New Non-Negotiable for the Week

January 18, 2010 By Dana White | 26 Comments

I really liked the checklist that I created last week. First let me make my excuses. I made the chart to start with Sunday. But I made it on Sunday, and then started using it on Monday, not paying any attention to how I had made the chart (even though I made it less than 24 hrs before). You can see on the chart that I did well on Monday and … [Read more...]

Daily Checklist

January 18, 2010 By Dana White | 1 Comment

Four day weekend. You can probably guess what I'm going to say. Yes, you're right. I stink at keeping a household routine going when there is no routine. But today I did do a little here and there. I'm really not capable of doing this without following my list of daily tasks. … [Read more...]

Our Last Official Week of Eating from the Pantry

January 18, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

This is it. A week from today is . . . PAYDAY!!! When I heard about the Pantry Challenge that Moneysavingmom and Lifeasmom were hosting, I decided to do it because it was something I had been thinking about anyway. January is always a difficult month for the grocery budget since hubby gets paid early in December, and this adds at least an … [Read more...]

I’ll Declutter . . . But Do I Have to Give Up ALL my Dreams?

January 15, 2010 By Dana White | 16 Comments

I worked some more in the kitchen today. As I've said before, finding a place for everything sounds nice, but it's a LOT of work. I began by looking for a place to put the Dollar Tree glasses that I washed yesterday. I ventured into an upper cabinet in a totally inconvenient place that I consistently forget exists. Good place for these … [Read more...]

Pantry Challenge is Making me a Little Nervous

January 15, 2010 By Dana White | 4 Comments

I'm getting nervous. My convenience foods are disappearing. The cupboard and the fridge are beginning to look especially bare. The freezer is getting there. This is what I wanted to do. But convenience food is so . . . . convenient. My mother grew up on a farm. She had a disdain for convenience food that she passed down to me . Things should … [Read more...]

Bringing Beauty Out of Hiding

January 14, 2010 By Dana White | 27 Comments

I started doing some random decluttering this morning, and ended up very happy with big results. I began by moving some glass goblets that I had purchased at the Dollar Tree a while back because I "didn't have any nice glasses to use with my formal china." I learned this three Thanksgivings ago when we used our formal china for the first and … [Read more...]
