It's possible . . . . . . that someone is thinking, "Wow, she's right. That shelf is a mess. What a bad storage solution." The mess on the shelf isn't actually what I'm talking about. This ain't no organizational blog, Lady. Here's the deal. Today is Day Three of Snow Week. I wanted to create a … [Read more...]
Some Weeks You Make Progress . . . Some Weeks Not
Last week I made quite a bit of progress. I was on a roll. Before I knew it, I'd be at a point with nothing left to declutter and nothing left to write. And then this week happened. Hubby was sick on Monday. Tuesday was a legit Snow Day. Today, Wednesday, is a … [Read more...]
Involving Kids in Yard Work
It feels a little strange to be talking about working in the yard (in short-sleeves!) today, since it's crazy-cold outside, but two days ago, it was beautiful. Where we live, this is the time of year when the last of the leaves are falling off of the trees, and it's starting to bug me that I can't walk out of my front door without sloshing … [Read more...]
"The Donate Spot" and January’s Decluttering Link-Up
I've created a Donate Spot. It's far from ideal, because it isn't hidden completely away or contained within a cutesy basket. But it works. I finally had to designate a place and name it, because otherwise, my house is filled with piles. Piles that I see and think, "Hmmm, was that the stuff I wanted to get rid of, or the stuff I wanted … [Read more...]
My Million Dollar Idea
Last week was quite productive. It's amazing how much you can get done in a week when you have a sick-enough-to-be-stuck-at-home-but-not-the-kind-of-sick-that-makes-messes kid. While working on the laundry organization project, I pulled out my small vacuum that has the hoses and such so I could suck up the dust behind the dryer. I started to … [Read more...]
Menu Plan Monday – the Uninspired Edition
Have you seen my new Recipes page at the top of the page? I'm thankful for the motivation from Laura over at Orgjunkie to make one. She now has an ongoing link-up where bloggers can share their recipe pages. Such a fabulous resource of real-life recipes! I'm calling this the Uninspired Edition because I'm feeling . . . uninspired. As I began … [Read more...]
Organizing the Laundry Room
The initial title that popped into my head was "Re-organizing the Laundry Room." Then I thought, "Ummm, who am I kidding?" I've cleaned my laundry room before. I've even given another go at using my unbelievably-cool-so-why-can't-they-solve-all-of-my-problems stackable laundry baskets. But still, that was my before pic. This time, … [Read more...]
My Life of Irony
I've said it before. I live . . . a life . . . of irony. I should really expect these things to happen. Last Friday, I wrote a post about my friend whose home is always clean and who finds joy in her cleaning routine. I mentioned how she regularly moves her furniture when she vacuums. I might have just thought I was pretty funny … [Read more...]
A Belated Birthday Giveaway! – And My First VLOG!!!
There you go. My very first vlog. (That's a "video log," in case anyone thinks I've acquired a potty-mouth.) It's belated, because I'm a belated-kind-of-gal. My great ideas tend to come to me right when it's almost too late to implement them. But since this is my very own blog, I get to do what I want and host a birthday giveaway 5 days … [Read more...]
