Simplify

I LOVE New Years resolutions! A fresh start! Lots of hope! Endless supplies of goals to tackle! I normally make 10 goals for the year-not kidding...and a few weeks in I lose steam! This year I decided to chose a word a month to guide 2018! For January I chose simplify!

Life is FULL of ALL the things right now, so this was a great word to start with! I started to simplify my spaces! Here is A’s homework basket before and after!

Clean and ready for the new year!

Oh boy! Ryan and I tackled the garage together! A lot of this went up in the attic. I need to take an after picture:)!

This was FULL of art work! Now it is full of Valentines pics:)!

We’ve also simplified some of our bills. I stopped a music and book monthly subscription. I am behind on my audible books, so I paused my subscription and will get caught up instead of letting the books pile up!! We also cut cable this month...this has been a game changer in simplifying our time!

Back to simplifying my kitchen-what a mess!

After!

Before!

After! This took about 1 hour to simplify drawers, my kitchen pantry and fridge! Our space is so much more peaceful now!

I love these suggestions! Definitely a work in progress for me!

Wow! I’m doing several of these but not all-great ideas!

With Ainsley’s medical needs we can sometimes get overwhelmed...so we are simplifying there too! Right now our focus is on her ears! She had surgery last week and we see both of her ear surgeons for follow up apts and I’ll post an update on that soon!

Simplify=more space for life and this sweet girl! Hope your 2018 is off to a great start!
