Works For Me: Thinking About Next Week

WfmwheaderI'm skipping out on posting my own Works-For-Me-Wednesday tip this week, because I wanted to use the space to tell you about a fun idea for next week's themed WFMW.

Next Wednesday, October 3rd, is Backwards Day in WFMW-Land.  Instead of giving a tip, you'll ask for one, on a very specific subject.  You'll be inviting all the WFMW readers to weigh in with their clever solutions to your most stubborn problems. 

For example:

"What's an effective disciplinary tool for a six year old with a sassy mouth?"

--or--

"How do I get Sharpie marker off my coffee table?"

Not that any of those issues have ever plagued the Dryer house.  Oh, no-o-o.

Be thinking of what you'd like to ask Bloggityville next week, and keep in my mind that more specific questions will likely elicit more responses.  We aren't trying to solve the mysteries of the universe here, girls, we just need a little help with laundry stain removal and backpack storage.

But back to this week--leave your clever WFMW tips below, and be sure to check in with the guidelines here first.  Remember to link directly to your WFMW post, not to the front page of your blog.
