#And to sweep I had to clean litterboxes and vacuum

[owlthex]

It should be ILLEGAL how many steps/how much effort it takes for me to put up a Christmas tree. Especially since

THE CHRISTMAS TREE ISNT EVEN UP!

I am so so tired

What is a rest? What is a good night's sleep? My oldest has a cold and is clingy. My youngest has gone from a kiddo with a good sleep routine and a nighttime cuddle to having the biggest tantrums EVER. I spent THREE hours last night getting her to bed.

I don't know how I stayed calm. I don't.

I say tantrum I mean shrieking "NO! YOU STUPID!" and kicking and hitting and running off and sobbing like she's being murdered and hiding under beds, in closets, etc. Like... please understand. She is a very sweet child. Frilly flannel nightgown with minnie mouse on it. Little wispy hair. Just a full-on nightmare.

And then I had to get the older to sleep. Because it has to be mommy. And she took another HOUR to go to sleep! T__T.

Like...I work full time. I do the grocery shopping. The meal-planning. Wrangling daycare and school. I do most of the cooking. I still have 2 loads of laundry to fold. By time I get the kids to bed? It's too late to vacuum so I pick stuff up by hand and put it in the garbage. I wish I had hardwood - at least I could mop at night. You look crazy, sweeping cheese off of carpet.

I come home and the List wasn't done. Put away laundry? I video'd everything - what it was, where it was. Closets and drawers are labeled. And there is still. laundry. not. put. away. OK. I'll just do it. Litterbox? Floor wasn't swept. Grab the broom and dustpan. Not enough litter put into the box. Do that, too.

Dishes? Hah! A paltry amount. A mountain awaiting wash. And the few that did get washed? Not properly clean.

Fill the diaper bag, make sure there's spare clothes. Wash out the lunch box. Brush hair. Eczema lotion. Style hair. Convince toddler to pick an outfit from the options presented. Meal-prep. School lunches- ensure they're allergy-friendly! School - events, check with teachers, return library books. Holidays! Gotta do valentines. Make sure snow pants are clean and dry. And coats. Don't forget to wash them once a week!

Change sheets. Clean couch cushion covers. Bath time! Let me clean your hair, clean your ears. Trim cats' claws. Play games to learn letters/words/taking turns. Color. Draw. Do Lego and playdoh to strengthen hand muscles.

Playdates/activities. Grocery shopping. Gas in the car. Bills. Clothes for children who seem determined to destroy or outgrow everything. Wear your bra til it falls apart because they're expensive.

Try to reach out to your friends at least once a week so you can TRY to maintain those relationships. It's usually a 5-minute phone call on your drive home because that is the only time you have to yourself.

Be constantly sick. Cry over the price of medicine. Cry over the cost of groceries. Try to find deals. This may mean driving all over town and four different stores.

And all of this dragging two kids and a husband you're taking care of but who would rather play video games for 10 hours and has memory problems. Wonder how much is the illness and how much is incompetence.

Get everything done. Sit...no energy for a book. No energy for a movie or show. No energy to knit or crochet. No energy to write.

Does...does it ever end?

Do you like the wood bath "mats"? Where did you get them?

i-will-not-be-caged

Also curious about the wood bath mats! Does water drip onto the floor underneath? Do you have to wipe it up or is it negligible enough that it can just evaporate?

(Regarding these) 

I do like them a lot; my bathroom is where the kitty litterbox lives, so it tends to get kind of a dirty floor, and when I had a carpet down, the carpet just clung to whatever dust, cat hair, litter etc. came in and was a pain to vacuum. When I didn’t have a carpet down, it just went everywhere. Either way, getting out of the shower every morning, my wet feet would step on the floor/carpet and pick up all kinds of unpleasantness. 

My first time at the Korean spa up in Niles, I saw them using a similar mat to these to elevate peoples’ feet off the floors a little, which kept their feet cleaner (because the slats have holes any debris can fall through) and also make cleaning easier (just lift the mats and sweep underneath). So I bought one to replace my “getting out of the shower” mat, and it worked great. I knew I wanted to replace the rug in the bathroom with more mats, but I held off because pulling up the rug, cleaning up the adhesive under it, ordering the mats etc. seemed like a good chore for November. 

These are Gobam, a Chinese brand, which I like because they’re built very sturdily; other brands tend to have much thinner slats and fewer supports, and Gobam also have little rubber feet that keep them from skidding. They aren’t cheap, but they’re worth the extra cost in my opinion. The only place you can really get them retail in the US is from Amazon, although once I found them on Amazon I checked eBay and was able to buy them there for a comparable price. 

