0/5⭐ I feel horrible for the ADHDer who is subject to these methods.

The part that broke me: “Better [your college kid] should run out of clothes once a week and then stand staring at the dryer in their bathrobe, totally focused, because they are hungry and need clothes to enter the dining hall.“

1. The clothes, toys, beds/blankets and other items from my pets who have passed away
2. Electronics. If they work, I don't get rid of them just so I can buy the newest technology
3. Clothes. I will wear them until they start to get holey or ratty tatty. I also don't get rid of clothes just so I can be the newest trends

Everything in its place! Apparently #DannyBoy is school supplies now…which actually makes sense for our homeschool.

I‘ve been overwhelmed in recent months and am working on getting myself organized and functioning better. I hope to catch up on reviews over the next few days, without a full-on blast! Stay tuned to see what I‘ve been reading.

ravenlee @Ruthiella @RaeLovesToRead @dabbe @julesG @kspenmoll he‘s been kind of a terror the last two mornings, so when he was nosing around the cart I said fine, whatever will make you settle for two minutes! and I moved the bottom stuff. He did, in fact, stay for about two minutes, before resuming his terrorist antics. 4mo

I appreciate the irony that some of my clutter consists of multiple issues of a magazine dedicated to making life simpler. They used to occupy two shelves plus an overflow area, and now it‘s down to one shelf on the bookcase that‘s holding my #readordonate books. Getting the subscription finally stopped also helped, but that‘s another story! There weren‘t many January issues, and they‘re gone, so I‘m working on December now. #monthlymagazineblitz

julieclair Real Simple are some of the hardest magazines to part with! Good for you for not stopping at January! 👍 4mo

“For me, hope is not a metaphor; it's a lived practice. I don't have hope, I do hope. Hope for me is grounded in the reality that wondrous things happen alongside and parallel to the terrible. Every single day.“

This book was just what I needed to read right now.

For the #URC prompt “an anti-fascist“ book and also my #DoubleSpin choice.

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!!! 5mo

I love the content of this book, even if the way it was written was a little challenging for me to follow. adrienne marie brown presents ideas about leadership in movements that require a collective action that profoundly resonate with me. She uplifts the people that inspired her, notable among them Octavia Butler.

Right book for the state of mind I'm in. As someone who lives by myself and has a full time job and hobbies to keep me busy, I find it hard to find the energy to keep my place sparkling clean all of the time. I compare myself to others and feel like I'm doing something wrong by not being a minimalistic neat freak 🙈 This book wasn't life changing but had some good tips. More about changing your mindset about your mess than a how-to guide.

Billypar I definitely think our culture goes overboard on the minimalist aesthetic. Whenever I take photos for Litsy posts, I have to move an average of five random objects out of the way 😄 8mo
CaliforniaCay @Billypar Right?! I like the idea of being a minimalist but I like my stuff too much to actually be one 😅 8mo

DNF at 20%. Just couldn't do it anymore. As far as I got into she was constantly promoting classes and videos and using plenty of buzz words without providing a strategy. Also couldn't stand her voice.
