    I have a small home and live a pretty minimal life. I had people coming over last night and there was no cleaning for days or panic cleaning. I did a few dishes and dusted surfaces in my living room. Then vacuumed... on my lunch hour... with a half hour left to eat and relax. Love these tips!

    I used to think about the “what if” scenarios. And then I told myself If I end up planning a get together, I’ll grab disposable items. In your situation, I’d have a stack of disposable solo cups for the ready if there was talk of them coming over. Doesn’t take as much space as keeping all the wine glasses around. Also, who wants to wash that many wine glasses anyway 😊 And you’re right, it was fine!! ❤

    I started decluttering about 7 years ago, when I had just had my 4th baby. I am now about to have my 7th baby and I can't imagine how we could function if our house was as full as it used to be! Our house still gets absolutely trashed pretty much everyday with so many people and pets but we can all chip in to tidy up and get everything thing pulled back together in an hour. Having so few of things like dishes and laundry so that we physically can't get behind is a game changer. We can't go a week without doing laundry, so it forces us to keep up with a load or 2 each day. I don't have enough dishes to go an entire day without doing the dishes. It really helps when you know you can't get so behind that it will take hours to catch up.

    ❤ I'm soooo guilty of constantly moving furniture, swapping decor, buying decor and changing furniture, always moving my plants around, organising and reorganising kids toys and kitchen multiple times a year, etc 🤦 Also having problems with finding place for new incoming items (especially after holiday season)... And often being temperamental, anxious and overly dramatic when I have too much on my to-do list and always rushing somethere because I'm late (it's not about the material clutter yet about cluttered mind and schedule). And often feeling uninspired in my kitchen too 😢
    Thank you for your observations! 🤗

    Iam so glad you posted this. My family member was so mad Christmas for not having a long stem wine glass. We have tumblers and unbreakable wine glasses and she was upset no espresso maker. 😳 I just blew it off. Also the just in case we are downsizing to a condo being 60 and I always say what if the kids need somewhere to go in an emergency well they own their own home. I am a pro at making scenarios in my head😮

    I had a friend who was a hoarder, and her attachment to things overwhelmed my space. Her "just in case" mentality led to clutter, making it impossible to relax at home. Eventually, I had to declutter for my mental health, but she didn't understand and became upset when I got rid of items. Realizing her negativity, I chose to end the friendship to prioritize my well-being.

    my washing machine is broken... that's a good sign that I don't want stuff on top of the washing machine or around it.
    but it leaves me conflicted on if I need more clothes (already 50 pieces total) and more 'just in case' towels and paper towels.

    I dread coming home because all i do is vacumn, cook, clean and laundry. We are a family of six and while my house is declutterred and minimal having a family is so much work. I just want to go for a hike for a week and not do one chore. Maybe when I am 80 years old. I get to clean my house because I am healthy and my family lives in a clean home ❤

      When it comes to cleaning and cooking it can all be very overwhelming! Sometimes small thing a added can actually help like our mop I’ve talk about before and our off brand rumba that vacuums our main floor everyday really helps my daily life ❤️ hope this helps let me know if you have any other ideas I’m sure we have all felt like you ❤️❤️

      @@minimalease I will look for your mop recommendation. And do you think the rumba is as good as a human doing the work. We have 4 kids plus their friends over daily after school. I swear they drop crumbs as they walk around the kitchen. I am thankful our kids love being home just after 16 years of doing this and I am older you get tired and a little grumpy about it. I know I am lucky to have a home to clean too. And we have very little in our home which I am so thankful for.

      This is so relatable. I actually paid a lot of money for a life coach have me write down all these tasks and then circle the ones that only I could do. That turned out to be 3-4 things. Anyone else is capable of chopping veggies, sweeping, etc. Can your family share the load more: what can you delegate?
