My Steam Mop Fantasy (Or is It Reality?)

November 18, 2011 By Dana White |

I've dreamed of having a steam mop for years.  Surely . . . if I had a steam mop, my house would be clean. All the time. Cleaning would be fun and easy and motivation would be plentiful. Right? Over the past two years of figuring out my Slob Brain, I've realized that no tool or system is going to clean my house.  I have to clean my … [Read more...]

It’s That Kind of Day

November 17, 2011 By Dana White | 8 Comments

It's after 8 p.m. and I haven't posted yet today.  I had big plans to put up my review/giveaway of the Oreck Steam Mop. At this point, I don't know that that will happen until tomorrow. And . . . I broke my mug. Actually, it's hubby's Elvis mug that he received as a gift a few years ago, but I'm the one who drinks out of it every single … [Read more...]

So THAT’S How Those Got in There . . .

November 16, 2011 By Dana White | 7 Comments

My Slob Brain is often a mystery to me.  Most of my decluttering efforts involve head-shaking and eye-rolling as I discover things that have no reason to be where they are. Like DVDs in the bathroom drawer. Or toothbrushes in the TV cabinet. But Monday, I caught one of these unexplainable misplacements in action. I was emptying the … [Read more...]

Oops. I Guess It’s Time To Clean Out that Drawer

November 15, 2011 By Dana White | 13 Comments

Last Friday night, as hubby was lovingly frying fish for dinner, he asked for tongs. Right at the moment when he needed them. I decided to not be irritated since I would do the exact same thing.  Of course, it so happened that I had used the tongs to cook supper the night before and then left immediately for a rehearsal. Which meant I … [Read more...]

Conviction, Priorities, and Purpose

November 14, 2011 By Dana White | 12 Comments

Loaded title, huh? I wrote out a plan for last week.  It helped. Really, it did. Not that I ever looked at it again or printed it out so I could use a pen to cross things off. It was more about thinking ahead.  Accepting that even though Tuesdays and Wednesdays are taken up with commitments, not letting the other three days just happen … [Read more...]

Skillet Lasagna Recipe – and My Menu Plan

November 13, 2011 By Dana White | 16 Comments

One of the first recipes I found after discovering the world of blogs was Skillet Lasagna.  I wish I could remember where I found it, but I've been making it from memory for years now. To say that this is a family favorite is an understatement.  The kids love it. Here's my recipe (which is more like instructions): Ingredients - … [Read more...]

Earning While Cleaning . . .

November 11, 2011 By Dana White | 11 Comments

Ever wondered how you could make toilet-cleaning profitable? I mentioned a while back that a woman at my church went crazy when she saw my Swagbucks t-shirt.  She LOVES Swagbucks, and earns TONS of Amazon gift cards from them.  (Not literal tons, of course . . . since the "gift cards" are sent by email.) I was intrigued because I had only … [Read more...]

Ten Things I Can Do Today So I’ll Feel Like Less of a Slob Tomorrow

November 10, 2011 By Dana White | 25 Comments

How tired are y'all of hearing how overwhelmed I am? Wait . . . don't answer that. Yesterday was Wednesday, always my craziest day of the week, and had the addition of a rehearsal that got me home at 10:45ish last night. Yesterday afternoon, after convincing myself that I deserved an hour of uninterrupted chill that was then consistently … [Read more...]
