Three Reasons I KonMari

I have written a few posts about the Kon-Mari method so I’m no stranger to this trend. I have completed my first major purge and have been using her method to keep down the clutter. Though, I must admit there are still several areas that could use another go-around. (I’m looking at you hobby supplies).

As with anything in life, what works for some doesn’t always work for others. Marie’s…

Why Start Big When You Can Start Small!

While I am currently working on re-building my emergency savings (life happened, that is why we have that fund). I was itching to start my Milestone Two: Short Term Savings Goal.
