Favorite Ways to Get Rid of Weeds
I HATE pulling weeds. Who actually likes it?! But, these all help make it a little more bearable 👏🏻
🌟 Things to note:
•The weed torcher is kind of fun! It does require a propane tank & it can take a minute for your weeds to dry up. Apply the flame to the BASE of the weed which causes the moisture to evaporate & kills the weed. As always follow safety precautions and use good judgment. This could be a fun Father's or Mother's Day gift if you ask me 😏
•The stand up weeder is my all time favorite weed tool! It works best with dandelions. It's just so satisfying and a sign I'm old for how much I love it. When you get a dandelion by the root 😮💨
•Vinegar weed killer: 1 gallon white vinegar, 1 tabl...

No to Low Prep Educational Activities
Просмотров 6 тыс.6 дней назад
Three cheers to @chuckleandroar & @gloplay_usa for creating activities that help this no to low prep mom out! I'm just not the mom that sets up pre-planned educational activities for my kids. I tried it with my first kid & I was always frustrated at how long they took to set up and then how little of time it kept them busy (which is why I now have the series testing Pinterest activities to see ...
How to Avoid Staining Your Concrete with Sidewalk Chalk
Просмотров 16 тыс.9 дней назад
"It's just washable CHALK AND WATER" were my thoughts as I read some comments on a viral video about this staining concrete. "People are ridiculous!" (that also ran through my mind) Well, I was eating some humble pie as I scrubbed my concrete with a scrub brush trying to get this concoction off. I do think it's because I did not smash my chalk fine enough. My kids loved helping smash it, but so...
Fridge Organization (that's actually going to help)
Просмотров 11 тыс.12 дней назад
My fridge is a constant battle: messy, a little smelly at times, & questionable expiration dates...BUT, these items have helped me feel a little more organized with minimal effort 💁🏽♀️ 👉🏻 AND settle this marriage debate •Do you follow your eggs expiration date? (This has been a hot topic in our house our whole marriage 🥚). I store our eggs in a clear bin. At one point during our marriage, my h...
Walmart Wisdom: In App Recipes 👀
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.13 дней назад
Did you know this?! Because I didn't until last week when my brother told me anout this feature 🤯. Meal planning is so dang time consuming & something tells me this is going to help! I love that there's a wide variety of recipes to meet many needs, AND that I can swap out ingredients if I want to change them to something I prefer. It's extremely user friendly & provides options for all meals, s...
Testing: How to Get Dry Erase Marker Out of Clothes
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.16 дней назад
This is the one stain I can't ever crack! I've seen people test it before, but they also make the mark and immediately remove it. But, I rarely get to these spots or see them until they've sat for at least a day plus on my kids' clothes 🙃 🌟 ALL of these were sprayed with water prior to each treatment 🌟Each was scrubbed to work the treatment in (a different toothbrush used on each one) & sat 30 ...
Pantry Moth Infestation: What I Learned
Просмотров 12 тыс.19 дней назад
Last week I had zero idea what a pantry moth was. This week, I can tell you everything dang thing about them: their likes, dislikes, coloring, prevention, and life cycle. I hate that I know all of this 🙃. But, my misfortune is your gain! Imma teach you what I've learned! I wish I had known more about them. And based off my stories this week (watch my highlight bubble if you haven't), most of yo...
Grandma's Sloppy Joes
Просмотров 22 тыс.21 день назад
Grandma Hobday's Sloppy Joes were famous where I'm from! So famous that they were even served at her funeral. On her recipe card it says "serves 40" because I feel like she never made a batch that served less! I can't help but eat these and think of her. Sloppy Joes have so many variations, but, I'm convinced this one is the best! (And just trust me on her rules. @lays potato chips right on the...
Barbie (and other toy) Storage Drawers
Просмотров 77 тыс.23 дня назад
This setup has been up & running for a few weeks & I'm hopeful 🤞🏻. Sure, things still get dumped out, but now they have a place to live that's easily accessible & organized enough. I also think this could be great for so many toy storage options! Trains, wooden train tracks, cars, action figures, little people, etc! Lots of possibilities here. Bless the mom in that FB group who suggested this s...
Grown Up Purchases Bringing Me Joy

Grown up purchases that are bringing me joy (and even more joy because they're under $15) 😏 It's the simple things in life really. I remember my mom getting excited about getting a new vacuum or kitchen utensil and I'd think she was so lame. But now, I totally get it & I'm here for it! Things to note: •The flat wall plug only works for plugs that are 2 pronged NOT 3 pronged. • The silicone cord...
Target Tip: Drive Up Returns 🎯
Просмотров 2 тыс.Месяц назад
I polled in my stories a few weeks ago and asked who knew that this was an option @target . Over 59% said they had no idea! WHAT?! Truly think everyone needs to know about this 🎯 (the fact that it's so exciting to me is a sign of being in my mid 30's). I love it as a mom with young kids. I love that I don't have to get everyone out of the car. As an OT, I love the simplicity of it for those who...

