Watching Clutter Happen

June 19, 2010 By Dana White | 3 Comments

My house looks like summer. Not in the fresh-flowers-on-the-dining-table way, but in the flip-flops-everywhere-and-random-junk-piling-up-from-lack-of-routine way.And I'm watching it happen.Sometimes I'm not aware of the clutter happening, but right now I feel very aware. I may not have purposely put it there, but I have purposely left it there. I … [Read more...]

A Clutter-Free Purse . . . What a Nice Thought

May 27, 2010 By Dana White | 17 Comments

I love a clutter-free purse. Not that I have one. Sometimes, if my house looks nice for a fleeting moment, I think, "What will I blog about if I really do get my home under control someday?" But then, my mind starts filling with the many other areas where clutter reigns. Like my purse. For the past three weeks or so, my purse … [Read more...]

Laundry Day’s Fatal Flaw

April 29, 2010 By Dana White | 11 Comments

So I'm loving laundry day. Mostly the lack of the nagging I-should-be-doing-laundry-right-now feeling. It's an almost perfect plan. Focus for one day. Forget it - sans guilt - for the other six. I've even proven that I can do it on days when we have a field trip to the zoo. Nothing's stopping me now, right? Right? Nothing except … [Read more...]

Curing My Funk

April 28, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

Me and my moods. I call this a funk. It's not like I'm down or anything, I just don't feel like doing anything. I'm tired, run-down, listless . . . maybe I need some Vitametavegamin? It isn't that anything is wrong. It's a normal crazy Wednesday. I discovered while sitting in my discussion group at my Bible Study that I had finished last … [Read more...]

Bursting my Scrubbing Bubble

March 5, 2010 By Dana White | 3 Comments

I have such a long way to go in this journey. My house is looking tons better overall, but I am still so quick to ditch the daily habits that make the difference between continuing the improvement and sliding back down into chaos. The past three days have been crazy. A very painful ear infection in my 3yo, Bible Study, Mom's group meeting, … [Read more...]

Normal People Scare Me

February 1, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

I love blogging. I'm generally an open person. But I don't tell any "normal people" about my blog. Other than my husband, my mother, and two friends who have known me and loved me unconditionally since Jr. High, no one in my real-life world knows. But sometimes it's hard to not mention. If it's been a busy week of posting and linking up to … [Read more...]

I’m not Disabled

January 13, 2010 By Dana White | 4 Comments

My thumb hurts. Really bad. With the dry weather, my skin is cracking and this place on my thumb is split open, bleeding, and painful. But I'm not disabled. You just don't think about how much you use your thumb. I feel like I'm hitting it on everything. Trying to take notes at Bible study this morning, I had to hold my pen funny to be able to … [Read more...]

Daily Checklist – 1st Day of My New Chart

January 11, 2010 By Dana White | 6 Comments

Today was the first day to use my new chart. For today, it was actually fun and very satisfying to make little blue Xs down the list. It definitely kept me on track and kept me from forgetting anything. We'll see how long it takes before I lose the list, can't find a pen, or just plain start ignoring it. Today I: Made bed. Emptied … [Read more...]

Working on the Boys’ Scary Room

November 13, 2009 By Dana White | 10 Comments

REALLY scary. This is not a post about some big success. I didn't even take a before picture. I might take a half-way through picture and say it was before. That's how bad it is. I feel so bad about the example I've been to my children. Why in the world should they keep their room nice if mine looks the way it does? After visiting his … [Read more...]
