I don’t want to get all crazy from the get-go but if anyone heard a bit of screamin’ and hollerin’ coming from this little cottage yesterday, it was probably me.

As I write this post, late Thursday, we’re officially as ready as we can be for Hurricane Hermine.

You guys…what a day…what-a-day! It’s been a total doozie filled with so many frustrating moments. We’re completely back on track so I thought I would share a few things that I’ve learned about keeping your cool during a kitchen makeover and update you on the status of the kitchen so far…
For all of my rock star organizing ways in multiple spaces throughout the house there was always one mess that I could not seem to contain…paper clutter.

This idea led me to the one place it all starts – the car. Here are a few things you can do today to keep the clutter out of your house by organizing your car…
How’s it going for you guys this week? Are you feeling productive, empowered, tired?
