I had big plans to write a post about how I was going to devote this week to projects. I was going to show this picture: Then I was going to explain how this is the result of all my corners-and-hideaways decluttering efforts of the past two weeks. I was going to wax eloquent about how so much of what I pulled out of these last remaining … [Read more...]
Another Chance to Get a Soap.com Groupon
Sorry! This offer has expired. Last week, I posted about a Groupon deal for Soap.com. If you didn't do it last week, you have another chance! Groupon is a growing phenomenon where businesses offer fabulous deals with the stipulation that a certain number of people have to purchase it. Pretty much a win-win for the customer and the business. … [Read more...]
Just So There’s No Misunderstanding . . . I Do NOT Like Being a Slob
Ugh.This slob-problem gets me so unbelievably frustrated sometimes.Here on the blog, I've decided to face the problem head-on. Calling myself a slob, admitting when lame excuses are . . . . well . . . lame, being totally honest with myself about how my brain does and doesn't function.

Forced to Change my Grocery Shopping Style
This post has been rolling around in my head for almost two months. Today, Money Saving Mom is sharing her financial goals and is hosting a linky, so I decided now was as good a time as any to write it. Her goals are lofty, mine really aren't.

Here I've been going along, proud of myself for mopping on Thursdays, being able to have people over every single Sunday night, not letting the dishes get out of control, and being able to name with certainty the date when I last cleaned the … [Read more...]
Sometimes Survival Techniques Just Don’t Cut It
I've shared that this week is dedicated to getting the house to the point where the bug-man can come in and spray. While I would love to get the house to the point of perfection so that there is no embarrassment as he enters any-old-room, I'm a slob, and so that just isn't something I can achieve in less than a week. So I'm depending on survival … [Read more...]
A Tip for Remembering to Take Medication
Last spring, one of my children was diagnosed with a condition that requires medication three times daily. It was a shock to us, partially because of the life change that comes with dealing with a chronic condition, but partly because I'm not exactly the best at remembering medication. Any prescription that's supposed to take 10 days to complete … [Read more...]
Daily Checklist – Again with the Priorities
So thankful for my daily checklist on days like today. It helps me keep my priorities in line. I'm starting to freak out a little over how much I need to do before the bug man comes on Monday, and pre-daily-checklist, I would have let that be an excuse to ignore the kitchen, bathrooms, whatever. Whenever I get delusional that I've … [Read more...]
