Do you guys get anxiety when a repairman is coming

Do you guys get anxiety when a repairman is coming, and you're home alone? Where do I go in my home? Do we small talk? Do I need to hang out with you? Do you want me to just go to a different room? Am I going to be an episode of @truecrimegarage?

Because a repairman was coming between 12-3, I anxiety-cleaned the entire 1st floor. Then I anxiety-decorated because there were leftover christmas lights and a garland hanging out on a chair on the porch next to a sled. Then I sat in the sunshine on the porch in 75° sunshine until the repairman came. Turns out, I'm alive and you just go about your life while the repairman is doing the things. 😂

I am slightly crispy and stoked on the sunshine, with a replaced heating element in my dishwasher. My soul is full... at least until this warm spell is over in a few days.😂 ☀️🌻

This is an accurate representation of our day... U $This is an accurate representation of our day... Unfinished. 😂 I really thought it would be to a state of doneness, but I was mistaken. Rule 1: It's never wise is to assume a truly simple project will take a corresponding amount of time. Rule 2: It will lead to more reno projects, 100% of the time. 4 of the 13 pieces are weird obtuse angles, only 3 pieces are up, one needs the railing to be removed, and a few need to be cut down whateverthe smallest fraction on the measuring tape is (1/32? 1/16?) Because the friggin door trim is bowed just a teeny bit. 😘😘😘 #farmhousemade #bohofarhouse #bohofarmhousestyle #salvage #shiplapwalls #$

In today's episode of 'what in the fresh hell is happening here,' I present to you the game drawers. What. On Earth. Is Happening Here. 😵‍💫

I typically store board game pieces in gallon ziplock bags, ditch the boxes because they don't fit anywhere. Then the bags eventually rip open and then Horseopoly and Monopoly are all mixed together, and someone has to sort the barns from the hotels. There's also the issue of those weird non-board game games that never fit. And small games, like uno. I got these super sturdy looking plastic zip top pouches on Amazon, they come in different sizes, but I got the big jawns because I didn't measure first. Let's goooooo!

Goodbye is right. 👋

The amount of stuff I tossed, you guys... I can't.

The amount of stuff I tossed, you guys... I can't. I think I counted 4 different boxes of graham crackers open at once, and the graham cracker storage container was definitely mostly empty. Same with pretzels. And the school snack basket of snackety snacks. Why do I even have 4 open boxes of crackers at once!? I can't remember the last time I saw my kids with a graham cracker, to be honest.

The rules I decided on are...
- Don't shop for things until you use what's in the overstock bins to refill whatever it is.
- Try to buy only what will fit in the containers as they empty out. If I have 3 snack containers, just get 3 snacks, not 5, because 2 will have no home.

Pantry Hot Takes...
- Before you give me a load of crap over having overstock I have to store... sometimes the bulk peach cups don't all fit in the bin. Sometimes I want to hide the mini muffins because they disappear too fast. Sometimes I only want a few fruit strips out at a time. SOMETIMES YOU BUY 4 BOXES OF GRAHAM CRACKERS BY ACCIDENT.
- Sometimes the packaging looks chaotic. Sometimes the packaging takes up so much space. Sometimes you can't reseal the graham crackers. Just get nice containers and put your stuff in them and move on.
- Pretty containers and baskets will not keep you organized.

I also found a new box of applesauce cups. What a time to be alive.

This morning I was helping with shoes and coats at

This morning I was helping with shoes and coats at the front door and asked the kids to "go grab your school snack!" Then we ran to the bus stop. I walked home and to the kitchen to realize this is what they left behind in their trail of rushed-snack-decision-making destruction. This is the culmination of probably a week or so of Incremental Mess Growth of 5 people in a small pantry who forget that things have a home in here. 87% of the time, it doesn't look like... whatever that is, and everyone can find what they're looking for in peace. The rest of the time, it's in need of maintenance.

No matter how many lovely baskets you have, or how organized your stuff is, if you don't maintain and follow the "put it where it goes" rule, you too can have a pantry that looks like mine. Follow for more tips on how to trash a pantry amd cry!

I loooooove when people show their 'real life vs instagram' photos. I relate a lot of the time, and sometimes... I don't. If you have to curate your mess, you're simply not messy and that is OK. If you slap a filter on this mess to make it palatable, that's OK too.

My kids have underwear, socks, hoodies, shoes, school stuff, sporting equipment literally everywhere, as if their bodies shot the clothing and paddock boots and football flags and gymnastics leotards and scrunchies and hairspray and uncomfortable jeans clear off their bodies. And they lie there sometimes for a few days. Sometimes we're really great about not putting things down (put them away), and using drop zones for stuff. Sometimes it falls apart.

It's rough in winter, man. If the sun isn't blazing, if the mercury is below 40°, if our collective stuff accumulates too long, that anxiety & overwhelm creep in so fast. If that's you, I see you! I like dig myself out by tackling an area of visible clutter first. Today, it should have been my island. But it wasn't, my kids and I tidied their bedrooms and I found lots of socks. Maybe tomorrow. 🤣

I've been learning how to draw on Procreate, and I've been borrowing my daughters iPad and her stylus thing while she's at school to take a few @everytuesday courses and doodle my way to some super cute boho farmhouse vibe home decor stickers to add to my Etsy shop. Thanks Lilly for teaching me what you learned in a random Outschool course for sticker making, your tablet & stylus while you're at school, and for keeping my files in my folder among your (super good) doodles.

Everyone needs painted furniture, good vibes, and houseplants that never die.😂
