But I clean regularly (religiously, even, lol). I routinely organize and on occasion re-organized my childrens’ toys and other personal items, especially around the holidays, or when they get something new, like a set of copic art markers, that requires more or innovative storage space. I vacuum daily. I sweep and mop every other day. We open windows in warmer weather. And, I always make sure to use different types of room fresheners. Airwick plugins are my favorite, but I’ve also recently become a fan of wax warmers and scented wax melts. Reed diffusers are also quite nice, though my cats tend to chew on them, so we don’t keep them around for long periods of time.

Desktops:
- unless you have a generator or other power backup, you won’t be able to use it if the power goes out
- consumers more power than a laptop
- can be loud
- requires you to sit in one area, in one position (can be uncomfortable for long lengths of time)

Laptops:
- can overheat
- may not be as comfortable as a desktop
- are generally not as powerful as desktops

One of my recent purchases was Cake’s Cake Supremely Rich Bath and Shower Froth, and I love it! Its coconut and vanilla scent is distinct, yet light enough to not be cloying or overly sweet. The soap is indeed rich and frothy – a quarter-sized amount provides enough lather and moisturization for showering and shaving with. And during the cold, dry winter season, one thing I can never get enough of is a body wash that makes my skin soft, smoothly, and supremely moisturized.

Then there are our lights. Until recently we have been using standard light bulbs. We still have a few here and there, but we switched to CFL light bulbs in our living room and in the bedrooms. Then I read about an opportunity to review Infinity LED Ultra Series LED Light Bulbs. While CFL light bulbs are certainly energy efficient, LED light bulbs are even more efficient. And the Infinity LED Ultra Series LED Light Bulbs are certainly worth writing home about. Each of these specialty bulbs contains 88 small LED lights which are evenly distributed, and together put out 35,000+ continuous hours (that’s 4 years) worth of lighting. You can save up to 93% of your lighting costs per bulb when you use these bulbs.

Infinity LED Ultra Series LED Light Bulbs are available in two color temperatures – cool white, which is more of a blue light like what you would find in stores and medical offices; and warm white, which is more of a yellow light like what you would find in homes. While cool lighting can certainly have its place in homes (such as in bathrooms, kitchens, and garages), I’m a fan of warm lighting.
Then there’s the wattage – the 3W power consumption is equivalent to that of a 40W incandescent bulb, and would be appropriate for small rooms and reading lamps. The 4W power consumption is equivalent to that of a 60W incandescent bulb, and is perfect for living rooms, family rooms, and bedrooms.

We popped out our CFL light bulbs and replaced them with the Infinity LED Ultra Series LED Light Bulbs, and with the exception of brightness (our CFL light bulbs had a wattage equivalent to a 100W incandescent bulb), there’s no difference in the light temperature, its steadiness, and how well it comes through the lamp shades. Here are the before and after shots:

My husband and I are quite satisfied with the quality of the Infinity LED Ultra Series LED Light Bulbs, and we’re both excited to see how our electricity bill might change – especially once we replace all of the bulbs in our house with LED light bulbs. Yes, LED light bulbs are pricier than even CFL light bulbs (right now the 3W/40W equivalent LED light bulb is $15.75), but they are much more energy efficient, and are designed to last a lot longer – so it won’t be long until they pay for themselves!

But even if I could play music, in the end I’d probably choose to sing – I’ve always loved to sing! How about you?

What I like about Smart & Sexy, besides their affordable products (most of the bras are just $15, sleepwear and lingerie is between $15-$20, and panties start at $6), is that these affordable products are gorgeous, sexy, fashionable & flirtatious, and perfect for everyday wear or those special nights. With many colors, styles, and sizes available, there’s something for every woman.
