Merry Christmas everyone! Today we celebrate Christmas around the world! As I watched National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation last night, I was reminded how I used to drive my Grandma Lashlee and my mom around town looking at Christmas lights.

Even though this movie came […]

I asked myself: “Does this cluttered mess spark joy?” My answer was a resounding “NO!” So I pulled everything from my drawers and used the KonMari Method to fold and organize my clothes. There are no “before” photos, but here are the “after” photos of three of my dresser drawers.
