Give Me a Couch, and I’ll Kick Stuff Under It (Working Through Overwhelming Clutter in a Hurry)

May 30, 2016 By Dana White | 8 Comments

It's déjà vu, y'all. (And yes, I had to google how to spell déjà vu and then copy/paste it to get the marks correct.) Remember a while back when I revealed the scary underbelly of my living room couch? And then remember when I had to let washing machine delivery men into the house just hours after I returned from a trip? Well, my age-old … [Read more...]

Because They Just Don’t Care as Much as I Do

May 27, 2016 By Dana White | 13 Comments

A better blogger might name this post "Labeling Shampoo and Conditioner Bottles to Keep Teenage Boys from Washing their Hair With Conditioner," but I have a very hard time believing anyone would search for that. In case you're one to follow along closely, you know about our broken shower. Which might mean that when I mention it's still … [Read more...]

The After After Post About the Laundry Room

May 25, 2016 By Dana White | 8 Comments

I promised a real before-and-after post about my laundry room. Because here was the real before picture of one thing that had been in my way in the laundry room for weeks months: My rolling cart which never fit after I got my last washing machine. I had been moving it out of the laundry room every Laundry Day. Then I'd leave it out in the … [Read more...]

The Good and Bad of Cleaning with Baking Soda

May 23, 2016 By Dana White | 26 Comments

Baking Soda is awesome, y'all. I use it all the time to clean stains off my counter tops. My somewhat-old-fashioned, non-granite counter tops. Y'all convinced me here, and then I became a believer here. But even though baking soda is perfect for cleaning a lot of things and is safe enough to use in cookies (which means you actually EAT … [Read more...]

Dealing with Rust Stains on My Stainless Steel Appliances

May 18, 2016 By Dana White | 7 Comments

About four years ago, I got stainless steel appliances. I love them, but they are definitely hard to clean. To clarify, though, I'm not one to notice little smudges here and there so all appliances of any finish or color or type are "hard to clean" for me. I generally don't see any issues until I know a guest is on her way. For the first … [Read more...]

Another Favorite Delusion: Tomorrow, I’ll Be a Potato Farmer

May 15, 2016 By Dana White | 15 Comments

Oh my word, y'all. I abound with delusions. All sorts of them. Someday, I'll be crafty, efficient, excited to exercise, and who knows what else. When these potatoes started sprouting, it seemed like a great idea to hold onto them and start potato farming. I mean, I saw an instructional video years ago that sounded like it was super easy and … [Read more...]

Decluttering Duhs: The Stink Test

May 12, 2016 By Dana White | 14 Comments

I loved these shoes. Loved them. Hubby gave them to me for Christmas a year and a half ago. Somehow, he knew exactly what I wanted. (Maybe because I ordered them myself.) I bought them before we spent Christmas at Disney World because I knew there might be capri days. Y'know. Days when it was too cool for shorts but too warm for long … [Read more...]
