FRESH PAINT & PEPPERMINT CUPCAKES...

I finally broke down and painted the ceiling today. (Next step is the entire room. ugh!) Anyways, as I was nearly halfway finished, I was finishing the ceiling area around my door when my dad pulled up causing Pookie (weiner dog) to bark like a crazy person. He went running & of course ran straight through my paint tray, right on top of my zebra print rain boots, my jacket, the floor, the rug, and then the couch. The bright red suede couch! So I had a trail white Pookie foot prints all over the place! I was so proud of myself too for not making a mess and doing such a good job in such a hurry.

Pookie ruined it! I could've strangled him. So I hurried to wipe the paint off the couch I used a wet wash cloth and thankfully, it seems to have came off pretty good. It's still there if you look close, but I'm just glad it's mostly gone.

Then I had to take care of my boots. It came off perfectly. But my floor & rug still have white pookie prints. Lol. And Pookie's paws are totally white all the way to his arms! It's kinda cute, so I left it there. But the fresh paint smell, I LOVE!

After all that painting, my back was killing me! It hurt so bad I could've cried. My arms are sore as well as my legs & I have 6 bruises! My entire left hip is a huge bruise. How do I manage to hurt myself doing simple tasks?

Then thank God the boyfriend got off work & cleaned the rest & finished the little bit of painting I had left. And then my mom came with a huge peppermint cupcake! I love those things they're seriously huge!

 

   Isn't it beautiful? It's so pretty I almost wanted to sit it on a shelf & just stare at it, but you know me. I ate it! lol Well, not all of it, I only ate a few bites.. ok 6 bites. lol I thought it'd be better to only eat a little bit for now. It really is big.

WONDERFUL HOUSEHOLD USES OF TOOTHPASTE

Incase you didn't know, you can use toothpaste for more than just your pearly whites. Heres a few:

1. Cleaning surfaces such as the toilet or tub. It cuts grime loose & it's easy. It also whitens the stained areas!

2. Clean silver, jewelry, faucets, sinks, etc.  Rub the entire surface or jewelry with the toothpaste, let it sit a while (depending how dirty) then rinse with warm water. It will make any silver & diamons shine! If youre using it on the sink or faucets, wash it with sponge or cloth then rinse. You'll be amazed at how great it looks.

3. Pimples. Many people use tooth paste for pimples but for me, it does not seem to make any difference. But you can always give it a try1

4. Burns. This is the best thing Ive found to relieve burns. Im constantly burning myself with my flat iron. Rubbing tooth paste on the entire burn and leaving it for a while will completely stop the burning & help with inflamation. If its a severe burn, consult a physician!
