Declutterathon: 40 Bags in 40 days Update {Master Bath & Office}
My 40 Bags in 40 Days challenge is going okay. I only have about 10 bags at this point so I'm a little behind where I wanted to be, but progress is being made so I'm choosing to be happy about that. At least I'm ahead of last year's record. I wanted a little more motivation and a more visual representation of my progress so I made a new printable, of course. The ideal way to achieve those results probably would've been to fill up another bag, but I'm a master of procrastination. ...Continue Reading

As I said in my first Declutterathon post, if I try to focus on the entire house all at once I'll get nothing done so instead I've broken my house down into zones. ...Continue Reading
Declutterathon: How to Declutter your life in only 40 Days
Earlier this year I shared that my goals for 2014 are to live a more balanced and organized life. In this house, with 4 kids and 2 tired adults, that's no small feat. It seems every time I turn around there's another pile of dirty dishes to wash, another spill to soak up, and toys multiplying like rabbits. Seriously, where do all these toys come from? I recently had the epiphany that Clutter is like a Koi Fish, and I now know what I need to do. I need to simplify. The only way I'm going to be ...Continue Reading
