31 days to clean

31 days to clean Having a Martha House the Mary Way is a Ebook by Sara Mae that I have seen all over other mom or homemaker blogs and it caught my interest. I'm always trying to figure out ways to keep my house clean and how to keep motivation to clean. I kept reading different post from different mom's that are having the same problem and reading this book to help change this. Joyful Mothering started a challenge that Homemaker by choice had accepted. I first heard about it through Homemaker by Choices blog and started to look into it. Today I decided I would buy it and download it to my Ereader and get started on the challenge too.

Day 1: Is figuring out the whys! Why do I want my house clean? If I can figure this out then it will help me have motivation to get it done.

I can easily list off several reasons...allergies, less stress, not searching for hours trying to find something, living a similar life...but to put it into sentences that mean somethings is a little difficult because I'm not normally a good writer but I will try and share it with you all.

My Mission Statement!
My Mission is to live a simpler life! To create a clean and clutter free home that has a place for everything so Rex can learn the importance of organization and we can have more quality family time without the presence of allergies that cause discomfort.

Day one complete!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I hate drama!

I really consider myself and my life pretty drama free. I try my best to keep people that seek after drama at a distance because I really just don't feel like dealing with it. I have certain family that automatically causes it but you know they are family and there isn't much you can do about it but set up boundaries to not allow it to affect your daily life. Which we do! I love all my extended family but sometimes, seriously, just grow up, stop acting like the world revolves around you and get over it. You children have their own families now! Anyway! After dealing with more family drama (disclaimer: the person I'm talking about would not be reading this so if your family and you are it's not you that I'm complaining about :) then I get a nasty note from a neighbor who is just plain being rude. And I love how they waited until I left before putting the note of the door. I haven't had a car for almost 3 full months and this week my hubby finally got his motorcy...
