Heather says: This week you’ll need to repurpose or buy two containers, the type of containers will depend on two things, your budget and space. Personally, I like the big 66 quart totes (don’t buy these, this is just so you can see what I am trying to describe). If you have the room they … Read more
Heather says: I haven’t done many product reviews in the last couple of years. I don’t like to commit to something if I’m unsure of how I’ll feel about it, I also don’t like the sense of obligation or the worry that someone will disagree with my opinion.

If you have older kids, you may wish to tell them to get started on their own rooms. If you have young children, you’ll want to lend a hand to ensure the mess … Read more
Heather says: This week, we’re heading right back into the bathroom. This time, instead of focusing on the vanity, we’ll be focusing on hair and body products. Are all of the open shampoos, conditioners, body washes, etc. in active use? If you don’t like the one that you’ve opened, and it’s just hanging out in the … Read more
Heather says Today we’re going to the bathroom. Okay, well, umm, I hope that is something that happens every day or that you and your gastroenterologist have had long, heartfelt conversations and are comfortable with things.
