One incredible thing about doing this lockdown thing is that if drives me to do things I wouldn’t ordinarily do. Like clean my floors. Alright, I do clean my floors, however not so regularly as I should. I simply HATE doing it not terrible, but not great either to such an extent! In any event now I have a heavy-duty floor cleaner that makes it to a lesser degree a task.
The kitchen truly isn’t really awful. I love my wood cover floors because more often than not, a clammy paper towel will work. Yet, the bathrooms? Well that is an alternate story.
I live in a house populated by guys. Anybody with young men comprehends what that “kid washroom smell” resembles. I swear, it’s in the dividers. I can wipe down each surface in there and wash the floor on all fours it’s still there-floating through the house like an Oscar the Grouch rendition of a Glade module. In any case, this floor cleaner just may be my salvation.
This formula from Food.com is for rock solid cleaning like in a business kitchen. It is intended to be an oil shaper. What’s more, it worked incredible on my kitchen floor. However, what attracted me to the pin was the way that somebody wrote in the portrayal “smells astounding.”
The issue with utilizing alkali based cleaners like Pine-Sol in the washroom is that it just appears to exacerbate the pee smell even. Also, why utilize costly and unforgiving synthetic substances when you don’t need to? Truly, my washroom smells extraordinary and the floors look clean. In any event for the following 12 seconds.
Substantial Floor Cleaner
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon liquid dish cleanser (blue Dawn is a supernatural occurrence in a jug I wouldn’t utilize whatever else!)
- 1/4 cup washing soda (this can be found in the clothing walkway of the market)
- 2 gallons faucet water, very warm water
Put all the fixings into a basin and blend well until sudsy.
Mop the zone with the solution. Rinsing isn’t required, yet cleaning down with a towel a short time later gives a decent perfect completion
Not suggested for waxed floors–it might make the wax gunky.
Father Sends a Letter to Son Weekly for Years With No Reply, Suddenly Receives Photo from Him
The Polaroid felt heavy in James’ trembling hands. His heart raced as he flipped it over, eager for an explanation. On the back, written in Andrew’s unmistakable handwriting, were the words:
*”This is my son, Dad. His name is James.”*
James stared at the photo again, his eyes welling with tears. In it, a young boy with unruly dark hair and sparkling blue eyes stood in a park, clutching a soccer ball. He looked no older than six.
James’ heart ached as he traced the little boy’s face with his finger. *I have a grandson,* he thought, his chest tightening with emotion. But the joy was laced with sorrow. Andrew had kept this from him for years.
Flipping the photo back over, James noticed something else:
*”He asks about you. I don’t know what to say.”*
James sank into his armchair, the weight of the years pressing down on him. He remembered the fight with Andrew at his late wife’s funeral. Words had been exchanged in the heat of grief—words James deeply regretted. He had tried to apologize countless times, pouring his heart into every letter he’d sent over the years, but Andrew had never replied.
Now, here was this boy—his grandson—who didn’t even know his grandfather.
James wiped his tears and resolved to try one more time.
That evening, James sat at his desk and began to write.
*”Dear Andrew,
I cannot express how much seeing that photo meant to me. Thank you for letting me meet James, even in this small way. I know I’ve hurt you, and I know I’ve failed as a father in ways that I can’t undo. But I want to be better—for you and for him. Please let me.
With love, always,
Dad.”*
He folded the letter and placed it in an envelope. This time, he didn’t feel the familiar despair. For the first time in years, hope stirred in his heart.
Weeks passed, and James checked his mailbox every day with renewed anticipation. One afternoon, as the sun set, he found another envelope waiting for him.
Inside was a single sentence:
*”James wants to meet his grandfather. Are you ready?”*
James clutched the letter, tears streaming down his face. After all the years of silence, the door to reconciliation had finally cracked open. He knew this was his second chance—not just to mend his relationship with Andrew, but to be a part of young James’ life.
And this time, he wouldn’t waste it.
