Top nine blog posts of 2021

30 December 2021


As the year wraps up, I thought I’d take a look back at my favorite posts of 2021. I narrowed it down nine that I thought were particularly helpful. I hope you find them useful (or at least interesting)!

In chronological order:

Challenge completed! 100 days of wearing the same dress. I literally wore the same wool-blend dress every day for 100 days and it was an awesome experience.

Styling your Zoom backdrop. When Zoom became a way of life, I knew that I had to up my game with my Zoom backdrop. So I called in the big gun, my friend Geralin Thomas to help me create a peaceful (and branded) Zoom backdrop.

Decluttering dog toys. My standard poodle, Bix, love his toys. And he had an overabundance of them (to say the least). I gave them the big declutter treatment.

10 things you can throw away right now. Lots of folks hang on to stuff they needn’t be afraid of tossing. This list can get you started throwing stuff away.

Go-bag to the rescue. My husband is having some health issues that have resulted in sudden hospitalizations. I created a hospital go-bag to grab when necessary and it proved to be a great help.

Meet my employees. In 2021 I added a second employee to my team and I (finally) put a page about them on my website. They’re great people and great organizers!

Buying and selling a car in this crazy market. When I decided to take a high offer for my van, I had to use my wits to snag a new car to replace it. Here’s what I did.

Do you back up your computer regularly? My computer suddenly died one day in October and having both a backup on an external hard drive and in the cloud meant I didn’t lose anything (though I may gained some grey hairs in the process).

I feel fortunate to have this blog to help me remember what went on in my life over the last year (last 13 years, actually). It’s so nice to be able to share those things that have helped me.

Thank you for reading this blog. I wish you the very best for 2022!
