It’s so easy to fall into the trap of thinking there has to be another, better way to keep the house under control. Unfortunately, there isn’t.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Purposefully changing the location of some things without ruining the “where would I look first” to better utilize the space in my home
  • Conquering the car clutter
