Making Life EASY!

image We’ve all seen it – The Easy Button! We all wish we had one.

There are some things that come along every now and then that make our life EASIER. I have several things that I use daily that make my life EASIER.


SWIVEL SWEEPER

My Mom (the Gadget Queen) got me a Swivel Sweeper a imagefew years ago. Can I tell you?…..I LOVE THIS THING! I use it several times a day on our tile floor, especially in the kitchen and around the table. It picks up EVERYTHING- it’s cordless, the rechargeable battery lasts a long time, it’s light weight, gets any where and it’s easy to clean up!

What A Tease -Backcomb in a Bottle

image While the runway bouffants may be a bit over the top for the everyday, it’s easy to re-create a more low key version of tousled hair at home, or if you like a little extra 00mph and volume like I do! I used to tease the back top of my hair to give it a little lift. Well, when you have a daughter who is a hairdresser (Hollywood) you find out about some great hair products. When Hollywood found this product she KNEW it was for ME!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff!! Makes my “teased crown” so easy and even without making your hair sticky or knotty.

Section off the back part of your hair (where you want the extra volume) starting at the crown, lift hair and add (don’t shake the can) BigSexyHair’s What A Tease “Backcomb in a Bottle to the underneath, comb hair over and smooth – just like when you tease it. You will have lift and volume all day!

Romano’s Macaroni Grill Creamy Basil Chicken

Let me just say……Easy, good and inexpensive!

Less expensive than eating out, but tastes like you are!! Romano’s Macaroni Grill Creamy Basil Chicken & Pasta is quickly becoming a favorite at our house, and it’s great for those nights when you need a good dinner fast!



Google Calendar

Google Calendar is a great way to manage my time and image appointments. I can receive event reminders by email, SMS, or pop-ups in the calendar itself. Daily agendas can be emailed or text-messaged to me. I can even check my calendar via text and add events via text.



ClipMarks

ClipMarks is like adding a pair of scissors to your web browser. Do you ever see just a little bit of information on a webpage that you want to save? Maybe a quote you like, a new product you want to try, gift idea………so you book mark the page and forget all about it or can’t find it when you want it.

Well, ClipMarks lets you “cut out” just the information you want to save/remember and save it to your clipmarks.com account. It’s like having online organized notes. Instead of scribbling on a piece of scratch paper, or bookmarking an entire page, or highlighting cutting and pasting to word document. – No need to do any of that!! Just ClipMark it!

You can save, email, post or print your ClipMarks.

So those are a few things that are making MY life easy right now!! Leave me a comment and let me know what is making YOUR life EASY!

    I have this crystal deodorant that you just pick up and put on after a shower. It looks like a rock and works great and it last a year. Not messes to it at all, never gets on clothes.

    I will have to check out the clipmarks. Maybe it would help me clean up my overflowing bookmark tab?! I think I’ll try the candy corn cookies this year too.

    I’ve been wondering about the swivel sweeper for a long time – I sweep probably 4-5 times a day and hate sweeping up a pile. Thanks
