I never really realized just how much organization affected our debt freedom journey, [...]

Cleaning Stuck on Dough

May 2, 2011

I think it’s safe to say that I am the world’s messiest cook. {This is why I have yet to do a cooking/canning vlog, even though it’d sure make more sense sometimes!} Seriously, I am.  On top of that, I am also the world’s most impatient cook.  Those two together is a dangerous combination, since [...]

Rethinking Frugal

March 23, 2011

It’s easy to get caught up in deal shopping.  Bringing home a buggy full of cleaning supplies, makeup products, toiletries, and prepackaged food for pennies on the dollar is a thrill. As most of you know, in 2007 we found ourselves knee-deep in about $40,000 of debt.  I became a homemaker in 2004, and we [...]

Accepting Survival Mode

March 16, 2011

As women, we’re people pleasers.  As wives and mothers, we want to have it all together.  We have expectations for ourselves, and most of the time we can’t even attain it. Some time ago, I was able to give up on the thought that I could do it all, all the time.  That didn’t stop [...]

Streak Free Windows!

January 14, 2011

When we were designing our addition for Project Major Home Addition, we knew one thing for certain–we wanted lots of natural light.  Which in turn translates to lots of windows, and glass.  Considering that our old windows were almost impossible to clean {old single panes that didn’t allow for the outsides to be cleaned thouroughly}–I [...]

A Sparkling Sink

July 27, 2010

My house is absolute chaos.  Project Major Home Addition is still in full swing, which makes it quite hard to have any form of normalcy.  Windows and doors are being changed out–some are being done away with so there is plywood in their place (for now).  Walls are coming down, and my decor consists of insulation walls.

Cleaning Off Soap Scum

May 11, 2010

I really don’t mind cleaning my shower, as long as I do it weekly as my Home Management Binder tells me to do.  Just like with everything else, though, sometimes I get behind and the ever dreaded soap scum builds up.  Hours of elbow grease seemed to be no match to soap scum. But now, [...]
