I have attempted a shopping ban a few times over the past few years, and I have failed. I don’t think you can go hog wild on ceasing to shop all together unless you have a reasonable outline of what is allowed and what is not allowed, and you check in monthly for accountability. I …

Day 21 – Summer 2018 Mins Game
Today’s purge is a biggie! I culled the closet to see what I could find & I found a lot. I probably could have selected a few more items and I may before the end of this minimalism challenge, but I still find myself attached to some things, which I want to give another chance. …

Day 19 – Summer 2018 Mins Game
I almost didn’t post this today as I am dead beat from the heat wave which has infected Nova Scotia. The humidity is sucking the life force out of me, and thank God for air conditioning which I have at home, sadly not in the archaic building I work in. Today’s purge is another …

Day 16 – Summer 2018 Mins Game

Day 15 – Summer 2018 Mins Game
I have never been much of a collector, but over a decade ago I fell in love with the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series & I was obsessed. I bought fan fiction, the complete box set on DVD, I had magnets, magazines, Xbox video games and action figures. Yes, I majorly geeked out on Buffy. …
Day 13 – Summer 2018 Mins Game
I am trimming everything down in my life as I have so much stuff I cannot use it all. Even my knickers’ drawer is bursting at the seams. I work out a lot so my full back panties are rarely worn. I am not throwing these out and yes, I am giving them away. …
