In other words, it’s a way to “time test” our physical possessions that we’re having a hard time decluttering. I used to call this a “quarantine” bin, but with the events of the past year and a half we decided to now call it a “time will tell” bin. So, this has been working awesome and I wouldn’t change a thing! (Also really like the wall mounted drying rack 👍) Button I don’t know if it’s because I’m short or what, but reaching in them to the unknown contents at the bottom kept me from ever doing all of the laundry. Plus, I realized that I hated digging to the bottom of hampers. Me: (realizing I never actually told him that) “I explained it in the video.” 🤦🏼♀️īut, other than that our new laundry system has been working SO well (Tom even called it “brilliant” when he was explaining it to his sister! 🤯) we both really like that each basket holds approximately one load so it’s easy to gauge how much needs to be done AND to get the kids involved. Tom: “Well that makes sense why didn’t you just tell me that?” this morning Tom said “I think we should label the bins in the laundry room so that we all know what goes in what.” Hmmmm.I was trying to make it so easy.so I said “couldn’t we just put whites in the white basket (second slide) and darks in the black basket?” On our YouTube video today we talk about this, along with emergency food storage and where we keep our fruit! (That question comes up surprisingly frequently 😉🍎🍌) I hope you had a good day! - Dawn Button over time you can switch out healthier options if you wish money saved because you’re more likely to cook at home instead of eating out easier for your family to help cook when you consistently make the same things
less mental energy required to make recipes you already know you can keep very consistent grocery inventory because you’re making the same meals over and over And may I give you permission that it’s ok if a few of those “recipes” go straight from the freezer to the air fryer with very little effort or thought? It’s probably because of All Recipes and Pinterest, but if you’re struggling to keep up with cooking at home, may I very kindly suggest that you scale back your meal rotation to a dozen or less recipes that you know well. IMHO, I think meal planning has gotten WAY too complicated. Don't rescue them from their boredom, rather offer suggestions (like going outside to play or unloading the dishwasher) and then go about your day! Button > Slowly back off screen time while allowing them to get bored. > Worried that you've "messed" your kids up and they're addicted to screens and not able to play on their own? Not true at all! A child's imagination can be rekindled at anytime! (Adult imaginations, too ) > This works for ALL ages, infant to 18!!! > The good news? You don't have anything to lose! You can do an experiment this summer: Box up 90% of your toys (leaving out open ended things like duplos, legos, blocks, magnatiles, a few cars & trucks and a couple of baby dolls > In contrast, kids feel stressed in cluttered spaces and often bounce from one toy to the next, never getting fully engaged
> From research, kids thrive in highly simplified spaces where their imagination can run wild
> And when my kids are deeply engrossed in play, that is when they seem most content, happy and peaceful > I'm not against toys, it's just that most don't actually encourage imaginative play ❓”Did you find that you kept more toys when your kids were little to help keep them occupied?”❓

Most often, we end up buying something we don’t need because we truly believe that it will solve a problem in our life or improve it in some way….but it rarely lives up to the hype.Īll of this to say: there’s nothing wrong with you if you’ve fallen victim to these schemes and campaigns! They’re professionals and they know how to catch us when we’re vulnerable or distracted!ġ) Let any item go that doesn’t actually make our life better or easierĢ) Know your weaknesses! For me it’s Instagram at night, I’m very likely to impulse buy something someone is promoting when it’s later in the day and my emotional energy and will power are gone! Button
They know our hopes, our insecurities and our desires (because we’re all more alike than not!) and they use that information to make empty promises. Marketers know that we just want our house to run more smoothly, we just want to cook dinner at home consistently or look just a little bit younger. 🤦🏼♀️ When I worked in marketing the goal was to find a pain point in peoples lives and then you would promise that the product that you’ve been hired to promote would solve that problem.
