So THAT’s How My New Chairs Look

living-room-new-chairs-at-aslobcomesclean-com

I’ve been missing for a while. I had big plans to write ahead and have posts scheduled to go up while I took Spring Break off to be with my family. And then, the Monday before Spring Break was a completely unexpected Ice Day.

With everyone home, I was determined to spend time with them instead of working ahead on this blog-thing I do. I had big plans for Tuesday morning, but had completely forgotten that I had a rather major (three hour) dentist appointment scheduled. They called as I got home from the gym. I went sweaty. And stinky. (Though I did brush my teeth . . . )

Add this, that, and the other, plus a little yada yada yada, and I left town last week with two little ol’ posts scheduled.

And as it seems to go, my house reflected this craziness-of-life.

Finally Seeing My Living Room Put Together after two Weeks at ASlobComesClean.com

Remember those new chairs? The ones I (gleefully) didn’t have to set up and arrange when we canceled our church’s home group meeting due to that unexpected ice storm? Well . . . the next week was another missed group meeting because of Spring Break.

I guess it’s just wasn’t in me to spiff things up without an impending doorbell.

Boxes STILL in the Living Room at ASlobComesClean.com

And when there are two humongous boxes, it’s hard to care about all the other stuff that gets strewn across the floor and more.

So after a full two weeks, I finally got to see my living room company ready and decided that I do love our new setup.

I like to think that if the past two weeks had been a little less-crazy, I’d have fixed things up just because.

But I like to think a lot of things.

Just for reference, here’s a picture of the living room all put together with the old loveseat:

Super Simple Banana (and Whatever) Smoothies

March 11, 2014 By Dana White 10 Comments

445shares 378 0 67 This is my newest obsession. Banana smoothies. Frozen bananas, blended, taste basically like ice cream. But they’re bananas. Which means I feel like I’m eating ice cream for breakfast. Which makes me happy. This has made me go a little crazy on the banana-buying lately, hoping they’ll start looking like this […]

Creating Space In My Home by Decluttering

March 9, 2014 By Dana White 18 Comments

782shares 654 0 128  I’m on a Space Creation Kick lately. I might (or might not) have a few dumping areas. Fine. I do. One is (once again) the master bedroom, and one is “hidden” behind a screen in the gameroom. These spaces get on my nerves, but at least a part of the master […]

How to Reduce Paper Clutter

March 6, 2014 By Dana White 72 Comments

4.6Kshares 3.9K 0 694 Oh, how I don’t want to write this post. I’m only writing it because it has been specifically requested many many times. Paper is a slob’s natural enemy. And I most definitely don’t have paper “under control.” This makes me feel unqualified to speak on the subject. But . . . […]

Three Separate Bursts of Bread-Baking Energy

March 5, 2014 By Dana White 20 Comments

97shares 89 0 8 Monday was an Ice Day for us. On Sunday afternoon, as ice began to pour down from the sky, I had a thought. The thought? “If tomorrow is an Ice Day, I shall bake bread.” I’m not sure what ice and bread have to do with one another, but it’s what […]

Pretty Sure This Is NOT What They Mean . . .

March 4, 2014 By Dana White 26 Comments

252shares 247 0 5I’ve heard people say you shouldn’t stress so much about people coming into your home. You shouldn’t feel the need to change things. You should let people see how you really live. But I’m pretty sure this is NOT what they mean:     This isn’t actually how we “live” if you […]
