College football has started and I am trying to watch more games this year. I have a favorite team and last year I only saw one game all season. So far I have watched 2 out of 3 so my average has shot up.
I was watching with interest the coach on the sideline motion one of his players off the field. A mistake had been made by the player and the coach didn’t waste any time throwing a fit as some coaches do but instead he put his arm around the shoulder of the player and started having a conversation with him.
It struck me that we can waste a lot of time while we are getting rid of clutter “throwing fits” and berating ourselves for holding on to something or asking why on earth did we ever buy what we are then getting rid of.
Getting rid of clutter in our homes and lives free us up in the way we feel, the way we treat others and the way we live. To quote a friend “it isn’t brain surgery”, let’s learn from our mistakes and get on with life. Like the football coach we can chose to “get on with the game” and get rid of clutter and move on with our life.

Is that the way you wake up or does the alarm go off and you pop out of bed and start the day on the run? Or do you push the snooze button to stretch out time just a bit more?
I have rogue socks that take off for regions unknown; maybe they are going on safari or to a party but then always go alone. This week I have had two socks leave its mate. But it will be sorry when it finds out I was
Aren’t these egg poachers cute? My daughter bought them at the state fair last week. She has used them almost every day as the eggs taste good, they are so easy to use and clean up is easy. A bonus to these is they don’t take up much room so they don’t clutter up the kitchen!
If you could have any super power in the universe what would it be?
