Oy! Yesterday I had one of those thoughts, you know, a small idea like: "Hey, I should really go through my closet and do a purge". Which turned into: "I don't like half of my wardrobe anymore, why do I have so much stuff?". Which lead to: "I should clean out ALL the rooms in the house! We need to simplify our lives!", and was all super-motivated until I picked up Liam, got home and wanted nothing more than a nap. 

However, as much as I do adore having projects and all of that, I really do feel like some changes need to be made. I hate being so tired all of the time from trying to squeeze everything in, it isn't fun if you are too cranky to enjoy it, amiright? That being said, I am back to revisiting my resolutions! Woot woot!

    I purge my closet ALL the time. I don't know why but it usually takes multiple rounds of cleaning and not wearing something for years (stuff from college) for me to get rid of it.

    Good luck on those resolutions. xo

    HaHa Sara! Sometimes our tastes change. Have you thought about selling some of your stuff on eBay? It's a great way to make extra change. When I get tired of stuff I put it on there.

    This is one of my favorite outfits from you! Love the color palette and the combo of plaid with lace!

    On another note, I don't know why but I never respect my resolutions. I always postpone and I end never doing it.

    Your impulse to accomplish so much is admirable, but you're tired 'cause you're trying to do so much. There's a solution -- you need to hire an assistant. Someone who'll run after the simple tasks, freeing you up for the more difficult chores. Just tell Kyle to add it into your budget. :)

    I've recently decided I have too much clothes even though a lot of them have tears or rips that I end up stitching up a little. . .but I see too many threadbare clothing on children in other countries that I feel incredibly guilty having the amount of clothes I have. . .so that explains the lack of clothing posts from me lately. Did you enjoy your purging of your closet?
    Great job on learning to crotchet!!! I try to read 4-6 books a week (which I do), but I was sad this week because I am not even halfway through my current book I'm reading and have already been reading it for a week. I get sleepy when I read it, even during the day. Hope you have better success in the reading area!! I like this top with the dress! Looks so fun!!
