Life Hacks Ice Cubes in the Dryer get out wrinkles. Place half a dozen large ice cubes in with your load and your clothes will be wrinkle free, but not if you leave them over night. Pick up broken glass with white bread but will work equally well with wheat bread, its a life save for finding those little chips. Foil on your BananasJust when your bananas get to that perfect ripeness you can hold them for at least 4 to 5 days by wrapping foil around their tops. PVC pipe on your lawn blower so you can clean out your gutter. Brilliant right! Clean your microwave with lemon probably could of guessed this one, but am so grateful for something that smells better to clean my microwave. Pen spring around cords for USB and chargers will stop them from fraying. If your extra savvy you can wrap it again with tape and gently melt the tape to the spring. Improve your wifi with an used soda can; I can hear a thousand little tech geeks saying “of course”, but lets face it, your minority and never around when we need you. Flip-Flop Fixer If you’ve ever had a flipflop pop out of place while you were walking, you’re going to greatly enjoy this simple hack. But, you’ll probably be a little peeved you didn’t think of it sooner. Strawberry Straw Push a stainless steel straw to the the bottom centre of a strawberry to remove the stem.

THINGS TO DO TO MARK HISTORY Right now we are living a very historical moment. Building a legacy or simple acts of kindness that help people stay connected through these times of separation is one of the things that will be reflected upon in the future. MAKE A PHOTO ALBUM. We don’t know
what 20, 50 or 100 years will be like from now, so we can’t rely on digital compatibility so its important to create some tangible history.
PHOTOS & VIDEOS. Other interesting photos are the signage telling us how we should live, lets capture some of that. Take pictures of what children have been doing, like coloured rocks, and chalk art on roads, all the hearts in houses, birthday parades, honouring the front line. Having a 6 ft separation meeting or gathering, what people did for hugs when they couldn’t touch. Create an album, you can even print it and turn it into a hardcover book using some online sources such as www.mixbook.com OR www.artifactuprising.com.

ting, dancing, colouring hair, and staying busy to block out some realities. Many lost track of what day it was, and what time of day it was, morning become night, night became day and so on. Record this with photos, videos, blogs, or stories. MAKE A LEGACY. Decide on a contribution you want to make to the world or to your community or family. Simple acts of kindness is a good place to start.
TIME CAPSULE. Many families do these when there is a milestone in their life. Create a COVID-19 time capsule that includes a record of time and thoughts during a pandemic. COLLECT MEMORANDUMS. Photos, poetry, games you played, a recipe that was popular or new, even some voice recordings. Personal goals, frustrations, fears and reflections. Anything that will tell the story of what way happening.
