More Freezer Cooking Plans!

April 30, 2010 By Dana White | 8 Comments

I've done this for several months now, and I find it quite funny that just as hubby ran out of breakfast pockets, Money Saving Mom is doing another Freezer Cooking Days. So . . . um . . . obviously I'm doing more breakfast pockets. I made them with ham, eggs and cheese last time, but this time I bought some HOT breakfast sausage to use as the … [Read more...]

My Vacuum Cleaner’s New Frontier

April 30, 2010 By Dana White | 2 Comments

It's Friday . . . so I dusted and vacuumed.  In the past two months or so of this new Task-a-Day thing, I've developed a bit of a method for vacuuming my house.   Since all the main areas of the house have hardwood floors, I go through first with the broom and get the corners and edges swept out into the middle of the floor.  Then I can vacuum … [Read more...]

Laundry Day’s Fatal Flaw

April 29, 2010 By Dana White | 9 Comments

So I'm loving laundry day. Mostly the lack of the nagging I-should-be-doing-laundry-right-now feeling. It's an almost perfect plan. Focus for one day. Forget it - sans guilt - for the other six. I've even proven that I can do it on days when we have a field trip to the zoo. Nothing's stopping me now, right? Right? Nothing except … [Read more...]

Daily Checklist

April 29, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

Today has been better than yesterday's Day of Funk. I made my bed when I got up . . . a good sign.I emptied the dishwasher, cleaned up the kitchen after last night's excessively messy rice-krispies-as-a-chicken-coating episode. (Do NOT get distracted while crushing rice krispies with the bottom of a cup and talking to your husband on the phone and … [Read more...]

Curing My Funk

April 28, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

Me and my moods. I call this a funk. It's not like I'm down or anything, I just don't feel like doing anything. I'm tired, run-down, listless . . . maybe I need some Vitametavegamin? It isn't that anything is wrong. It's a normal crazy Wednesday. I discovered while sitting in my discussion group at my Bible Study that I had finished last … [Read more...]

Accepting How I Learn

April 27, 2010 By Dana White | 101 Comments

  First, let me clarify a few things. 1. Flylady is awesome.  When people ask me for advice here, I try to make it clear that I'm no expert when it comes to cleaning, organizing, etc. and I generally send them her way.  If you want to know what it takes to get your house under control, she's your woman.  And she'll tell you exactly … [Read more...]

The Beginning of the End

April 26, 2010 By Dana White | 3 Comments

Today I accompanied my son's kindergarten class to the zoo. It was a gorgeous day, and we had a great time. The weather is beginning to border on "hot" at certain points, and I must say that I was a bit envious of those otters splashing around. I'm so ready for summer. There are now only five weeks left of school, and they are full. Almost … [Read more...]

No Magic Formulas

April 26, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

Do you ever wish you would just learn your lesson and never have to be taught it again? Tonight, as I de-disaster-ized my home before our home group arrived, I was surprised that I was surprised at how bad it had gotten. What did I expect when I had done exactly nothing to it in three days? I was thankful that it was recoverable, due to the major … [Read more...]

Standing on the Edge of the Cliff

April 23, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

It's been one of those weeks.  One of those like we all have.  My house has been toward the bottom of the priority list. On Monday, I got all of our laundry done.  On Tuesday, I cleaned the bathrooms quickly since there was a school assembly to attend and a little boy to pick up for lunch on his "liquid diet" day.  On Wednesday, we spent most of … [Read more...]
