Getting Rid of our Junk Week 5 and 6 of 54

For week 5, I pulled a Queen which means 50 items and because I was so late with week 5 I pulled week 6 along with it and got a 2. Each week I try to pick an area to declutter and my husband and son brought up this week’s area. My son was commentingContinue reading “Getting Rid of our Junk Week 5 and 6 of 54”

Getting Rid of our Junk Week 4 of 54

For week 4, I pulled a Joker. This is the highest card to pull and thankfully there are only 2 of them. Oh did I have fun with this card.

Week 17 – What We are Eating and How Much We Spent on Groceries

Getting Rid of our Junk Week 3 of 54

I had an interesting response from a reader after last week’s post. The reader loved the idea of clearing the clutter in her own home but didn’t feel that they really had that much stuff and she would struggle with the high cards such as the Kings which would be 100 items. I want toContinue reading “Getting Rid of our Junk Week 3 of 54”

It’s already week 2 and I pulled a 4 for this week. A small card means large items need to be hauled out. We have a usable attic in this house and in the past it was my grandfather’s train room.

Week 14 – What We are Eating and How Much We Spent on Groceries 2022

Wowsers did prices go sky high in just over a week. I hadn’t really noticed that large of an increase until this week’s shopping trip. Eggs and butter seemed to be the biggest jump for me. $4/doz for eggs and $5/lb for generic butter. Yikes! I asked the guys about the price and Mr. ChrisContinue reading “Week 14 – What We are Eating and How Much We Spent on Groceries 2022”

Week 12 – What We are Eating and How Much We Spent on Groceries 2022

Last week was a bit of a strange week in the food department because my son was gone until Wednesday and the Hubbs and I just winged it. We only ate out twice.