What you gonna do with all that junk? All that junk inside your trunk? This is the song in my head the whole time I filmed this 🎶🫡....Except these items aren't actually junk! 👊🏻 This car tote lives in my trunk & is filled with those "just in case" items....that somehow almost always get used. And don't you worry your pretty little heads, I still have room for groceries! The hooks hold bags OR i...
Birthday Freebies 🥳 🎉

Free stuff on your birthday is the best! Most of these you can use the entire month of your birthday, but some have to be used within 1-2 weeks of your birthday OR the Crumbl cookie has to be used on your actual birthday! BUT, all of these are totally free! No purchase necessary. And as mentioned above, you do need to be signed up for reward programs for most of these. So, just decide what's wo...
Kid Bathroom Items that are working! 🚽 🛀
Просмотров 97 тыс.Месяц назад
WHAT DO KIDS DO IN THE BATHROOM?! Blows my mind honestly. I'm always shocked (not sure why) at what I find. Our kid bathroom gets plenty messy, but these items have helped make a dent in managing some of the mess. Most of these have been in full swing for 6 months to 2 years and they're still going strong 🙃 The bath toys shown we added at Christmas and they're played with almost every bath time...
Thrift Store Kids' Cleats
Просмотров 14 тыс.Месяц назад
I'll be the first to admit I don't thrift store shop a lot. Not because I don't like to, but with little kids, it's hard to make time to do it. But, some items I can't pass up going to look for...Cleats are one of them! My kids' feet grow SO fast! Every season (even from spring to fall sports), we need a new size! It's out of control. My son is big on the name brand styles and I can almost alwa...
With emetophobia, I DONT WANNA BE A MOTHER THATS THE ONLY REASON
I have the same bag at home!
Your kid is a murderer
Cute love my dolls Iknow no one cares about the hair but it drives me crazy 😭😭 iwant to glam them up so bad lol
Uh 🙄
ANOTHER TIP: PUT WATER IN THE BUCKET OR BOWL ITS EASIER TO RINSE OR CLEAN
But you are a good mom 👩🏻
I usually just smoke my weeds 💨🔥
Pleas 🥹 give meeeee plaes😍😍😍
Yeah use you’re arms wimps
Im glad you are all better now

when i was a kid my nana up cycled old beer cases for my dolls! they all stood up perfectly inside and i could see them all at a glance! maybe something like that could work for you too! :)
Your nana sounds resourceful! I love that!
Instead of putting the glow sticks in the bowl maybe tape two in the rim so they dont throw up on the glow sticks
Yeah, I don't mind throwing glow sticks away! They don't glow long anyway!
@@galpractical lol
I was sick last time but I recovered now 😢😢
“Mum why is my vomit glowing?”
On
Another great tip is leaving possibly just an open garbage bag on the floor with the tablecloth leave about 2 or 3 garbage bags on the floor not closed opened that way if your kid gets really sick they can just open the trash bag and hurl away
I like glow sticks

Great tips! Personally with my young child I don’t turn the lights off and prefer to sleep with her on the ground but the other tip was great for all parents! Saved my carpets for sure 😂

Same me and my hole family have been sick this week

???
Stop ✋ ✋ ✋ wasting plastic save the world 🌎 by washing your towels I know the USA is behind in this but please learn and lead by example 😌
It's a good point! But honestly, If it's not plastic, then someone complains about me wasting water to wash all the towels. Trying my best 👊🏻
I can only fit balloons in my mouth
I won't get on board with using salt
You don't have to! You get to make your own decisions 👍🏻. But, I prefer this over round up to protect my kids and pets 🙌🏻
Dandelions are the most nutritionally dense plants on the planet. FYI
people who call dandelions weeds blow me away. just look into what dandelions are capable of.
They may do a lot of good, but they can also destroy a yard pretty quick.
@@galpractical i dont understand the appeal of a bare yard. to each their own, but we gotta at least acknowledge the use cases. if you like a yard with no dandelions, im not shaming.
@@bzb333I mean, we have grass and landscaping. It's not bare . I prefer a yard without dandelions , but you do you 👊🏻
What about those roots that stick out the ground i have a bed in front of my house with roots and cant exactly pull them out and would like to restore the bed itself
When you have 8.274 sq feet of grass and 5 different ways to pull weeds you are doing too much, spending too much on it, sonate to a homeless person on the street instead, not to a charity thats for tax evasion......
When you're judging someone's whole life off a 30 second weed video ....you're judging too hard . Turn that judgment into some love next time 👏🏻
@@galpractical I did, love towards homeless people that are more deserving of the money spent on extraneous ineffective weed killing devices, and made sure to remind that charity isn't for helping the people in need it rarely makes it to those in need, and I didn't judge anyone I based my comment on the facts in the video, I hope you are having a great day or night!
@@bentboybbzYou're still doing it dude. Stop judging people off of a 10 sec clip and telling them what to do, you're in no position to do that.
@@bentboybbzmaybe I have money to spend on both? Ya know? You don't know a dang thing about me 🤪 . Still not sure how or WHY we are tying weeds and homelessness together TBH 🤣🤣. The internet is wild!
It looks so useless for actually getting rid of weeds, lol
What does? All 3 of these? Can promise you they're not 👍🏻
Salt the land? Okaaaayyyy.......
👌🏻 👌🏻
weed pulling by hands has a reason for it the spikes on the weeds poke you and actually give you healing benifits i've never thought they were ugly i let em get big then pull em its a healing herb i pull my weeds for a nice health boost seems lost amongst the crowd.
I usually just smoke my weeds 🌲🔥💨
When you've been brainwashed and you're doing useless things.
I mean, my weeds are dead.
I have that same stupid weed puller and it only gets the whole root if the ground is wet. After a good rain is the only time incan get the whole carrot of a root out.
Bummer! We haven't had the problem! You do have to put your body weight into it to get it into the ground!
There is a reason they call dandelion a weed it's a powerful natural medicine. How they deceive unknowing/ stupid intelligent people.
NAH THEY DOING HOLE IN HOLE
I was sick yesterday lol 😂😂😂😂
Damn! 😅
Literally smart.
ANYONE GONNA SAY HERE B4 SCOTT
That is so smart 👇🏻
That is so smart
That is so smart 👇🏻
Could’ve used this vid last night😂😭
Another idea is save/get water proof mattress protectors, we have the ones we had as babies in our cribs, and lay them on the couch so it doesn’t get the couch mess up
Or I can just pull them of in about 10s. This is wack.
