Hump Day Poll
Good day to you all on this last Wednesday of August! We have been in the declutter mindset but many of you know I get overwhelmed by where the heck to start because of our small, less than 1000 sq ft abode. I've gotten help from things like sliding baskets in cabinets, little things that help with space like mug stackers for mugs, and of course little pantries to be able to stock up on stable stuff when sales roll around. Those things help when you've got a home in mind but for me, it's how to mentally push myself to start because it all looks so untacklable. (New word alert.) One of the best pieces of advice I ever got on that front was from my friend who said to tackle one small section at a time. Like, say in your kitchen - do 1/4 of the total countertop area.

I had a great time in the old hometown but, yeah, it sure did go by fast this time. What's funny is we ended up being there later than usual too and it still all went flying by.

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed Saturday, and I hope the Mr's headache is completely gone today.
That stove is awesome! What a fun place to browse and buy. I had a really good meeting on Saturday, then finished up some paperwork, did a load of laundry, then to my ultimate delight binge-watched almost 5 hours of Who's Line is it Anyway and laughed myself silly, which felt really good. Sunday I had breakfast with a friend of mine, then we went grocery shopping, did more laundry, and romped around with the dogs. Not the best "mental" weekend, but getting those laughs in really made a difference.
