Can I just say that after the high of getting my insanely-cluttered-and-neglected garage organized, the low of (unsuccessfully) looking for my daughter's dance bag in her how-is-it-a-disaster-again room yesterday morning was not a fun contrast? It's definitely been one of those recovering-slob mood swing days that I could totally do … [Read more...]
Decluttering
Decluttering is the foundation to transforming your home. But don't be afraid! We can start small.
My Garage is Now . . . Organized! (With "After" Pictures!)
Here it is. My final garage post. Final . . . because it's done! Monday, I shared about my attempts to "at least do something." Tuesday, I recounted the day when I really got going on this monstrous project. Yesterday, I actually got excited as I wrote about the momentum I was gaining. The final day, Tuesday, began with me doing my … [Read more...]
Day Two of My Big Garage Organization Project
Saturday morning I was ready to get to work. I was excited about Friday's progress, and I felt that this was going to be the day when I would see real change. I know, it almost sounds like I'm an Organizational Blogger, right? After spending 30 minutes looking for the dust mask I wore the day before (which I still haven't found), I decided … [Read more...]
Organizing My Garage/Storage Space – Day One
Did you see "Day One" in the title? Meaning . . . this was a two-full-days-plus-part-of-a-third project? I despise multi-day organizational projects. Just the thought wears me out and makes me feel that someone like me could never possibly finish. Since I began this deslobification process, I've mostly done one and two hour … [Read more...]
Getting Started on Organizing My Garage/Storage Space
Why the garage? That is the question I asked myself many, many . . . many times between the moment when I blurted out that I would tackle the garage for this Spring Spruce Up party, and the time when I actually started working on it. If you're a regular reader, you know that decluttering is something I do all the time. Not because I'm a … [Read more...]
Crazy Day with a Big Accomplishment Worked In
I've been off on a field trip for the day, gone from early morning until the afternoon. My kitchen hasn't been cleaned, my floors are unswept and the TV is covered in dust. But . . . I'm proud of myself. Why? In the few minutes I had between picking up the un-field-tripping 4yo from her friend's house and heading to the school to get … [Read more...]
Spring Cleaning/Organizing/De-Disasterizing the Playroom
That's our playroom. It's a room I ignore, often accidentally . . . but mostly on purpose. Besides the fact that I'm sure every playroom in existence tends to get out of control, mine is actually a closed-in porch. It isn't under heat or air, and we leave the window open quite a bit so our dog can get in out of the wind/rain/cold/whatever. … [Read more...]
Cleaning Out the Fridge
My fridge was a mess. I hadn't cleaned it out in . . . well . . . I honestly have no idea. Wondering why the top shelf is stuffed full, but the bottom shelf is almost empty? (Except for a potholder, which evidently requires refrigeration?) Well, in all of my meat-cooking of this past week, we had some leakage, and rather than clean it up … [Read more...]
February Decluttering Update – Come Join In!
It's March, which means that it's time for another monthly decluttering update. A time to look back over my posts labeled "decluttering" and realize just how much I've accomplished in February. A time to enjoy the wonders of slob-blogging and see, in undeniable photographic evidence, that my Donate Spot has the same stuff in it that was there … [Read more...]
