Have you ever thought to clean your washing machine?

Have you ever thought to clean your washing machine?  Were you aware that residue builds up in your machine and causes odor?  I personally learned this the hard way.

 

If you follow me on Facebook, you’ll know that for about six months we’ve had a problem with our front loader washing machine.  We kept getting suds errors even if we did the wash with no soap.  That error could also be due to drainage issues.  In our case, that is what it was.  We had something (we don’t know what it was because when the item was pulled out, there was no telling what it was) that got stuck in our drainage tube (in an area we couldn’t access ourselves).  We ended up having to have a repair guy come out, and that is when I found out that you should clean your washing machine.  I had no idea!  Our machine was one of the dirtiest he’d ever seen (though a lot of that was due to the blockage we had).  One of the ways you can get rid of the residue that is hiding in all our machines is using the Affresh Power Puck tablets.  The oxygenated bubbling action of Affresh Power Puck tablets penetrates and dissolves the unseen residue.  Heavily soiled washers may require repeated treatments to remove traces of odor and residue. In this case, Whirlpool recommends running three successive washer cleaning cycles with one Affresh Power Puck tablet in each.

After learning the hard what what I have, I will never neglect to not clean my washer.  Affresh Power Puck will now be in my arsenal.

I wrote this review while participating in a campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of affresh and received product samples and a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.

Hell Froze Over aka Why I Love My Hubby

I know, interesting title.  But see, you have to know what the last week was like in my house.  Last weekend we were gone to a wedding.  All week, the earliest my hubby came home from work was 7 pm.  Needless to say, the house was a wreck.  On top of all that, I was changing hosting due to many issues with Bluehost (which I will blog about later!).

Hell froze over because well, the hubby actually got it into his head that we needed to clean the house.  Not only that, he helped.  We went from room to room and actually cleaned the majority of the house.  He actually got on his hands and knees and cleaned the tub.  He used an old toothbrush to clean the jets on the whirlpool.  That’s what a good job he did.  We rearranged the living room again too!  After the kids went to bed last night, he also went grocery shopping and managed to spend less than $200 too!  (However, some of his choices were not so good so I’ll be going back, but I am not complaining.)

It feels good to have a semiproductive weekend.  This afternoon we will be going to one of his friend’s house for a little party, and I am not sure what we have in store for tomorrow.
