Just last night

My motto this week!
I feel like I am holding onto my life jacket with both hands, kicking my feet like crazy....trying not to sink! So many great ideas, so little time!

I did this last night! Yes just put a wooden spoon over your boiling water---and no boiling over water. I do not know why or how...I just know it worked. Didn't wait to long to figure out why because mom always said never watch a boiling pan of water!

I am in the middle of finishing our taxes. I know, I know...deadline is around the corner. I love this infographic. How do you keep track of all your stuff? Baby steps as my mom says!

Scared of the Repairs no more!

I cannot take all the credit. As long as I have google at my fingertips, I can almost figure out anything. Our freezer died on us on Tuesday. That evening, I went to look for a new one. After I picked myself off the ground and saw the prices from $1000 to $3000 for something similar to what I have now, I decided I must figure out what is wrong with our refrigerator!
Thanks to my hubby who is willing to try everything at least once, we started taking apart the frigerator. Charleigh also thought she could help. After many google searches and youtube videos, we concluded it was the starter relay switch on the compressor. You shake it and if it rattles, it is broke. How easy is that! 
One part later, one freezer working. 
Do not be afraid to google things like "freezer is not freezing, now what? , HELP me, my freezer is broke." The most amazing part is that someone else has already googled it before you, so just ask. 
Resolution #4: Never be afraid ask for help even if it is from www.google.com or www.youtube.com for visual learners!
