A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, tried, and remembered. 1. We invented and made our own board game. This was all Super Rockstar’s idea and it was a great one. Morgan and Grayson have really been into Ghostbusters lately–so we came up with a game based on the movies. It’s really fun and it…
School Paperwork
The first place I am beginning my whole de-cluttering campaign (you can read about my awakening here) is with paperwork. One of the biggest sources of the paperwork backup in our home is school papers the boys bring home on a weekly basis. The sheer volume can be overwhelming– there’s worksheets, graded tests, permission slips,…
Chocolate Chip Cookies that never disappoint
I live in Colorado and absolutely LOVE the beauty of our mountains and forests. I have learned to survive on much less oxygen due to our high altitude, but the same cannot be said of many of my baking creations. I learned long ago that tweaking recipes is always necessary, so when I finally perfected…

New Year, New Approach
Each new year I begin the same way. I sit in my favorite comfy chair with a clean sheet of paper and a good sturdy ink pen and write Goals for(whatever the current new year)at the top of the page. I then proceed to make a list of things I hope to accomplish in the…

A Year in Review
Happy New Year! I’m so glad we all made it safely into 2019 and I’m really looking forward to what this year will bring. But before I’m ready to launch forward into the new, I like to take a peek back. So often I only remember the difficulties (and there were many). It helps to…
