I love spending hours cleaning my house. Said nobody, EVER. Taking care of a home when you have ADHD, children, pets, and a husband is no easy feat. 3 p.m. Friday Afternoon The Hubs: “Ugh, how did you get it so far up in there?” Me: “I don’t know, it happened so...
Why is the kitchen the area of the house that seems to get the most cluttered? I kept asking myself this question a few weeks ago. For many families, the kitchen is the gathering place. It’s where we eat, talk, and even argue. Kitchens also have lots of hiding spaces...
Cleaning is for the birds! I mean, we all have to do it, but I don't know anyone who wants to spend hours every day cleaning. Well, maybe my Grandmother. She genuinely enjoys it. I prefer to clean in short bursts, focusing on one domain each day. Check out the post...

In May of this year I will have been blogging for two years. At first I wanted just to connect with other women and mothers living with ADHD. Over time I have decided that I like our little community so much I want to grow it into a full-time gig. The thing is, I have...
You all know I love to stock a pantry. Shopping from my own pantry makes me very happy. I feel so in control and responsible. Which is funny because I almost never feel responsible. Lately though I have been having some issues with my food storage. Namely, I have too...
With my Meal Planning clients I always say to start by going through your pantry. I will do a post about my own pantry in the near future. But for now, I want to show you how to read a grocery circular. Circulars exist almost everywhere. Small grocers have them as...
