How Minimalism Helped my Mind
Overwhelmed. Distracted. Discontent with status quo. Disgusted with myself and my inability to get organized. All that is how I felt a few years ago in the depth of my anxiety and discouragement with where my life was. It just couldn’t stay that way. I couldn’t stay that way. I contemplated getting a professional organizer. …
Summer Break: Parents, Don’t let it Break You!
Parents, need ideas to keep kiddos occupied so you don’t go insane…without micromanaging their every move this summer? AND without them being glued to screens?

Recipe for DIY Corn-Free Baking Powder
If you have intolerances or food allergies, you know it can get tiring trying to read all the ingredients and look for “safe” consumable goods! When I started my hormone recovery journey, I went gluten-free and soy-free. That was a lot of effort, and I guess I was well-prepared for eliminating an even longer list. …
It’s the little things…
As a SAHM, sometimes I need a little motivation for monotonous work like folding laundry, doing dishes, or…peeling potatoes. Today, I had a happy little discovery that my new stackable wire storage bin, which I bought for holding potatoes or apples in, also doubles as a laptop holder. Woohoo! Now I can watch some youtube…
The No-Spend Month Conclusion
Well, my husband and I found out a lot about ourselves and our spending habits by being extra intentional with our spending.
