The Desk is GONE(ish)!

February 29, 2012 By Dana White | 8 Comments

A few minutes ago, I headed over to read the rules for the final link-up in the 29 Day Organizing Challenge at Org Junkie. I was in a rather bad mood that I had to hurry and write a post about an unfinished project before this (crazy and busy) month ends in a few hours. I stopped reading after I saw #7.  "Your deadline for adding your entry … [Read more...]

Parting at the Half-Way Point

February 28, 2012 By Dana White | 24 Comments

Those are Barbie Valentines.  The extra four or five that we didn’t need. I’m overly proud of myself for throwing them in the trash on February 15th. A few weeks ago, I had lunch at a restaurant with my best friend.  (Yes, I realize this SEEMS to be a totally unrelated story.) There was a mix-up with the check, and they had to re-do it and … [Read more...]

The Basics are How It’s Done

February 27, 2012 By Dana White | 10 Comments

  I'm not perfect. That's pretty obvious, right? Last week, with one day spent at the zoo, two days devoted to prepping for my first speaking engagement, one day out of the house for Bible Study, and the final day of the five-day week spent frantically working on blog stuff . . . . the house got a little crazy.  (See how I make it … [Read more...]

Our Second Week of Veggie Overload

February 26, 2012 By Dana White | 28 Comments

In last week's menu plan, I didn't mention that the meals were actually what I was planning for the kids and that Hubby and I were going on what I call a Crazy Diet.  Really, it's a liver-cleanse-thing his doctor recommended where we eat only fruits and veggies. For two whole weeks. I didn't mention it because I was in a rather bad mood about … [Read more...]

I Did SOMEthing in the Gameroom, OK?

February 24, 2012 By Dana White | 19 Comments

Have I mentioned that I'm extra-busy this week? Well, I am. And yet . . . there's this 29 Day Organizing Challenge I said I was doing. And the whole I-have-a-blog-and-told-the-world-I-was-going-to-get-that-room-figured-out-this-month thing. I'm being purposefully delusional that I'll be able to get it finished next week. But alas, … [Read more...]

Breaking the Clutter-Guilt Cycle

February 21, 2012 By Dana White | 50 Comments

I've written about how I had to get over the guilt of decluttering things that were given/handed-down to me. I've accepted it as the givEE. But what about as the givER?  What about when it's my daughter wanting to get rid of something I gave her? My daughter loves-like-a-mommy all of her (many) dolls.  When she decides she's okay  parting … [Read more...]

DIY Furniture Moving Sliders {Cheap Organizing Tricks}

February 20, 2012 By Dana White | 17 Comments

Sometimes . . . decluttering/organizing requires furniture-moving. Sometimes . . . the motivation to move furniture hits when big, strong (handsome and hairy) men aren't available to help. Everytime . . . motivation related to decluttering/organizing must not be stifled.  It's just too elusive. When I need to move furniture, I place … [Read more...]

Mediocre Cheesy Potato Soup

February 19, 2012 By Dana White | 5 Comments

At 5:17 yesterday, I wandered into the kitchen, suffering from the munchies and completely unaware of the time. Hubby asked if I was making supper. I looked at him like he was crazy.  I mean, it was nowhere near time to think about supper . . . right? Except that 5:17 kind of is time to at least think about it.  I had no concept of time … [Read more...]
