Scratched

I wish I could find a way to get rid of scratches on my prescription eyeglasses. I’ve had them for over 4 years and I need to go and get new ones. The problem is that I can’t afford new glasses right now.

My current glasses are scratched and I really don’t like them anymore. I want to get something different that flatters my face and will help me see better than what I can right now.

I would love to wear contacts but I can’t. I tried them and they were ok for a couple weeks then my eyes started getting dry and irritated so I had to stop wearing them. It’s a shame because I loved how I looked without glasses and I was able to wear sunglasses again.

I found a way

I asked in an earlier post about how to remove cat hair from my chair. I found out that by putting on a pair of rubber kitchen gloves and rubbing the chair with the gloves that the cat fur came right off.

I tried it with the glove damp and with them dry. It worked much better when they were dry. So I guess I found another tip to share with everyone.

I need to find a good acne treatment because I have 3… count em.. 3 zits on my chin! 2 are big ones and one is a small one that is almost gone.

I used to have good skin when I was a teenager then as I got older my skin got worse. I just really don’t understand that at all. Isn’t it usually the other way around? I don’t even get my period anymore.. I had a hysterectomy when I was 27. At least I don’t get the greasy hair much anymore. In fact it’s gone the other way. It gets really dry and fly-away. It’s really bad in the winter and my hair likes to snap, crackle and pop and attack my face! I need to find something to help with that.

Cleaning your outdoor furniture

I’m sure, if you have outdoor furniture, you know how nasty looking it can get. Here are some tips for making your patio furniture come clean.

For aluminum furniture:
Place a good amount of dish washing detergent on a plastic scrubber or steel wool and begin to scrub.

When you’re finished, rinse the furniture real well and let it dry.

For white plastic furniture:
Place 1 gallon warm water in a bucket and add 3 teaspoons of dishwasher detergent .

Wash down the furniture with this solution.

Let the solution set on the furniture for approximately 15 minutes. (The dishwasher detergent has a bleaching agent in it that will whiten the furniture.)

Rinse and dry.

To clean unfinished wood furniture, scrub surface with a mixture of 1 cup household ammonia, 1/2 cup vinegar and 1 gallon water. Rinse well and wipe with an absorbent cloth to remove excess moisture.

Or you can do what I do.. throw it out and buy new stuff!
