Cleaning It Out

July 23, 2020 by TUC Leave a Comment

Lately I have been tackling cluttered spaces in my house.  Some of them I use daily but don’t really ever look at (seriously I just don’t see the mess), and others like this drawer, I rarely engage.  I’m learning a lot about how I relate to my possessions. I’m not much of a spring cleaner. […]

About the author

I am a work-at-home mom to five kids. When I am not wiping butts, scrubbing dishes, doing laundry, cooking, overseeing homework, or (fill in a zillion blanks), I write here to decompress.
