Retired here, raised 3 kids and lots of critters. This tip may not be for everyone, but it continues to work for me. I keep a running list of what I want/need to accomplish, so if I have a few minutes I can get a small job done(and cross it off-so satisfying), and nothing falls through the cracks. Thank you for your tips, it adds to making our life simpler and helps our kids /grandkids too. Life changes and the tips do too.

Probably get me trolled these days, but Icall the 'junk' drawer the man drawer! It seems to have a lot of stuff that relates to traditionally male activities in it....

The key to a well run house seems to be developing good habits. Watching you has helped me see how to simplify and maintain a household. Thanks

The BIGGEST helpful tip I ever got was putting a hamper (or two) in every family member's room. I went from sorting 7 people's clothes to not sorting but directly doing a load and bringing the whole basket of clean clothes back to the room I got it from. Now as the kids are older, they all do their own laundry! Huge blessing.

@daisybuchanan5378

My kids started doing their own laundry at 9- by the time they left for college they hd learned it’s better to do smaller loads, it’s better to actually fold it and put it away, etc. 😂 It helped a lot for me to give them that responsibility. We use towels several times and dry them in a rack behind the bathroom door.

@faithgky

If you want to change your laundry life, keep your socks pinned together. Ours are safety-pinned together in the drawer and get repinned as soon as they come off our feet to get tossed in the laundry. No hunting for socks to match up when putting away fresh laundry, no lost singles, and no shade mismatches from dark colored socks,like navy, because a newer and older version of the same sock have been paired up during laundry folding. The socks are monogamously married from the day of purchase 😂.

Today one of your tips came in handy! I was at a thrift store and picked up a pretty basket. Normally I would have purchased it at such a good price. But I remember from one of your videos you ask “where would this go in our home?” I asked myself this question and then put it down. Thanks for the great strategy!!🎉🎉🎉

I would eat oatmeal everyday if my husband and elder daughter agreed! I love eating oats!

@Plushgamer619

My family does the same thing with the towels. It really does help!!!!!! I also know who left their towel on the floor and who put their towel away 😆😆😆😆 No more blaming or I don't know who's towel it is

@kathyol

These habits just become second nature. You are teaching the boys by example, and someday they will thank you. Love, MOM

@micheleohmer4117

I have been disciplining myself to finish a task like cleaning up after dinner, before watching TV, KZfaq or being on social media. I feel accomplished and I can enjoy something without the guilt. I know those things had become a big distraction from doing what should be done, first!

@gwenj5419

I simplified when I started working full time by having each family member do their own laundry. My kids were in highschool at the time but I think they could have done this even younger.

You have been a kind presence for years now. Thank you for making such a wonderful difference in my life. Your content does matter. 🙂

I naturally gravitate toward your clean and declutter regularly advice as well as cleaning the kitchen while cooking. I always keep a donation box so I can drop off no longer wanted items at the thrift shop when I'm shopping there. I keep a shopping list in my phone. It's organized by store. When I need or want to purchase something, I add it to the list immediately when I think of it. If I'm shopping for curtains or something to fit a specific space, I include the measurements on my list. I keep a tape measure in my purse because I often shop 2nd hand and I can make sure the item fits when I'm considering a purchase. If the item is something I might find a several stores, it goes on the shopping list under each of the stores. My grocery list is organized based on the store layout, meaning the produce section is the first section I encounter when I enter the store, so produce items go at the top of my list. Next is bulk, then general merchandise, etc.

Your home is so pretty. Having less definitely leads to being able to be organized much more easily. When we moved abroad, we got rid of a lot of "stuff." Shedding the excess has made our lives so enjoyable. Yes, we kept what was most precious, but I never ever want to get back to the excess we had before. It made it hard to stay organized. Thank you for this video. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos. :)
