Another Day in December

December 20, 2011 By Dana White | 1 Comment

Let's just say the house looks much better tonight than it did when we got home late last night. I know that many normal people feel the need to have their house in order before leaving town for a few days, but I guess my deslobification process hasn't gotten that far yet. When Friday is a half day of school, hubby and the kids come home with … [Read more...]

Cleaning Someone Else’s Home

December 19, 2011 By Dana White | 12 Comments

We spent the weekend with my extended family at the lake.  Because my parents (whose house we stayed in) had to leave to catch a plane, we offered to stay an extra day and do the cleaning up since hubby and the kids are already on Christmas break. Thankfully, no one raised an eyebrow at the irony that “Nony the Slob” was staying to do the … [Read more...]

It’s Party Time! (And My White Queso Recipe)

December 18, 2011 By Dana White | 1 Comment

This party dip recipe is fairly common, but I've had so many people ask for the recipe at Christmas parties this year that I thought I'd post it. It is sometimes called White Queso. (That's a red chip.) Ingredients: 8 oz. Cream Cheese 1 can ro-tel (canned diced tomatoes and green chilis) One pound breakfast sausage Brown the breakfast … [Read more...]

Taking a Break – and Some Swagbucks News

December 16, 2011 By Dana White | 1 Comment

Just a note to let you know that I'm taking a break from blogging this weekend, but I'll still be washing dishes and sweeping and such. Really, I will. I thought I'd share this info I recently received from Swagbucks: "Swagbucks is going crazy on Monday, with more ways for you to earn reward points towards free stuff. First, they're … [Read more...]

Fast and Furious Decluttering Project

December 15, 2011 By Dana White | 11 Comments

Last week, I shared my One Shelf Project from the week before. The project that I had desperately hoped was just a small piece of the big picture.

Clean or Write?

December 14, 2011 By Dana White | 1 Comment

I had a dilemma today. I could write the introspective, thought-provoking post that had been rattling around in my head all day as I drove from place to place. Or . . . I could do my daily checklist. The 5% of me that knew I should do the checklist won out over the 95% of me that would much rather write than clean. Always. Obviously, … [Read more...]

Daily in December (Who Came Up with THIS Idea?)

December 13, 2011 By Dana White | 2 Comments

My December day included: Breathing a sigh of relief that the Stomach Bug from You-Know-Where hadn't struck any new victims during the night.  The night when our plumbing backed up at just the point when it was too late to call the plumber. Remembering that I couldn't empty the dishwasher since I couldn't run it the night before (y'know, the … [Read more...]

Survival Mode Checklist

December 12, 2011 By Dana White | 3 Comments

Soooo, I thought I was better and that this stomach bug from a-very-hot-place was done. I was wrong. I've been obsessively washing my hands, and trying to take it easy while getting some writing done for the week.  Which is easier said than done, since my favorite 8yo editor is also home sick.  He's full of curious questions and assumes that … [Read more...]

Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe

December 11, 2011 By Dana White | 10 Comments

I'm sharing the world's best tortilla soup recipe. Yes, I can call it that because I've eaten it on both sides of the planet. The year before my first year in Thailand, there were two other teachers from Texas at the school where I taught.  They were gone when I got there, but my roommates raved about their tortilla soup recipe.  When the … [Read more...]
