Yesterday morning, my study could only be described with one word: cluttered. Yes, you heard me right. Filled with things that surely had other places to belong! It reminded me of the different moves I’ve had this year; surfaces heaped with random bits you need, furniture cramped into the space, special items that no longer … Continue reading Home Refresh (and renewing contentment)
I know something that can prevent people from getting on top of cleaning and organising can be how overwhelming the tasks feel. This is made even harder on the days when our personal lives feel difficult; cleaning can be the last thing we have energy for. If someone isn’t even motivated to get out of … Continue reading Rhythms of Cleaning
It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve blogged. I’ve sat down numerous times to write out a post, but I’ve been distracted with everything that’s been going on. Because – I moved!

We lived, but none of our other possessions made it. I come back to this dream … Continue reading At Home: being faithful with what we have
I have written about the seasons countless times. It is perhaps the thing I admire and appreciate most of God’s creation (other than flowers, maybe). I love that God gave us organised change, and the chance for something different and new. The beginning of each season always feels like a blessing; starting something is special. … Continue reading Slowly Receiving Autumn
I’ll admit; there are times to buy aprons! There are times when we move house and we can organise things in new or better ways. We may have more space for linen, an extra bedroom, or a laundry with a sink. These are good things, and they can be a relief and joy to us … Continue reading At Home: we do what we can
