Saving Money with Baking Soda: Shampoo!

Saving Money with Baking Soda: Shampoo!

Maybe I did this backwards! I started using Apple Cider Vinegar Conditioner a month or so ago when I ran out of store bought conditioner. Well, I ran out of store bought shampoo three days ago and I am now using a baking soda and water mixture to wash my hair. I love it! Now my hair is even more easier to deal with! Again, I am using a dollar tree spritz bottle to make the shampoo formula. Almost…

Wait!! Don't Call the Plumber... yet

Wait!! Don’t Call the Plumber… yet

Do you have slow drains? Who doesn’t at one point or another have a sink, tub or shower that starts to drain slow? If you are anything like me you don’t want to spend too much money fixing the problem. Drain cleaners are not only expensive, they are bad for the environment and sometimes bad for your plumbing.

It is impossible to do the San Diego Zoo in one day. We know because we tried. We arrived bright and early before the Zoo opened and walked our butts off all day. Literally, we walked our butts off all day and we still did not see everything. We didn’t even attempt to go to the Safari Park.

Our Storage Story...

Our Storage Story…

We haven’t always lived in our RV. Once upon a time, that wasn’t all that long ago, we lived in a house. The five of us and our dog put almost all of our stuff into storage containers. It was easy to do. The company dropped off the containers in the driveway and suddenly all of our stuff was packed away. Storage containers are convenient. They are great for remodeling projects and short term…

Disneyland, Not so Happiest Place on Earth

Disneyland, Not so Happiest Place on Earth

First of all, we had absolutely no plans on stopping at Disneyland. It wasn’t part of our road trip. We were going to avoid it. However, as is plain to see, we changed our minds and surprised everyone with day at Disneyland!! We used the app to get our tickets and reservations, showed up early and got great parking. Disney folks know that great parking still means quite a hike.We got the whole…

The Dam bathrooms. This was the best mens bathroom my boys have ever been in, according to them. As described by our middle son they had cool old style bathtub like urinals, boxy metal sinks, gold lining around the mirrors. The entire bathroom was black marbled granite.... see full blog post 👉 https://tinyurl.com/mdyf9euu #bathroomtourism #hooverdam #lakemead #blogpost #lifeof5intherv (at Hoover Dam - Nevada / Arizona State Line) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcVXRKzv7m4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
