Two Second Task: From “Pile of Stuff” to “Nativity Scene”

December 10, 2015 By Dana White 17 Comments

Two Second Task Pile of Stuff to Nativity Scene at ASlobComesClean.com

I have no excuses. I saw this duster sitting in the wrongest of wrong places, and hadn’t moved it.

Pile of Christmas Stuff at ASlobComesClean.com

Therefore, what should have been my favorite Nativity display was instead just part of “stuff on the coffee table.”

Two seconds later, after moving the duster? It was back to being a sweet and meaningful display.

Nativity Scene at ASlobComesClean.com

Hurry. Go spend two seconds doing something ridiculously obvious and come back and tell me about it!

What? Your nativity pieces all match? Huh. Interesting.

All I Wanted to Do Was Take a Funny Picture . . .

December 9, 2015 By Dana White 4 Comments

Really. I just wanted a laugh from Hubby. I was going to send him a sneakily taken picture of this cutie-patootie: I was going to say something like: This is why I don’t eat food that I left in the living room, even just for a second. The picture I couldn’t quite get was of […]

If I’m Hesitating Now . . . (What a Lifestyle of Decluttering Looks Like)

December 7, 2015 By Dana White 20 Comments

I sometimes casually mention that my family now lives a Lifestyle of Decluttering. Unfortunately, that doesn’t mean we live a Clutter Free Life. (I so wish.) Once upon a time, I automatically kept everything. Unless an item was shattered into a million tiny pieces that couldn’t possibly be put back together, my default reaction was […]

That Time My Daughter Talked Me Into Having a Garage Sale (Even though I knew better!!!)

December 1, 2015 By Dana White 4 Comments

It’s October December, and I’ve been meaning to write about the garage sale my 9yo daughter suckered me into having in August. I’m sure I could turn it into a big long story, but in the interest of already not-so-perfect-anymore timing, I’ll just share. She wanted to have a garage sale. She thinks they’re fun. […]

Small Victories! KNOWing I’ll Be Able to Find Something!

November 30, 2015 By Dana White 3 Comments

Our new voter registration cards came in the mail last week. I knew exactly where I should put them. That’s a big deal, y’all. The key? Where I should put them. I. Not someone. Definitely not the best place to keep voter registration cards. I answered my seriously-it’s-too-simple decluttering question: Where would I look for […]
