What do you do when your life outgrows your blog? When I started blogging ( in 2008), life was pretty static, but as a military wife, static is very temporary - we seem to go through twice as many transitions - whether home or career changes - as anyone else I know. My transition from a dog-centric blog (Dog Blogging with Luna) to My Life in Blog Years is an expansion of my blogging repertoire to match my life. In evolving the blog, I needed a title that reflected the many dimensions of life that it is intended to cover, but that still alluded to the blog's origin and its main 'cast.' Welcome to My life in Blog years... I hope you come back for more!
Wordless Wednesday #86
Not sure if this should be a 'wordless' or just a 'priceless' picture of me... but yes this IS a picture of me. Monday evening I managed to get food stuck in my esophagus (something that has become a recurring issue with me) and had to go to the ER to receive an Esophago-Gastro-Duodenoscopy. I also received esophageal dilatation where a balloon was used to widen the narrowed part of my esophagus. I was (of course) sedated while all of this was being done, and this lovely picture was taken by my husband at my request (though he initially refused, repeatedly) while he patiently waited for the staff to sign me out. Apparently after waking up I asked the nurse if I would be able to drink coffee and eat ice-cream... obviously I must have been hungry and tired.

CLEAN+GREEN review and give-a-way
Luna and I were recently invited to participate in a product review by the company CLEAN+GREEN, along with hosting a give-a-way on our blog.
Here is a product description from their website: “Clean+Green® is the only eco-friendly aerosol pet cleaning product on the planet. Unlike most other cleaning products that can be harmful, require multiple applications and/or only temporarily mask odors, Clean+Green delivers instant results in a non-toxic, eco-friendly solution. Clean+Green permanently cleans pet stains and eradicates odors. It is safe for pets, people (kids too!), and the planet.”
For this review I was allowed to select one of the many CLEAN+GREEN products, so I chose the one that seemed most applicable to our canine environment - Furniture Refresher for Dogs! This product is advertised to clean and permanently remove stains and dog odors on fabric, upholstery and dog beds.
Here we are putting it to the test.
Object to be cleaned- Luna’s filthy leather chair.
The result-
Luna’s thoughts-
I think Luna was happy to have her chair back.
I thought the product worked very nicely, especially on our leather furniture. The product is odor-free, so it took a little getting used to using a cleaning product that didn’t have a strong smell to it. The cleaner did its job well; it cleaned the furniture and removed the ‘Luna’ odors from the house.
The product we will be giving a way is a can of CLEAN+GREEN – Auto. All you need to do is comment on this post telling me how cute you think Luna is… just kidding, that’s too easy! Just leave a comment and we will select a name on Monday the 19th.
