I know. You come here expecting to read about cleaning, organizing, or maintaining. But this week, I haven't even thought about cleaning, organizing or maintaining. Instead, I've been directing a musical-in-a-week camp. So today, I'm sharing a little advice on how to prepare for a water balloon fight. Because slobs tend to be fun and … [Read more...]
What if You Are Ten Minutes from Success?
I'm overwhelmed right now. I returned home Sunday night from the Savvy Blogging Summit with my head still spinning from everything I learned. Everything I could do, should do, and would love to do. And I look at my home and see many MANY things that I could do, should do, and would love to do. Monday morning, as I still felt the … [Read more...]
Decluttering Decisions are Personal
When my husband gathered up trash this morning, and picked up this newly-broken lamp . . . I felt the familiar pang in my chest. Am I really going to put that lamp in the trash? But I love that lamp! LovED that lamp. Because now, of course, it's broken. When I arrived home Sunday evening from my trip, I was brought back to Mama … [Read more...]
Oh, That’s Right! It’s Monday . . .
My days are all confused. I am bone weary from my non-stop learning at the Savvy Blogging Summit, and haven't quite registered that today is the beginning of a brand new week. But when this pile outside my laundry room caught my eye, I realized that today is Monday. Because Monday is Laundry Day. And today is the day when hubby knows … [Read more...]
Creamy Chicken and Spinach Enchilada Recipe
I'm tired. Crazy tired from my fun, mind-boggling, and totally-worth-it trip to the Savvy Blogging Summit. A menu plan is the last thing on my mind, but I know I'll be grateful for this blogging-for-accountability thing tomorrow at 6:00 p.m. if I can get one done tonight. And in an effort to not have to use too many overworked brain cells … [Read more...]
Introducing Myself as a Slob
I'm at the Savvy Blogging Summit, and that's my view as I write this morning. This very early morning when I should be sleeping, but can't. Perhaps that is due to my still-spinning head after only a half-day in the presence of blogging greatness. It's fun (and frightening) to go into a situation where I openly introduce myself as Nony the … [Read more...]
Tunnel-Vision – (I Like It!)
I've had tunnel-vision lately. It's a good thing, and a bad thing. Honestly, I like it. In dealing with my Slob Problem, balance is my biggest challenge. When my house is under control, my brain is free to be creative, and I can do small projects here and there more easily because I don't have to clear a spot or dig around (as much) to … [Read more...]
My Bed: Our Home’s Housekeeping Barometer
Please note: I'm claiming artistic license more than scientific fact in this post. I'm okay with that. I think I have some sort of disability when it comes to caring about weather predictions. I can not watch the weather. I'm incapable. I've tried. There are times when I know inside my logical-grown-up brain that I need to find … [Read more...]
I’m Off to Learn More About Blogging (Way More)!
Later this week, I'll be heading to the Savvy Blogging Summit to learn more about how to improve this little ol' blog of mine. And I'm so very thankful that part of my trip is being sponsored by Clever Girls Collective. If you've been around here long, you know that I don't apologize for wanting this blog to be my gig. My paying gig. I … [Read more...]
