Decluttering

Simply Being Mum’s Spring Sale 2016

March 24, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Spring has sprung. In fact it sprung on the 20 March. So I'm thinking let's give this Simply Being Mum's Spring Sale malarkey another go guys? My last Spring Sale started off great guns and then a bit of bad luck struck - and I got a little side-tracked. Back on track this year and once again have the (possibly fictitious - but who cares as it ...

Decluttering and Change To Comments

March 3, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Let's talk decluttering and change to comments guys. It's been a while since I've posted about decluttering, but it's still a subject very close to my heart. An urge to get in the groove with decluttering was one of the reasons I first started blogging back in 2010. But really decluttering can be a need to take control. I was feeling overwhelmed. Want to ...

Just £596.76 To Go

July 15, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I set myself (and you) a challenge two weeks ago. Click here to find out more about Simply Being Mum's £600 Summer Challenge. To make £600 selling unwanted items (otherwise known as clutter) from around the home. My deadline is the end of August - not too far in the future I've still £596.76 to go. I'm thinking a little more effort may be required on my ...

Going Back To My Mindful Roots

April 15, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I've always been an over-thinker and an over-analyser. Now this can be a weakness, but it can also be an asset. As with most personality attributes. From time to time I question my reason for blogging. Looking round the blogosphere there are so many blogs to read, and some of such high quality and content, that any self-aware blogger may question - why am ...

Clearing 7 Years Bad Luck

March 22, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

You may have read we're experiencing a bit of bad luck at Chez Wright. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, this post explains it. This isn't a new thing. In fact it started 18 April 2008. That'd add up to almost 7 years of bad luck, if my mental arithmetic serves me right. Now I'm thinking it's not bad karma. I've been clocking up karma points, ...

Do You Feel The Urge To Purge?

February 23, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

"When I purge, I get an endorphin rush. I feel a huge weight is lifted from me. As I remove stuff I no longer have to worry about maintaining it, finding a place to keep it or think about updating it. For every new thing I bring into my home I shed another. It’s liberating." Chris Wray. Regular readers to my blog will know that decluttering, and reducing ...

That Was Then, This Is Now

January 7, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I've always loved baking. One of my first baking memories was making a cake for Charles and Diana's wedding in July 1981 - I was 7. It was frosted red, white and blue. Baking was a favourite rainy Sunday afternoon pastime, for me, as a child. My Mom, always keen for me to get 'hands on' would leave me to my devices, with minimal supervision. I learned a ...

Open House / A Book & Cake

October 16, 2014 by SimplyBeingMum

It's Thursday Guys. The blog is open, and anything goes. I'll kick off with a few of my own ramblings today. ...

Clear Your Clutter Completely

October 13, 2014 by SimplyBeingMum

"Today is your day to let go of things that no longer serve you." Katrina Mayer. We've spent a significant amount of the last two weekends, clearing the clutter at Chez Wright. Christmas is coming (there I said it) and we're decluttering in preparation of the change of seasons. But that's not the only reason. My daughter has started holding an annual ...

Open House / Redecorating, The C Word & Mr Thornton

October 2, 2014 by SimplyBeingMum

I enjoyed last Thursday's Open House, so much, everyone. Thank you for popping by. I hope you'll be over again today? You may have noticed that my virtual home has been redecorated. I'm not really one for change, but fancied a little bit of colour. Now, I only use free WordPress templates, currently, so I'm limited in what I can do to the place ;) But ...
