Podcast 006 – Don’t Get Organized! Just Declutter

October 4, 2013 By Dana White 16 Comments

Podcasts from ASlobComesClean.com

Podcast #6 is ready!

podcast-6-dont-get-organized-just-declutter-at-aslobcomesclean.com

It just hit me that this means I’ve been podcasting for six weeks now! (Remember, I have Time Passage Awareness Disorder.)

In this week’s podcast, I share the second reason why I am glad that I called myself a slob. I also tell about my shock when I learned that I was NOT the only woman out there who struggled with housekeeping like I did.

For this week’s decluttering inspiration, I talk about how it is okay (even helpful) to let yourself JUST declutter instead of organizing. This is a concept that took a long time for me to understand, but it has helped me so much.

You can listen to this podcast here or in iTunes.

Homework Time Decluttering

October 2, 2013 By Dana White 14 Comments

Last week, while I still had delusions about writing a Normal Day post, I took this picture: This is my daughter, doing her homework, with one of my most consistent clutter collecting spots in the background. Right. I’ve shown after pictures of this exact spot in previous posts. I even have a webisode of me […]

Two Second Task – Fixing That Curtain

October 1, 2013 By Dana White 11 Comments

Another two-second task for you. That (stupid) curtain had been whompy-jawed for . . . ummm . . . a while. At least all summer. And I hadn’t fixed it. Even when we had friends over for dinner. Even when it bugged me like crazy. I only fixed it when I knew someone was coming […]

October 1, 2013 By Dana White 6 Comments

Podcast #5 is a little late, but is now up! In this podcast, I share Part 5 of my Slob Story, which includes the decision to call this blog A Slob Comes Clean, even though I had never called myself a slob before that. I also tell about my not-normal week last week. Other things […]

Accountability That Actually Counts

September 30, 2013 By Dana White 10 Comments

People like to talk about accountability. There are accountability groups, accountability systems, accountability partners and such. I set up this blog as a way to stay focused and hold myself accountable. In so many ways, that has worked.  But truthfully, it’s not the best kind of accountability. Part of what I’ve committed to do here […]

Google + Hangout – Habit Four “The Daily Pickup”

September 30, 2013 By Dana White 7 Comments

I’m just now adding last week’s hangout from Google +. (So sorry! This video is no longer available.) Last week was a crazy week . . . Anyway, I enjoyed the hangout, and learned a lot about the technical side of things. As one of you predicted after my technical difficulties in the first hangout, […]

Normal Days Don’t Happen Often (or Soup Isn’t Picnic Food)

September 27, 2013 By Dana White 8 Comments

  It was suggested that I write a “normal day” type post. I totally planned to do that, but then this week happened. Not a normal day to be found. Which is pretty much normal for us.  I had totally planned to share cute and funny pictures. Cute: My daughter making meatballs while I browned […]

Dealing With Clutter Like Normal Friend Would

September 25, 2013 By Dana White 13 Comments

I haven’t mentioned Normal Friend in a while. But I did channel her last Saturday. I was decluttering a big pile of . . . ummm . . . stuff in the garage. There will be a post coming about that soon, but basically I was cleaning up scattered (and stacked and thrown) summer stuff […]

A Huge Moment for this Slob Mama

September 24, 2013 By Dana White 14 Comments

I have two boys who are ten and eleven. They totally crack me up. Lately, they’ve been choreographing detailed “wrestling” matches and performing them for the rest of the family. Sunday, as they put on their scheduled pay-per-view (a penny per person) match during half-time of the Cowboys game, I used my fancy new camera […]
