A nice lady at Sam’s Club was giving away free samples of this laundry additive called Oxyclean, so I took one. I don’t usually get my clothes very dirty, but every once in a while I have to do something like work in the garden or some other dirty yard work, and it can be hard to get grass stains out of your clothes. Sure enough, I had to dig up all the rotted vegetable plants that caught the fungus disease and my clothes got filthy. So I tossed in some of the Oxyclean and they came out really clean!

In grade school we learned about St. Patrick, who charmed all the snakes out of Ireland.
I wonder if that is true in today’s world? Are there really no snakes in Ireland? Forgive me if that sounds impertinent, but I really don’t know. I suspect that it is too cold up there for most snakes anyway. It seems to me that the further South you go and the warmer the weather, the more snakes there are.
Anyway, I hope the people of Ireland do no have to deal with snakes or any other kinds of rodents and pests, and that their life is as quaint and charming as all the postcards and photos make it appear to be.
In America, St. Patricks Day is a great excuse to bust out of Winter’s gloom and have a wild party. We have parades, green rivers, green beer and parties all over town for days before and on St. Pats Day.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

I have started this year to clip the Box Tops for Education coupons that are virtually every where that you look in your kitchen cabinets and refrigerator. The school systems are hurting just as badly as the rest of the world right now, they have always seemed to take a back seat to so many other funding issues.
The schools that participate in this Box Top fundraiser can make some serious money and I’m glad to donate what ever I can in an effort to help support these important institutions of learning.

Since I am still all new to this blogging and all of the tricks of the trade that go along with it, I have been surfing the Internet and finding a lot of good informative information that has made this interesting and sometimes challenging process so much more simply and fun, which is a step in the right direction.
There are a log of blogs that I am finding online, that discuss so many aspects of this wonderful world of blogging, I’m hoping to continue learning and make this an adventure that will keep my interest and entertain me for a good long time.
