Mission: A Clean yet "Green" Floor

Here's my latest purchase in my attempt to clean in more environmentally friendly ways. It's a HAAN steam floor cleaner with microfiber pads. Supposedly my kitchen floors are to be cleaned and sanitized with only the heat from the steam; this means no chemicals like with a regular mop and because the microfiber pads are washable there is nothing to throw away like with the Swiffer type mops that are popular now. I also bought a carpet attachment that allows me to sanitize my carpets, furniture, and mattresses.

I've used it twice in the kitchen and the floor does appear to be clean. My only complaint is that it takes a lot of strength to push it but other than that, so far so good. Hopefully it holds up and I can finally have a satisfactory way to clean my floors.

Independence Day

For me...from school...for the summer. I dropped my Critical Thinking English class which means I will have a few government agencies on my ass in the not to distant future. We had our first big essay due and I couldn't find any information on the racial conflicts of suburbia at my local closet- sized library so I am throwing in the towel. If I was feeling really motivated I could have driven down to Ohlone on Monday for some research and come home and written my paper in one day, all with B in tow, but I just feel blah and incapable right now. I don't know what is going to be worse, a "W" on my record or now knowing what is in store for me when I take this class again next semester.

"My First Tooth that Falled Out"

B lost his first tooth on Sunday night, oh how they grow so fast. He wanted to save the tooth so he decided to leave the tooth fairy a note asking her "not to take the tooth but just leave some money". She not only left money but an awesome new water gun. B is now eagerly awaiting his next loose tooth.
