This week our mission was paper clutter. Oh, man, do I have my fair share of that! There’s the kitchen table, which attracts mail and school papers. There’s my desk, which has been host to a growing pile of who-knows-what for something like three years. There’s a corner of my kitchen that I have set […]

I’ve decided to play along with Tsh at Simple Mom, and join Project: Simplify. I’ve had decluttering on my to-do list for some time, but there’s always some reason not to do it, and always an easy way to talk myself out of it. Tsh provided just the push I needed – she’s made it […]
Read More: Project: Simplify week oneSo I had this great idea to start a “Work-in-Progress Weekends” feature, which would feature glimpses into the projects I was currently working on, and would invite you to share in kind. But before I knew it, it was already Monday and I hadn’t made a fancy little blog button to represent the series. And […]

I promise my messy kitchen didn’t swallow me up. I spent enough time in there on Saturday to get half the job done and to help Flufy film part two of his apple pie series: the crust. I still have the table to do, and there’s a section of countertop on the left that you […]
Read More: Not swallowed up
Good morning! After a week of being out-of-sorts for a variety of reasons, I am suddenly overcome with the desire to do something about this: And if I have any energy left after that is done, there is still half a bag of apple “seconds” I could have my way with… I’ve got three pie […]
Read More: Urges of the domestic kindAidan enjoyed reading all of your comments on his post last night. He was all set to reply to them, but it was late and I was all set for him to go the heck to bed already and sent him upstairs before he could have his say. Oops. Mean Mom Alert. 😉 I enjoyed […]
Read More: Seeking balance (and crafty time)The piles of clothes around my bedroom got to be too much finally. There were baskets and stacks of clean clothes, an overflowing basket of dirty clothes, and a whole lot of over-stuffed bags of clothes to be given away. Everything was starting to bleed together, and well, I couldn’t walk over to my side […]
Read More: Scaling Mount LaundryOh, look! Jars of jam, cooling on a shelf next to the window. That’s quaint. When I see images like this, my mind fills in the missing details – a row of jars on a vast, otherwise-empty shelf in a brightly-lit, well-organized room… Let’s zoom out a little bit. Ah, yes, that’s what I’m talking […]

I finally came up with a plan of attack for the basement. You may recall we were flooded last weekend. It was only an inch or so of water, but it was across the entire floor, and anything that had been sitting on the floor was damaged. Thankfully that wasn’t too much stuff, but Neil […]

Every now and then I post about the various tools I like to use to get organized. Then a few weeks go by, and I am usually posting about what a mess my house is. The truth is, the best organizational tools in the world won’t help you unless you use them. Sticking with the […]
