Decluttering in the Master Bedroom with Normal Friend – With Webisode

September 22, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

  I guess I could just call this "Normal Friend" week, huh? Really, though, the work that we got done when she was here for three hours last Friday was (at least) a week's worth of work for me. I'm so . . . incredibly . . . grateful. Anyway, the final thing that we did before she left was to shoot a webisode.  Probably not the … [Read more...]

The Doorbell is My Friend

September 21, 2011 By Dana White | 1 Comment

Two years ago (almost exactly), I volunteered to host a Sunday evening home group for our church. As in, every single Sunday. As in, people coming into my home . . . every single Sunday. It was a risk, but I had been at the deslobification thing for about a month at that point, and I had hope that maybe I could handle it.  And I knew that … [Read more...]

It’s an Honor Just to Be Nominated . . .

September 21, 2011 By Dana White | 11 Comments

Not really . . . I want to WIN! Don't just think of it as a vote for me, think of it as a vote for slobs everywhere. Even though, really . . . it's a vote for just me. Anyway, I'd love it if you could take the two seconds necessary to go vote for me.  I've been nominated (I assume by one of you) for Circle of Mom's Top 25 Home Management … [Read more...]

Watching Normal People Clean – Part Two

September 20, 2011 By Dana White | 39 Comments

Yesterday, I shared about my normal friend who felt pity for me and asked if she could come over to help me clean.  She phrased it as "helping me get caught up after summer." However she wanted to see it, I was grateful for the help. Since it was her.  I can count on one hand the number of people whom I would "let" help me clean my master … [Read more...]

Watching Normal People Clean

September 19, 2011 By Dana White | 34 Comments

On Friday I mentioned over on my Facebook page that my normal friend had come over to help me clean my master bedroom. You know on cartoons where there's one character who moves slowly while the Tasmanian Devil is a blur all around?  That's pretty much what it felt like. Honestly, watching her was fascinating.  When I could get my eyes to … [Read more...]

How to Make Caramelized Onions

September 18, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I am thankful that,  for the most part, Hubby and I have the same likes and dislikes when it comes to food. I fully understand how lucky I am. It's our standard to say "No raw onions or tomatoes, please" when asked what we like.  Which adds irony to the fact that after our wedding, the person who packed a meal for us from the buffet (that we … [Read more...]

The (Fine) Line Between Slob and Hoarder

September 16, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I get quite a few visits to this site each week from people searching something like "What is the difference between a hoarder and a slob?" As a slob who has had rooms that could get me on a show of that name, it's a question that has crossed my mind many times. Some days I think "I'm not that bad" and others I realize that I could easily get … [Read more...]

That Spot? Again?

September 15, 2011 By Dana White | 10 Comments

Sometimes, knowing that I've showed the transformation of this same spot umpteen times makes blogging get on my nerves. While the first time, I was proud of myself, and the second time I was able to grasp how this was a real problem spot and the third time I was amazed that it was such a quick fix . . . by the sixteenth time, I'm just … [Read more...]

I Cleaned the Playroom . . . and That’s It

September 14, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

Meaning, I cleaned it without having to first de-clutter for hours. Such a weird feeling.  I hate to say it (because of the dread that it will immediately fall victim to my kids playing "Hoarders"), but I think . . .maybe . . .  that last decluttering/organization worked. Can I just say that this whole "cleaning like normal people do" thing … [Read more...]

A Slob Comes Clean is the completely honest (and never-ending) story of my deslobification process. As I find ways to keep my home under control, I share the truth about cleaning and organization methods that actually work for a real-life slob. And I'm funny.
