Last night we went to open house for my toddler’s pre-school program. She starts next week which means life is about to change for all of us. It’s exciting and we are all looking forward to it.
This summer I tried to get some stuff in order like all of our clutter and to blog [...]
Today I did something I’ve never done before. I made a special place for my shoes and then organized them by placing them in plastic shoe boxes.
These shoe boxes are cheap and are great for small shoes. My husband’s shoes will just have to hang out on the shelf because I doubt we can find [...]
Anybody a FlyLady? I was years ago but have decided to give it a try again. All I really remember is to shine your sink each night before you go to bed. I always feel better when I have a clean sink and no dishes awaiting me first thing in the morning.

I find it hard to let go of stuff. I’m a hoarder and [...]

But I’m hoping that this will help us keep more of our hard-earned money. I’m an impulse buyer but only on items under $10. If an item is $15, [...]
After reading about Don Aslett on a post over at The Lazy Organizer, I was intrigued by it enough to check out who he was. He has written several books on cleaning and clutter.
Having a ton of stuff that I feel is weighing me down, I wanted to buy one of his books. So, I [...]
I live in a state of chaos. The older I get, the more it bothers me. So it’s getting to the point that if I don’t do something about the clutter, then I could lose all sanity.
