Shameless – A Declutterer’s Gotta Do What a Declutterer’s Gotta Do

January 20, 2014 By Dana White | 85 Comments

Oh, the shamelessness. No make-up, eyebrows that need plucking, and sunlight reflecting perfectly off of a GRAY frizz-curl in the middle of my forehead. (The things I do for this blog . . . ) But I'm talking about the dust mask. I come from a line of dust-mask-wearers. My mother, Practical Peggy, always wore one when she vacuumed and … [Read more...]

Super-Duper Easy Pizza Casserole (Using Pre-Cooked Ground Beef)

January 19, 2014 By Dana White | 12 Comments

This post contains affiliate links. As you know, I've been using eMeals for over a year now. I've explained how I use the meal-planning service, but thought it might be good to show it in action. And . . . share a favorite recipe that I got from them. We're picky. We use the Aldi Classic Family Plan which has very basic meals, but there are … [Read more...]

Gone! (The 3rd Decluttering Party Report!)

January 17, 2014 By Dana White | 39 Comments

Aaaaahhhhhh. This week's report is going to be a short one. Let me go into great detail describing exactly what I did to get an entire truck full of STUFF out of my house this week. 1. I picked up my phone. 2. I looked for a certain saved contact. 3. I touched the screen one lil' 'ol time and it called that number. 4. I listened … [Read more...]

The MVP Concept and Decluttering

January 16, 2014 By Dana White | 29 Comments

  MVP means Most Valuable Player, right? Well, yes. In most contexts of my life. But recently, while listening to a podcast by Pat Flynn from Smart Passive Income, he and his guest casually referred to MVP in another way. In the entrepreneurial context, it means Minimum Viable Product. Huh? I was confused. But I think I've … [Read more...]

Let’s Talk Decluttering – Hangout – Kids’ Rooms

January 16, 2014 By Dana White | Leave a Comment

I thoroughly enjoyed today's hangout! It felt more interactive since I could more easily see the questions and comments. I did miss some, though, but I've copied/pasted them into a document so maybe we'll do one last hangout after January where I can catch up on them. Thanks to those who were there! Next week's hangout will be on decluttering … [Read more...]

Cleaning the Bathtub (Another Caused-By-a-Messy-Closet-Floor Project)

January 15, 2014 By Dana White | 11 Comments

Because I cleared the floor of my closet, I also cleaned my bathtub. Huh? The two don't seem related, but unfortunately they are. Bathroom Cleaning Day had been inhibited by the fact that I couldn't get to my bathtub easily. Chairs in front of the bathtub were piled with clothes because I couldn't get into the closet to put them away. I … [Read more...]

Putting It to Good Use

January 14, 2014 By Dana White | 33 Comments

There is a certain blanket that I tried to declutter many, many times. I called it my Bambi Blanket. I loved that blanket. It was always fluffy and cool and was the best for creating a warm cocoon on winter nights as a child. I didn't take it to college, but it somehow ended up in my own home soon after I had children. I envisioned it as a … [Read more...]

I Am Resourceful. Why Yes. I Am.

January 13, 2014 By Dana White | 12 Comments

I'm a problem solver. Often, though, I'm solving problems created by me. Blergh. While decluttering my closet last week, I ran across an example of my resourcefulness. A familiar example. I've had many versions of this handy-dandy homemade tool over the years. It's a hook. A hook made out of a wire hanger. The purpose? To get … [Read more...]
