The Sixteen Year Old Me Would Be Horrified . . .

February 27, 2013 By Dana White | 9 Comments

I remember myself as a delightful teenager. I suppose it is possible . . . though . . . that I wasn't. A still-dear friend once told me (years after high school) that she kept a journal of what she wore to church each week.  She did this out of fear.  She had heard me express disgust at the thought of someone wearing the same outfit two weeks … [Read more...]

Changing to a Real Food Diet?

February 26, 2013 By Dana White | 8 Comments

I'm sorry. This bundle is no longer available. I've told myself I'm not going to stress about posting this week since I'm kind of in a stop-everything-and-get-those-taxes-done-or-else position right now.  (Blogging is fun, doing taxes is not.) But when I remembered what this week's Bundle of the Week topic was, I thought I'd share it.  If … [Read more...]

Making Pancakes Over the Campfire

February 25, 2013 By Dana White | 5 Comments

Is anyone going camping over Spring Break? We (kind of) are.  We'll be at the lake, but with all the modern conveniences. I'll be honest.  I wasn't going to worry about writing a post today since I'm determined to get my taxes done this week.  (Yikes!) But then I saw a coupon for Bisquik and it reminded me of the BEST pancakes I've ever … [Read more...]

Playing Clutter Detective

February 24, 2013 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I KNEW there were lunch bags left. The empty plastic bag they came in was right in front of me.  And I had a vague memory of removing enough for at least that day. A vague memory from less than five minutes before. Side note: Please don't hate me for being un-green, but we use paper lunch sacks.  It's a survival technique for this Slob … [Read more...]

Not That Bad

February 22, 2013 By Dana White | 11 Comments

It's been one of those weeks.  Monday the kids were off of school so we traveled an hour to spend the day with friends.  Tuesday I was at the school all day helping count money for the upcoming fundraiser.  Wednesday I went to Bible Study. So when Thursday arrived and I finally was able to be home, I spent the day catching up on writing … [Read more...]

The Slob Stereotype (Fighting It and Fitting It)

February 21, 2013 By Dana White | 15 Comments

I find myself cringing when I hear the word "slob" being used. It's not used positively, and it's not supposed to be.  The dictionary includes "an insult" as part of the definition. Pre-blog, I never cringed when I heard the word, but that was because I didn't think of myself as one.  A big part of my process has been my dedication to … [Read more...]

Fighting the Fizzle (A Family Kitchen Clean Up Report)

February 20, 2013 By Dana White | 8 Comments

In the second week of January, we implemented Family Kitchen Clean Up Time. It has been a success. Every night we've been home, we've cleaned the kitchen together.  My 6yo daughter is officially our Lunch Maker, and my 11yo has improved his dishwasher-filling skills significantly. Honestly, doing Family Kitchen Clean Up hasn't been … [Read more...]

My Big Girl Undies

February 18, 2013 By Dana White | 51 Comments

I debated on that post title. Y'know, from a fear of unwanted search traffic . . . Anyway, I've been thinking a lot lately about an offhanded comment I heard on one of our new favorite TV shows. I don't generally take lifestyle advice from sitcoms, but this one really stuck with me.  Perhaps because it hit home. We mostly love the new … [Read more...]

Review of the Remote Key Finder by Click ‘N Dig

February 15, 2013 By Dana White | 12 Comments

This post contains affiliate links.   Back in December, after a longer-than-usual-and-totally-unsuccessful search for my car keys . . . I declared to the world that the only thing I really wanted for Christmas was a remote key finder that several of you mentioned in the comments. I was tickled to death that Click 'N Dig, the makers of … [Read more...]
