Oh. One thing I didn't mention in my Gameroom Reveal post yesterday (that might have made a slight difference in the overall look of the room . . . ) was that I emptied the Donate Spot. Yes. I do believe it made a difference. I actually cleared it … [Read more...]
The Big Stuff is Done! (Gameroom Update)
I started out behind on the February Organizing Challenge over at Org Junkie. My first post was written on Feb 2nd, and the challenge started on the first. I feel like everything I did throughout the month for the challenge was a last-minute struggle and was always the minimal amount I could justify doing. And yet, here at the end . . . I'm … [Read more...]
The Desk is GONE(ish)!
A few minutes ago, I headed over to read the rules for the final link-up in the 29 Day Organizing Challenge at Org Junkie. I was in a rather bad mood that I had to hurry and write a post about an unfinished project before this (crazy and busy) month ends in a few hours. I stopped reading after I saw #7. "Your deadline for adding your entry … [Read more...]
Parting at the Half-Way Point
Those are Barbie Valentines. The extra four or five that we didn’t need. I’m overly proud of myself for throwing them in the trash on February 15th. A few weeks ago, I had lunch at a restaurant with my best friend. (Yes, I realize this SEEMS to be a totally unrelated story.) There was a mix-up with the check, and they had to re-do it and … [Read more...]
The Basics are How It’s Done
I'm not perfect. That's pretty obvious, right? Last week, with one day spent at the zoo, two days devoted to prepping for my first speaking engagement, one day out of the house for Bible Study, and the final day of the five-day week spent frantically working on blog stuff . . . . the house got a little crazy. (See how I make it … [Read more...]
Our Second Week of Veggie Overload
In last week's menu plan, I didn't mention that the meals were actually what I was planning for the kids and that Hubby and I were going on what I call a Crazy Diet. Really, it's a liver-cleanse-thing his doctor recommended where we eat only fruits and veggies. For two whole weeks. I didn't mention it because I was in a rather bad mood about … [Read more...]
I Did SOMEthing in the Gameroom, OK?
Have I mentioned that I'm extra-busy this week? Well, I am. And yet . . . there's this 29 Day Organizing Challenge I said I was doing. And the whole I-have-a-blog-and-told-the-world-I-was-going-to-get-that-room-figured-out-this-month thing. I'm being purposefully delusional that I'll be able to get it finished next week. But alas, … [Read more...]
Only One More Week in February!
NOTE: 28 Days is retired - For detailed guides, check out my books: How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind and Decluttering at the Speed of Life. Don't forget that my e-book, 28 Days to Hope for Your Home, is on sale for 4$ through the end of February! Sale is Now Over. If you're on the fence about it, I thought I'd share some … [Read more...]
Breaking the Clutter-Guilt Cycle
I've written about how I had to get over the guilt of decluttering things that were given/handed-down to me. I've accepted it as the givEE. But what about as the givER? What about when it's my daughter wanting to get rid of something I gave her? My daughter loves-like-a-mommy all of her (many) dolls. When she decides she's okay parting … [Read more...]
