Giving What I’ve Been Given

March 4, 2015 By Dana White | 18 Comments

Clutter guilt is a real thing, y’all. I did a whole video series (or two) about it. When someone (me) stresses over the possible uses, possible future need, and possible life-threatening consequences of NOT keeping something, it’s only natural to also stress over the nobleness or lack of nobleness of various decluttering methods. Irrational … [Read more...]

I Shall Never Wash This Item Again

March 3, 2015 By Dana White | 31 Comments

Please read that title pronouncing "again" as "aGANE." It sounds better that way. I have no idea how many times I've washed the item in the picture above. I'm pretty sure, though, that I've washed it more times than I've worn it. It's the belt for a cute and sporty pajama set that Hubby and the kids bought me for Christmas at least 7 years … [Read more...]

Perfectly Good Candy

March 2, 2015 By Dana White | 5 Comments

I think Hubby brought these home. It was sweet, really. Someone had them at work and he thought he’d be nice. Except our kids don’t really like them. I know (from experience) that they’ll sit and sit and sit and end up at the bottom of the snack basket, waiting for an official Decluttering Project. Unless something even worse … [Read more...]

Using My Head Exploding Rule to Declutter

February 26, 2015 By Dana White | 45 Comments

I was listening to my own podcast (a rare thing, since I don't edit them) about the Head Explosion Rule as I cleaned up the kitchen this morning. So when I ran across that glass lid-thingy in the picture, and began to feel a physical, head-exploding sensation come over me, I knew just what to do. I threw it in the trash. It's the lid to a … [Read more...]

Priorities – And Sledding without Snow

February 25, 2015 By Dana White | 12 Comments

It's 2:20 on Wednesday afternoon, and other than a quick, not-a-real-post on Monday, I haven't blogged this week. We had "snow" days on Monday and Tuesday, which were really Ice Days. The roads were bad, so school was canceled, but we managed to get out with friends to have a BLAST "sledding" in our laundry baskets. Today, it actually snowed, … [Read more...]

Reality Check 2/23

February 23, 2015 By Dana White | 3 Comments

Last week was crazy. School fundraisers and dentist appointments that involved hours in the chair to have a 30+ year old filling ground down so I could be fitted for a crown (and that I'd completely forgotten was an appointment that would last most of the day) and title transferring for the inlaws new car and such meant I didn't keep up with a … [Read more...]

If I Don’t Know What to Do With It . . .

February 19, 2015 By Dana White | 8 Comments

Look at this cute, odd velvet bow-type-thingy. My daughter and I worked in her room on Monday while the kids were out of school for President’s Day. When I ran across the bow, I knew I recognized it. I just couldn’t quite place it. She knew. Grammy gave her a jean jacket for Christmas that included lots of interesting funkiness. I think it … [Read more...]

Using the Container Concept When Decluttering with Kids

February 18, 2015 By Dana White | 11 Comments

I recently received this email from Tara McDonough and had to share! I just wanted to share an anecdote of what happened yesterday in my deslobification process. Our family of 4 (+ a 100 lb dog) is moving in the next couple of weeks. We'll be losing close to 1,000 sq ft of "junk space"! Ahhh! We each seem to have our "problem spots." I … [Read more...]

A Clean Kitchen in One Minute and 3.58 Seconds

February 17, 2015 By Dana White | 17 Comments

I was doing the right thing. Even though I'd messed up and NOT started the dishwasher the night before, I was starting it that morning. Yay for getting back on track. And the kitchen really looked nice. Clean counters. Mostly clean sink. Except for that one measly cookie sheet that wouldn't fit into the dishwasher for this load. I mean, … [Read more...]
