Organizing The Fridge: When To Toss Condiments Out!



My Dad used to have this condiment table on his fridge. However, he was known to throw things out before they expired. Milk, eggs and anything left over a day was sure to get tossed. I ended up adopting this method.

3 Healthy Tips To Help Stop Shopping From Home

Do you spend a lot of time inside tempted by QVC, home shopping networks, and the internet ? 
  1. Resist the urge by taking a walk. This provides energy  and clears your mind for a while. When you go back home or to work, try and align your space with your renewed positivity. A clear mind is the best way to start clearing your personal clutter.
  2. Budget. Leave no room in your budget for unnecessary items. Think about your future, and your retirement. How important will this stuff be to you when you need money the most?
  3. Change the channel. Don't paruse your TV or the internet for shopping sites. There are hundreds of other shows you can watch that don't involve you spending your money.
Shopping addiction is a real issue folks. Try your best and and don't be hard on yourself. Every day is a new beginning, and you will face many challenges along your journey. Best of luck.
