For some families summer means vacations, relaxing by the pool, playing a bingo game and sleeping in. However, things are different at our house. We get up and go and yes we have vacations and pool time. We also have camp, day trips, gardening, festivals and more. This is the way we love to live our lives. However, sometimes things do not go smoothly. Life throws in some bumps and hurdles to slow you down.

We’ve all been there. It’s time to get out of the house and the kids are fighting, the phone is ringing and the dishwasher is leaking on the kitchen floor. Whether this is the exact scenario or you switch out the kids for the cats, all families struggle with road blocks at any given time. These moments don’t need to stop us in our tracks. Families need to learn to use the tools we have to get over the bumps and hurdles and keep our days and lives going.

This is where a tool like Drano® Snake Plus comes in. Drano® Snake Plus is a brand new, innovative product that resolves the toughest clogs the first time, guaranteed or it’s free!* Drano® Snake Plus combines a flexible, easy-to-use 18-inch tool with a powerful pro concentrate gel, the thickest and most powerful gel from Drano® that clings directly to the clog, quickly dissolving it. The advanced nature of the tool and gel combo will help families avoid wasting time and money on unplanned trips to the store and visits from the plumber.

Our family is excited to partner with SC Johnson and talk about how we unclog our days to keep our lives running as smoothly as possible. Every couple of weeks we’ll share a new method we use to stay on course, keep organized and remain sane. Feel free to use these tips, improve them or share your own.
