Stopped by Fear (Of Avocados, Legos, Cutesy Baskets, Etc.)

February 13, 2013 By Dana White | 23 Comments

I used to suffer from a fear of avocados. I loved them, and would be happy with a family-sized serving of guacamole all to myself, but I wouldn't buy avocados in the store. See, I did once.  It was early in marriage, and I was proud of myself for putting Guacamole-from-Scratch on our menu for the night. But I didn't know what I was doing. … [Read more...]

How to Keep Up with Emailed Coupons

January 30, 2013 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I love my iPhone. I knew I would, I just didn't know how much.  It hasn't solved all my problems, but it sure does help with a lot of things! One of the things I love is that I don't have to print out (and then lose or forget) emailed coupons.  (Just to be clear, I'm not talking about printable grocery coupons.  I haven't used those in … [Read more...]

Organization Products (And Why They Scare Me)

September 24, 2012 By Dana White | 26 Comments

I have a phobia of organizing products. It was a late-onset phobia that developed in my mid-thirties.  Right around the same time that my delusions that I would become organized once I became a true grown-up started to reveal themselves as . . . delusions. Y'know.  Since I was in my mid-thirties and could no longer deny that I was a grown … [Read more...]

Utilizing Wall Storage in the Garage: Pegboards

September 18, 2012 By Dana White | 5 Comments

My Room-by-Room blogging friends and I are writing about garages and storage spaces today. When the time came that I could no longer put off writing this post (about one of my home's most irritating spaces), I donned my dust mask and headed into the garage. Imagine my delight when I realized that I could easily share the best, most useful, … [Read more...]

The Big Stuff is Done! (Gameroom Update)

March 1, 2012 By Dana White | 31 Comments

I started out behind on the February Organizing Challenge over at Org Junkie.  My first post was written on Feb 2nd, and the challenge started on the first. I feel like everything I did throughout the month for the challenge was a last-minute struggle and was always the minimal amount I could justify doing. And yet, here at the end . . . I'm … [Read more...]

The Desk is GONE(ish)!

February 29, 2012 By Dana White | 8 Comments

A few minutes ago, I headed over to read the rules for the final link-up in the 29 Day Organizing Challenge at Org Junkie. I was in a rather bad mood that I had to hurry and write a post about an unfinished project before this (crazy and busy) month ends in a few hours. I stopped reading after I saw #7.  "Your deadline for adding your entry … [Read more...]

I Did SOMEthing in the Gameroom, OK?

February 24, 2012 By Dana White | 19 Comments

Have I mentioned that I'm extra-busy this week? Well, I am. And yet . . . there's this 29 Day Organizing Challenge I said I was doing. And the whole I-have-a-blog-and-told-the-world-I-was-going-to-get-that-room-figured-out-this-month thing. I'm being purposefully delusional that I'll be able to get it finished next week. But alas, … [Read more...]

DIY Furniture Moving Sliders {Cheap Organizing Tricks}

February 20, 2012 By Dana White | 17 Comments

Sometimes . . . decluttering/organizing requires furniture-moving. Sometimes . . . the motivation to move furniture hits when big, strong (handsome and hairy) men aren't available to help. Everytime . . . motivation related to decluttering/organizing must not be stifled.  It's just too elusive. When I need to move furniture, I place … [Read more...]

Big Things Going On in the Gameroom

February 16, 2012 By Dana White | 20 Comments

Did you notice how I called it "The Gameroom" without any slashes, parentheses, or other explanation? I'm doing my best to start thinking of this as a single purpose room that can adjust to other purposes when needed. This is the second week of work on this room-overhaul, and I'm ready to see some real progress.  Last week's frustrating … [Read more...]
