  • Your Jump-Start to Minimalism, and Simple Parenting Too!

    September 18, 2020 /

    PLUS, a free printable that breaks down the path we took to minimize our home, and introduce a simpler life to our family! Since a recent post in a minimalist mama’s group got a lot of attention, I’ve had a few DM’s asking where to get started. I thought this was a great opportunity to share the steps I’ve taken, bloggers I’ve followed, books I’ve read and podcasts I’ve enjoyed while creating a more minimalistic home life for my family. The links in the post are a part of the Amazon Affiliates Program. This means I get a small percentage back from Amazon from any potential purchase. This is what…

    I’m lazy. There. I said it. And I think because I’m lazy, I by default find the most efficient ways to accomplish my to do’s. Because the less hard I have to work at it, the more likely I am to accomplish it. Planners are all the rage lately, and spending $50+ on a planner each year, not including accessories, has quickly become the trend. The time invested in to bullet journals and the like is so cool if that’s your thing. But this lazy, frugal mama just doesn’t have the time to dedicate to that much planner prep. Nor do I want to invest that type of money in…

Why share this? Because I held on to my coffee dep Why share this? Because I held on to my coffee dependency every day because I was scared of quitting. I had heard some horror stories of how bad quitting it was. And I was wimping out. 
While working with my provider, recent lab results showed how severely my body was stuck in fight or flight mode, and I knew I had to make changes for myself. Coffee was one of the first (and actually easiest) habits I needed to address. 
And while some personalities do well with tapering out a habit, others do not. Hi, I’m the others! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I knew if I didn’t quit cold turkey I probably wouldn’t be successful. 
So I swapped my coffee with other warm mugs like herbal teas and hot lemon water, and I just went for it. 
The fatigue on days one and two were present, not going to lie! But they definitely weren’t as bad as I had anticipated. The headache, now that was pretty miserable. However, overall it only really lasted about a day and a half. And looking back, was NOTHING to be scared of! 
Curious about ditching caffeine? Have you done it before? I’d love to hear your thoughts or questions! 
PS… I don’t plan to stay cold turkey forever. I actually had a small cup on day 6 and I was surprised how INSTANTLY I felt the caffeine induced anxiety kick in. I actually haven’t had a drop of caffeine since, because in this moment it just doesn’t feel worth it. 🤎

Do you try before you buy?! The amount of money Do you try before you buy?! 
The amount of money we save by shopping our home before heading out to buy something we ‘need’ … I wish I had kept a running total all these years! Received this cute little buddy as a gift, but had no small planters on hand. Welp… that’s nothing a little creative thinking, a quick shop your home moment, a few coffee mugs and some bristle blocks can’t fix! Just don’t tell my kids about the blocks part. 😂😂 
What’s one think you’ve shopped your home for recently?
