    Thumbs up 72 ideas to simplify your life

    A lot of the ideas have been mentioned, but I found this blog a good read!

    http://zenhabits.net/2007/09/simple-...ify-your-life/

    Well, so much for not spending money tonight. I stumbled on Leo's blog, then I decided to buy his new book. It's $10 on Amazon. I should receive the book next week. I'll let you know what I think.

    There are a few audio, video clips for free you can checkout on the website.

    What a great blog. This year I'm really focusing on simplifying and frugal-a-fying. =) I've always been frugal but over the past couple of years I've gotten relaxed with it, bought too many new things that we really don't need. Thanks for sharing it with us.

    Thanks for the link.

    I find it really interesting..and the simple practices sound like things I could accomplish, to maybe FINALLY learn to stay on top of housework.

    As I sit here looking around, my dishes are over loading the sink, my stuff from work is piled by the door, my desk is cluttered, my clothes are half lying on the floor, my garbage needs to go out, my cat has taken over a suitcase that needs to be put away, AND I smell from work and haven't showered yet. Plus, I am stressed out about wedding plans. ROFL. I really could use to follow some of his advice!!!

    Thanks again!
