least once a week, I grab the toothbrush (in the drawer for just this purpose) and I give it a swipe or two, to remove all of the dust. There is nothing weird about it. It's quick and easy.

"How do think the crevices stay so clean?" I ask DH as he gives his head an incredulous shake and walks out. It's not like he would ever (in a million years) think to clean them. I guess men think it all happens by magic.

Sometimes I am the queen of multi tasking! :)

See, I wasn't lying when I said the toothbrush was one of my top two cleaning tools.

Today was nail day. I got a bright color and had a little fan embellishment on one finger. I was in the mood for something different, but this is brighter than I thought it would be. Oh, well, I only have to keep it for two weeks.

I am enjoying this cup of Amaretto Cappucino as I wait for the polish to harden up so I can sew. It takes about an hour and that's about how long I've been doing this post (my Mom called right in the middle of posting, so it's taking me a long time tonight).

O.K. now I have to label it. Hmmmm, I guess I will call this one a "cleaning tip".

  1. Hi Zoey,
    I just remembered you grow cannas when I saw your new category for it. See! It's useful already. :)

    Anyway, mine all wilted when California had a cold blast recently. Since you cut off the tops of yours and store them for the winter, should I cut off the tops of mine too? Any other suggestions? You can see what they look like in this post. http://wanderingchopsticks.blogspot.com/2007/01/january-garden-update-oranges-werent.html

    Thanks!

  4. Wandering C, I am so glad someone found them useful already. :)

    Laurie, I think he was wondering just what kind of crazy woman he was stuck with for the rest of his life. hee hee

    Hey, Pea. I can't grow them like that either! That's why I have to go every two weeks to have them put on! LOL. They are acrylic.

  6. Found your blog through Rosemary! Enjoyed your multi-tasking post! My family thinks I'm a little crazy with the camera too, since I have started blogging.

  7. The toothbrush is one of my best tools for cleaning (and I don't mean teeth), too. It's great for awkward areas around faucets. We get a lot of calcium buildup with the way our water is. Plus there are lots of other uses.

  9. I'm catching up on a few of your posts Zoey and had a giggle over this one. I can relate to taking pictures of anything and everything with my camera :) The family says, "Oh, here she goes again". That's when they start pulling stupid faces :)
    I clean things with a tooth brush too...but I'm not nearly as good at multi-tasking as you are girl! :)
    I'm picturing your husband's incredulity...LOL
