Remember the Elderly

With all the running around, we seem to forget about the elderly in our midst. I think we all know someone up the street or in a rest home who is in need, as most are on low fixed incomes with little to no family who visit. I have found the smallest thing to do, is to bake some banana bread mix in small loaf pans. The price is about 5-6 dollars, but the smiles on their faces are priceless!!

Lunch Box Ice Pack

Place a bottle of water in your freezer and use it to keep your lunch box cold. It will also give you a cold water to drink for the day. Remember to remove some water before freezing to make room for expansion.

Make Batteries Last Longer

I found that when my batteries won't work in everyday electronics, I use a pencil eraser to clean the connections. It saves on buying new batteries when you don't have to. It's an old trick that we all forget.

Other babyshower guessing game

At my baby shower they had all the guests write out their address and a guess at the date and time of day the baby would be born. Whoever was closest without going over would have the prize mailed to them with the baby announcement. Having the addresses were also great to have for sending thank-you cards.

Its Special Place

To avoid clutter and mess, put everything away immediately after use every time. This includes the newspaper, a water glass or a book. Everything that has a special place should go back immediately after every use.
