Run out of dish soap? No problem you can get through that
load of dishes easily so that it doesn't sit there until
you get back from the store, by just mixing three parts
water together with one part lemon juice. Spray the
mixture onto your dishes. The lemon juice will cut through
grease and grime with no hassles, then simply rinse with
hot water! 
Do you have trouble rinsing the shower after you've
cleaned it, well grab your watering can; it will be easy
to direct water right where you need it. 
Do you have to dig through your linen closet to find
matching linens? Here is an easy way to solve that
problem. Fold the top and bottom sheet and one pillowcase
then slip the three into a second pillowcase. This way the
sets will always be together. If you have an extra set of
pillowcases, lay them on top of each other and fold them
as one. 
If you have sticky drawers, try aiming your hairdryer at
them for a few minutes. The sticking is most likely caused
by excess moisture and the hairdryer will eliminate the
problem. Once the drawer is sliding easily coat the
runners with some paste wax to keep it sliding.
