Happy birthday to my little blog.
I wrote my first post 10 years ago 😮 Who knew I’d have so much to say about organising that I’d still be blogging 10 years later?!
It started when we moved into this house and I realised we “didn’t have enough kitchen cupboards” for all our stuff. I even went so far as to get people to quote on installing some more built-ins.
When they gave me the quote, I realised how crazy I was being.
I was prepared to PAY to store stuff I probably wasn’t going to use anytime soon.
And so the decluttering started and my love for organising.
Fun story – when the lady who bought our old house (with twice the amount of storage) told me she needed more cupboards, I told her she had too much stuff. That house had a ton of storage!
Now when people say they want to buy a bigger house because they have too much stuff, I still think they’re crazy. Do you really want to pay Rx-thousand extra a month to store things you should probably throw away?
Just like work expands to fill the available time, so does stuff expand to fill the available space…. if you’re not intentional about keeping on top of your stuff.
Thank you for reading my musings, whether you’ve been reading for one week, one year or all those 10 years. Those were the good old days of blogging 🙂
How long have you been reading the blog?

blogging anniversary? Thanks so much – I keep thinking I’m sure there’s nothing left to say but actually I always have a list of things to talk about so there’s a lot left 🙂
