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...]

Daily Checklist? Even When I’m Sick?

December 11, 2011 By Dana White | 5 Comments

There's the big question. As someone who LOVES excuses, the I-don't-feel-so-good one is tops on my list. We've had a strange stomach virus move through the family this week.  It hasn't involved any vomiting, but it's hit each one of us, ending (hopefully) with me yesterday. It's definitely something going around.  Something that makes … [Read more...]

Friday Night Randomness

December 9, 2011 By Dana White | Leave a Comment

It's Friday night, and I'm only posting because of my Daily in December promise. Honestly, the promise is serving its purpose. I can find soooo many reasons to not do my Daily Checklist on these December days, but that commitment makes me do it, and the house looks so much better because I do. Today, I made my bed. Then, I left for most of … [Read more...]

Words I Love that Don’t Love Me

December 8, 2011 By Dana White | 10 Comments

I love the word versatile. It doesn't love me. This one-sided relationship results in me dumping all sorts of things in my exceptionally versatile office/game-room/guest-room. SO many things can justifiably be dumped in one of those three rooms.  And when those three rooms are really one big room, the results are not good. Oh, and I … [Read more...]

The Daily Checklist as a Mood Enhancer?

December 7, 2011 By Dana White | 4 Comments

I'm feeling rather bleh today. It's been that way all day. Like . . . I noticed fifteen minutes into my thirty minute drive to Bible study this morning that I wasn't wearing any makeup. Now, I may have no problem stopping by the store foundation-free and with a touch of bedhair. But I do not, ever, go to a real … [Read more...]

How to Use a Self-Cleaning Oven

December 6, 2011 By Dana White | 46 Comments

I was scared of using my self-cleaning oven. But I was even more scared of someone seeing the inside of it. When I created the Kitchen Cleaning Checklist last week, I knew it was time to take the leap and figure out how to use a self-cleaning oven. It was easy.  Not magic, but easy. First of all, I would advise that you read over your … [Read more...]

The Key to a Successful Daily Housekeeping Routine

December 5, 2011 By Dana White | 9 Comments

Do it daily. Earth-shattering, right? I committed last week to do my Daily Checklist . . . Daily in December. It's awful that I had to commit to that, since the "Daily" part should mean that I naturally do it every day anyway. But I guess if things like noticing clutter in the bathroom or closing cabinet doors were natural to me, I … [Read more...]

November ’11 Decluttering Update

December 4, 2011 By Dana White | 4 Comments

It's hard to believe that November is over and that the next time I do a decluttering update it will be 2012. Weren't we supposed to have flying cars and robot maids by now? Confession:  I didn't do a whole lot of decluttering in November.  And I'm feeling that panic in my chest. That seriously-I'm-just-going-to-throw-it-ALL-away … [Read more...]
