After months and months of pandemic life, spending more time at home and less leaving the house for school, work and life in general, the piles of clutter have become overwhelming.

New Affordable Canadian Mattresses – Mirabed
We received product in exchange for honest consideration in this post about affordable Canadian mattresses. My youngest daughter has been asking for a room makeover for months. There never seemed to be time. But last summer when she went away to camp in Muskoka, we stripped everything off of the walls and painted the room three different colours. Of course, she helped picked the shades out. That gave her space a big boost of colour. And she was thrilled with the results when she came home. But, there was still the matter of the furniture and a mattress. Her bed, a loft bed, was way too small and she had…

Where to Find Luxury Sheets Without the Price
This is a sponsored post and I received product for consideration here. Luxury sheets are something that I rarely buy for myself. Honestly, have you seen the prices on some of the sheets out there? I can choose between buying wonderful, comfortable sheets or a week’s worth of groceries. I’m sorry, but with two teenagers in the house, groceries win out. New sheets are one of those items, like towels, that I just don’t shop for until we have to. That means I usually sleep on sheets that are good enough, but that aren’t exactly super cozy. That’s why I’m glad I found California Design Den. They have wonderful luxury…

This post is sponsored which means I received product or compensation. Emergency preparedness is something every family should give some thought to periodically. From severe thunderstorms in the spring to heavy snowstorms in the winter, we’re all at risk for emergency situations. To be honest I didn’t really ever worry much about being prepared for natural disasters or weather incidents until recently. The tornado we had in Ottawa this year really hit home for me. As I watched and worried about several good friends in the Ottawa region, I realized my family isn’t prepared enough for emergencies in general. That got me thinking about preparing an emergency kit and supplies…
