Organizer

So, I had my first hour with a professional organizer/home stager/decorated this week. A very sweet lady named Marcie. I showed her around the house and talked to her about my hopes and dreams, and we began thinking of some solutions to our space problems.

In 2010, the average square feet in new single-family homes was 2394. Our home is 1432, built in 1950. We have three bedrooms, one small bathroom, and a two-car garage.

I really enjoy the challenge of living in a smaller space. I enjoy that we use our entire house and trying to come up with ideas of how to better use the space.

With three boys, we have acquired a lot over the years and I have begun digging out this summer, but it's a lot of work and it doesn't come easily to either one of us. When I get into decluttering mode though, it does get easier. I stop buying as many things and start feeling less emotionally-attached and beholden to the things I have. So, I've decided to work with Marcie and get some ideas from her. We had a great rapport and it was fun to brainstorm with her - gets my mind churning.
