I shared a lengthy and somewhat philosophical idea for a keepable resolution yesterday. Today, I'm keeping it short and sweet. Get rid of stuff you hate. I know. Nice people aren't supposed to use that word. We're supposed to love everyone and everything. That applies to people, for sure, but as a slob I tend to take this sentiment too far … [Read more...]
Keepable Resolution: Live In Your Home
I'm a fan of living in reality. It's reality that most New Year's Resolutions fizzle by January 3rd. I rarely even bother making them anymore. But with the start of a new year, desire for improvement happens. I'm suggesting a resolution for those who can't resist making one: Live in Your Home Anybody can do that, right? Barring … [Read more...]

My New Fancy-Schmancy Toilet and #SqueakyCleanBath sponsored by The Home Depot
This post is sponsored by The Home Depot. When we were looking for houses, the number of bathrooms wasn't a concern. I always clicked "2 or more" on the real estate website search. I'd never lived in a house with more than two potties, so I didn't see it as something I needed. When this house had an additional half-bath, it was a … [Read more...]
Uncle Clint’s Desk – Accepting Hand Me Down Furniture (Without Cluttering Up My House!)
I am so excited to get a "new" desk! It's not new at all, and it isn't even new to me! It was in my room as a child. I do love furniture that's free and nice. But I don't like not being able to walk through my house. So before I said I wanted it, I took a moment to figure out which furniture piece I'd have to replace to have a spot for it. I … [Read more...]

What to Do With Christmas Cards
Sentimental clutter is stressful. Stacks of sentimental pieces of paper with no practical use can send a sentimental slob right over the edge. Personally, I've pretty much gotten over that. Pretty much. I tend (which means it's not a plan, just something that happens) to display the current year's Christmas cards for the month of … [Read more...]
Do You Know Where You Can Stuff All Your Great Ideas?
Wait. What? You're offended? Wha . . . ? Oh. When I said "Do you know where you can stuff all your great ideas?" . . . you thought I meant . . . ? Well, I'm just shocked. Shocked, I tell ya. I simply am asking a logical question about whether you have storage space for your great ideas. OK. Not really. That IS what I'm asking, … [Read more...]
