It’s easy for me to get distracted. Very distracted. Like I’m typing this blog and see my nails on the keyboard and grab the nail filer. Like I’m working on a training program and I remember we need garbage bags so I start a shopping list. Like I’m in the middle of making dinner, hear…
I’m plagued with little piles lurking all over the house and they’re making me crazy! I seem to have remnants of stuff everywhere as seasonal things have been in and out the last few weeks. Fall wreaths, candles and tableware Halloween decorations and costumes Diwali candles, silver and lights Some of it has made it…
Do you have a hard time letting go of things? Feel like you’ll lose a part of yourself if you don’t keep an item? If you’re nodding your head yes, you’re going to love today’s episode of LIO TV. Even if you’re in the habit of decluttering, it can be hard to deal with…
Two more weeks! Just two more weeks and summer vacay is over in The Parikh household. Here in Nashville, school starts up the first week of August. Back to routines, getting up early, packing lunches, rounding up backpacks and making carpool. I looooove when those mornings go smoothly. But when we’re off, WE. ARE….
I can’t take it any more. I have a pair of gorgeous boots that have needed to be re-heeled for…wait for it…over two years. (It’s even more embarrassing writing it out). I. AM. OVER. IT.! Sweet cobbler (who’s only three miles from my house – yes, really), here I come! Two years is a long…
I have envy. California Closet envy. I have white, builder grade, wire rods in my closet. Not pretty. And limited in functionality. I recognize this is a very first-world problem to have. Rods in my walk-in closet in my beautiful home. Tough life, I know. Still, I’m not gonna lie. I salivate when I see…
“Don’t forget to wash your hands.” “Close the door behind you.” “Pick up your clothes.” “Like I told you ten times before – it’s behind your socks in the second drawer.” It seems like half the job of being a mom is reminding everyone of…um…EVERYTHING! 😉 Seriously, I had no idea this was part…
You know when you walk into a room and you think, “OMG, this place is making me crazy!” So you group things up, stack them, shuffle them around and rearrange everything in the room – so it’s all “organized.” Yet you wonder why it’s a disaster again in just a matter of hours. Now…
Today’s episode is on the subject of something I’ve been thinking about for a while. Like the last couple of years. It impacts the way my husband and I raise our kids. It impacts how we make our decisions about what we bring into our home. And it impacts our happiness. Wow, that’s a…
Ever bought makeup and gotten a free gift, like a sample of lipstick, mascara, lotion and some kind of branded bag? Or maybe bought makeup just to get those things? 😉 I’ve done both. And generally there’s only one item in the freebies that looks good on my skin color, or that I actually remember to…
