April 21, 2015 By Dana White 29 Comments

I have e-books. I've come up with ways to keep my home under control, to be able to let non-immediate-family members come inside on a weekly basis. I can tackle a decluttering project with confidence and know I'll make progress (if not finish) in whatever time I throw at it. I share all these things (and all the times I fail) with you here on … [Read more...]

Allergic to Paper

April 16, 2015 By Dana White 9 Comments

When I was a kid, I told people I was allergic to coconut. I wasn't. Don't worry. I'm appropriately remorseful now. I just didn't want to eat coconut and it was a great way to get people to stop pushing their macaroons on me. Now, I really am allergic to chocolate. Really. It's an allergy I developed in college, and my mother has the … [Read more...]

Why I Purchase Chicken in Bulk

April 13, 2015 By Dana White 15 Comments

Full Disclosure: Even though I've written about my love of purchasing chicken in bulk from Zaycon many, many times, they offered me a product from their extensive line for writing about it again. I jumped at that chance. I'm also using my own referral link so I can build up credit for my next chicken purchase. You can do the same thing by referring … [Read more...]

Using the Awkward Pauses

April 10, 2015 By Dana White 20 Comments

I don't like awkward pauses. I'm that person who fills the seven-minute-lull in party conversations with sometimes-funny-sometimes-not remarks. This school year has been full of awkward pauses as we haven't been able to develop a rhythm to our days. I'm blaming Junior High. The year started with football before school, leaving the house at 6:30 … [Read more...]

Finally Decluttered. I’m Pretty Sure We’ve Officially Tried Everything Now

April 7, 2015 By Dana White 19 Comments

Ahhhhh, that cute bench. That bench I ordered from eBay years ago, and was sure would solve our shoe storage issues. Back in 2012, I finally accepted that instead of collecting shoes, it was collecting stuff. It was a catch-all spot that I couldn't keep clear, so I got rid of it. That was a wise decision. I haven't missed it in that … [Read more...]
