My #1 Decluttering Tip
Decluttering Tips and Support Weekly Newsletter Vol. 5Dear Reader, Almost a decade into my minimalist journey, I am fairly ruthless about getting physical clutter out of my house. Case in point - yesterday was Valentine's Day. My boys came home with backpacks FULL of valentines, candy, and "treasures". I use the term treasure loosely. But what I see as knick-knacks and junk, they see as something precious. We took a moment to go through their treasure boxes and play my favorite game "Love Like Maybe No" - using the container concept to decide what stayed and what got trashed. In fact, the container concept is the #1 tactical decluttering tip that can simplify decluttering. Even a 6 year old can do it! It's no wonder that my episode about the container concept is one my top downloaded episodes ever! And speaking of episodes... We just reached 100 episodes and I celebrate on today's podcast with audio clips of the top 10 downloaded episodes of all time! Thanks so much for all your support on this journey!

Decluttering Tips and Support Dear Reader, As my two boys have grown, they have started taking my statements and requests as, shall we say, gateways for negotiation. If I tell them they can watch one show, they ask if they can watch two. If I tell them they can have three pieces of candy, they ask if they can have four. If I ask them to be home for dinner by 5:30, they ask if they can play until 6. It's constant. And exhausting. It's hard to hold boundaries when they just won't quit! If...
Decluttering Tips and Support Dear Reader, For those of you who are following along with our moving journey, we are breathing a bit easier this week with a signed contract on our house. We also have a bid in on a house in Pennsylvania and are anxiously waiting to hear back! A while back, I wrote a blog post about my ten non-negotiable habits that has done well for itself in the land of Google search. :) My habits have mostly stayed the same with a few updates I'd love to share with you....
Decluttering Tips and Support Dear Reader, We are officially moving from Virginia to Pennsylvania this summer, and I have NEVER been more grateful for my clutter-free home. In order to get house "listing-ready" we've had to clear surfaces, relocate furniture, and maximize the space to entice potential buyers. Watch out! Don't open that closet! Since we don't have a garage, any excess stuff has been moved to part of our basement. As I moved Lego sets, bean bag chairs, bookshelves, and end...
