BORAX




What is Borax?

Borax is 100% natural mineral from the earth.  Once removed from the ground it is washed, dried, and boxed for consumers.  

Borax is the common name for sodium tetraborate: a naturally occurring substance produced by the perpetual evaporation of seasonal lakes. 

Absolutely nothing is added.  No phosphates, chlorine, or other additive chemicals. 

Borax naturally softens hard water, which protects your detergent, so it can maximize cleaning power.  Simply add 1/2 cup of Borax to every load, along with your Purex detergent.

Once you start using Borax you will notice it will naturally softens hard water and improves detergents cleaning power and help keep stains from being re-deposited back onto clothes. 

My Review: 

Thank you Borax for providing me a free sample of their product so I could review them.  However, all the opinions expressed here are my own.  

I have never used Borax before but after using it on the last 10 or so loads of laundry I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!  I think it really is helping my clothes feel softer!  I have also used it to clean my sinks and it worked fantastic.  Borax may be a great laundry booster but it is also a great product to clean around the house.  I have not had to try to remove a stain in the last couple weeks but I am eager to test the Borax with my next stain.

Every week is a laundry fiasco at our house. I think that we do 20 loads a week! My husband loves to leave pens in his pocket and once I had to throw away an entire load of office clothes after trying various ways of getting out the ink stain that got all over the wash. We have had to replace cell phones twice and various usb cards and jump drives over the years. I do check his pockets before putting items in but the locations vary and hence I miss these things.

Our dryer broke last winter. We only went about 10 days without one, but you would have thought we went a year without one with the amount of laundry that piled up!

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income.
