My new love...

Sleeping has become somewhat nonexistent these days. Between needing to get up to go to the bathroom, and not being able to breathe because of my allergies, good sleep happens rarely. So what to do when you can't sleep? Turn on the tv and watch infomercials! Yep, between 3-5 am there isn't a whole lot on tv, but there are TONS of infomercials. Usually I am not a believer, but I think my nesting got the best of me a few nights ago...

I have become obsessive over cleaning my floors. They just never seem clean enough, and I WILL NOT get on my hands and knees to scrub them. The back pain afterwards is just not worth it. Fortunately, I was up on one of those lovely nights battling my allergies when I flip the channel to the Shark Steam Pocket Mop infomercial. Let me tell you...I wanted to order that thing right then and there, and take it down stairs and use it immediately. My problem...shipping time :( If I ordered it through the tv I would have to WAIT for it to get here. I'm not one for a lot of patience, so the very next morning I got my handy computer out and googled for it. Read some more glowing reviews about it, and found out that Bed Bath and Beyond sells it...woo-hoo! Plus, now I could use the ever-popular 20% coupon. So off we went to BBB and got our Shark mop. As much as I wanted to try it as soon as we got home, I decided to wait until after B was in bed. It was like Christmas morning when the kids want everything they open taken out of the box right away and put together so they can use it that instance. Well, picture that but replace the kiddos with a 7 month pregnant momma and the toy is a mop. Not even 30 minutes later, my floors we perfection! That steam mop worked wonders on the tile. I even took a paper towel to the floor afterwards to see if there was any dirt left behind....NOTHING! This mop is as amazing as the infomercial said it was, and that makes for one happy nesting momma! (on a side note: the floors don't dry as fast as the infomercial says, but they do dry faster than mopping and swiffering.)
