Finally, the weekend is here, Reader!

I don’t know about you, but I’m currently curled up with a blanket by the fire while the kids play their games and my husband watches a car chase on Youtube 🤣

Sweet, relaxing, carefree bliss.

I used to collapse on the weekend after a week of chaos: work, rushing the kids around, running out of milk midweek 🤦🏻‍♀️, and let’s not forget last minute dinner decisions.

I’m ashamed to say that it took me a good 10 years to learn that just a wee bit of planning could save me some headaches and whole lot of time! So, planning is great…

but that’s not the simple step I’m referring to:

The real game changer for me was doing just a wee bit of prep in a few different areas, like getting my clothes ready for the week, making sure the car had gas, checking the calendar and marking down when the routine would be adjusted, and…

Making a meal plan and prepping a few things ahead of time.

You might not know this, but I have another Youtube Channel called Minimalist Home Living. On this channel, it’s all about simple living, cooking, preserving & prepping it, and general home stuff.

Earlier this week, I posted this video about how to save loads of time with a bit of preparing.

So, grab a cup of tea and come hang out with me to see how I can save time with some prepping. My goal is for these videos to be relaxing and inspiring!

What can you do to simplify your week, Reader?

Can you make a to-do list for the week, go over your schedule with your husband, or make a meal plan?

Ok, I’m going to watching some Survivor with my hubby,

see you soon!

Happy weekend, Reader! My kids were missing me and called me by the babysitter’s name 🫣, my husband was an overtime working zombie 🧟♂️, and I was run ragged working in the emergency room supporting people going through the worst moments of their lives 😢. I’d come home and try to clean up all the stuff, do laundry, feed my kids, eat, and maybe snuggle them as I fell asleep in their beds. It wasn’t working. Keeping our homes clean and clutter-free can feel like an uphill battle. Whether it’s...

Happy weekend, Reader! Does it ever feel like no matter how hard you try, your home wants to stay hard to clean?? It's like a toddler refusing a bath! It’s frustrating, exhausting, and let’s be real—kind of soul-crushing. You pick up, clean, organize, and then bam!—the mess is back like it never left. The problem? It’s not you. It’s the lack of systems keeping things in place. That’s exactly what I tackled in this week’s first video: Declutter & Organize for a Clean, Tidy Home! I’ll show you...
