Decluttering (The Guest Room Closets)
I don’t think I’ve mentioned it on here yet, but about two weeks from now my brother is making the 1,200 mile drive from his current home in Minneapolis to our home in Colorado, and he is moving in with us for a few months! Tommy is 9 years younger than me so he was only […]
Who Needs It? Challenge #4: Return to Sender
Okay, my friend Sarah is no longer blogging so the “Who Needs It” decluttering challenge series isn’t happening anymore (though you can see all of my posts here), but I had started this challenge back in March and I figured I could at least finish my blog post about what I’ve done since it’s been sitting […]
Decluttering (The Master Bedroom Closets): Stage 1
Why did getting rid of different sections of my closet feel like little deaths to me? Dreams of having more children, aspirations of actually using my degree & traveling more, the nostalgia of being young and carefree… it honestly felt like I was shutting the door on those parts of me by letting go of […]
Who Needs It? Challenge #3: Start Small
I’m currently on maternity leave with a 6 week old and a 2 year old, so it can be extremely difficult to find time to just “Be with myself.” Because of this, I was sort of stumped about what to do for this month’s challenge, and then I realized that I already have been doing something […]

Decluttering (the Bathrooms)

Who Needs It? Challenge #2: Get Real
Challenge #2: Get Real The 2nd part of SRB’s de-cluttering challenge is to “Get Real” and think about the emotional aspect of the clutter in our lives. While thinking about what I wanted to write in this post, I realized that I definitely have different emotions regarding different areas of my life. I just posted […]
Decluttering (The Master Bedroom)
Last month I joined up with a project SRB started called “who needs it?” It will be a year long effort at decluttering the stuff in our lives – be it physical or emotional clutter. It’s never too late to join in! At any rate, last year while I was pregnant I had already started […]
Who needs it? Challenge #1: Fess Up
Okay, I’m going to take the plunge and jump into SRB’s new blog challenge for 2014. It’s all about the clutter in our lives and how to better manage it all, and this is definitely a topic I could use some help with. Without further ado, here is my contribution to her first challenge! Who […]
