decluttering: The Cost of Clutter - 01/27/10 03:44 PM
In a recent Pre-Market Home Selling Consultation, I recommended to a Calgary, Alberta home seller that they begin the process of moving and packing now. They were moving for a job transfer and were hesitant about having to do this since their employer would pay for the movers to pack later. It didn't initially make sense to them why they should go to the hassle of packing when they were going to get that service for free.

decluttering: Just Do It! Decluttering for Your Mental Health - 11/12/09 11:57 AM
I love sleeping. Nothing makes me feel better than having that full 8 hours, and then just greeting the day full of energy and appreciation for all things good in life. Unfortunately, more often than not, this is more of a "dream" than reality!
Yesterday I woke up earlier than I needed to (groan), as I have been doing for too long now.
