Welcome back! Maybe that's more for me than for you. Feels like forever since my last personal post! And, technically, this isn't a written post, either! It's a VIDEO! But not just any video. A video outlining how to be a better homemaker!
Exciting!!
My very first video post. Which means I'm terribly nervous!
I may have mentioned a few times (here, here, here, here, here, here) that I'm currently pregnant with our second little angel. If you signed up for my free 5 day email course, you'll also know that my go-to nesting habit is to purge. And it's seriously awesome.
Haven't had the opportunity to sign up for the course yet? I'll make it easy for ya.
So, if you haven't already guessed it, the way I made well over $600 from my pregnancy was by initiating a purge (or 3) and selling a lot of the excess! I don't have an accurate total because it was money gathered over time (and I wasn't yet in the blogging mindset), but I will outline what avenues we took to selling our things.
Here we are at week 2 of my September Christmas series. In case you missed it, last week I posted a quick roundup of some adorable Christmas Treats. Today we're going to tackle the dreaded Christmas Mess.
Arguably the busiest time of year for a lot of families, it seems like the Christmas season has become synonymous with clutter, mess, and havoc. Because we're running here, there and everywhere, we have little time and energy to clean up around us. Not to mention all the new items coming into our homes.
If this isn't you and your family, please, tell us your secrets! The rest of us struggle year after year with energy-zapping Christmas mess. I'm going to help you by outlining a few strategies to implement in attempt to keep the clutter and mess to a minimum.
Call me crazy, but I'm already starting my early Christmas shopping for this year! With our second baby expected at the beginning of October, I'm trying to get ahead on all things fall and winter. This includes Halloween costumes, garden and yard work, meal planning and, of course, Christmas preparations!
Yes, I'll admit that every year I have great intentions of shopping throughout the year to lighten the expense at Christmas.
This has previously backfired on me.
I'll forget what I've bought, or found “better” gifts later on. Sending our budget into a tailspin.
I've developed a few tips to help [myself] with the early Christmas shopping. I'll also list some reasons why you should start! Even if you're not expecting a fall or winter baby.
