For most of my adult life, I treated housekeeping as a project without realizing that was what I was doing. I would clean like a maniac, get it “perfect” and then feel completely shocked when I looked up three days later to see it was back to being a mess. When I started what I now call my deslobification process (out of total desperation), I … [Read more...]
Q: What’s the (Real) Reason to Declutter? A: So I Can KEEP Stuff!
This week (the week between Christmas Day and New Year's Day) is the biggest decluttering week of the entire year. Really. I know because internet searches double (sometimes even quadruple) that send people to my site. Decluttering energy rises as people put away their new stuff, but then it wanes when life happens. If you fear that … [Read more...]
Replacing (Not Just Adding to) My Dishes
I'm good on dishes. Meaning, we have what we need. And "what we need" is a whole lot less than what I used to think we needed.

Staying in My Lane
Another summer is over, and so is my blogging (podcasting, video-making) break. I'm starting my ninth year of this deslobification process, so I know how recovery from the craziness-of-routine-free-summer goes around here. I've shared different analogies over the years, and here's (at least) one more that has been rumbling around in my head for … [Read more...]