They’re very stable, smooth on the feet, with narrow gaps so the gaps don’t hurt your feet either, and they’re relatively lightweight so easy to lift and move if you want to sweep under them. I used the mat by the bathtub for about six months without bothering to sweep or mop up underneath it, and it was actually quite clean when I checked it -- no mildew from the water, very little dirt under it. It depends on how much water you like to shed when coming out of the shower (I dry myself off while standing in the shower and only then exit) but I haven’t had any concerns about water collecting underneath them.

I bought a vacuum today and I have never been more excited about cleaning.

Aka how I know I am a lame adult person.

November 5

(AM)

In the moments when I’m lonely and longing for a life partner who lives with me and cooks for me and prods me to do the many projects around the house that need doing, I imagine what it will be like to make room in my house for another person. I’ve lived a long time, I contain multitudes, and each of those multitudes requires at least one room’s décor dedicated to it. This décor includes lighting, wall art, and hella knickknacks, which I’m learning are perhaps privileges and not rights. I am a terrible housekeeper. I keep the kitchen and the bathroom mostly liveable at all times, I scoop litterboxes regularly, and I do clean up obvious messes that are clearly out of place (cat vomit, food splatter, errant toiletries). I even keep up mostly with sweeping as I like to pad around barefoot or in socks.

But when it comes to, say, vacuuming the cat hair off the couch or dusting, I am Not Good. I’ve also lived alone for so long that I’ve gotten in the horrible habit of embarking on a Project – hanging knickknack boxes; reconditioning my leather goods in the wake of The Mold Issue (it was penicillin-ish, not the black stuff, praise the baby Jesus) – and quitting part of the way through (usually because of time constraints and a commitment of some kind), leaving the evidence scattered in my wake. (Currently on my floor are a pile of shoes, boots, and purses and some leather cleaner. My knickknack boxes and said knickknacks are strewn across the dining room table and the hearth of my wood stove. My intentions are good. I know that I want to complete these projects and honor the energy I spent starting them. Sadly, motivation and energy are not available On Demand in my life, and significant time elapses between the beginning of the project and the cleaning up of the aftermath.

I have cats. Cats come with shed hair and the occasional DIY beach simulation beyond the litter box. Dust happens. It happens with alarming regularity and perseverance. It’s most pronounced on the shelves that don’t get touched very often (all the stuff that’s just for looking at; the bookshelves that are too rarely visited). As my media consumption leans further toward streaming, dust has enveloped the stereo, CD racks, and TV console. If anyone besides me saw the state to which I’ve allowed my home to be taken over by the assorted cobwebs (imagine Ms. Havisham’s tablescape), I would have the sense to be ashamed. I would also shrug, rail against the social expectations that single home-owning women are expected to meet, and usher my guest out the door to attend whatever function has brought them over in the first place.

At this point it is fair to ask why I don’t just hire a cleaning service. Well. Remember that whole lack of energy and motivation thing? There are conditions in which I am willing to live, but I would never ask someone to clean up after me until my home was in some sort of organized and settled initial state. It’s been at least two and a half years since I can honestly say this has been the case. (That’s not even including the dresser drawer that is almost certainly on the bedroom floor.

First, the cats moved in. I took in the cats when they were three and their owner was moving out of state. His situation involved temporary lodging with a friend and the cats weren’t welcome, so Jack and Lily (formerly Jill) came to live with me. When they came, I’d been a cat-free home for just about a year. Long enough to get rid of litterboxes and food bowls, but not long enough to pull up the wall-to-wall carpet the house came with. And I really wanted to get the carpet up, as my dearly departed Bo, who is really the reason I bought this house, was bulimic for most of his life. And his life was a long one, so he had his own crotchety habits, which included peeing in places that were not the litter box. I cleaned up behind him to the best of my ability, but my guess was that new cats would be able to tell he’d left parts of himself behind. (Besides the handful of whiskers that I collected when they fell out. Did I mention I’m a witch?)

Since the cat acquisition was, on my timeline, relatively rushed, and my bookshelves and couch are heavy, I made the executive decision to cut what carpet I could get to away and go back for the remnants later. The cats are now six, this is officially their Gotcha month, and three years later, we’re all still living with those remnants and the exposed paint splattered plywood floor revealed by removing the carpet. (We’ve also learned a hard lesson about how much insulation that carpet provided in the winters since its removal.)

I had every intention of putting down new flooring, but that requires money. Which I had more of before The Mold Incident.

The Mold Incident announced itself most obviously on a leather duffel bag I brought home from India (21 inches long for $45 US and I had acquired more than my suitcase could hold) and a leather backpack I got in Italy (25 years ago). A person other than myself would have assessed and remediated the situation in a timely fashion, I imagine. I know people exist who don’t have anxiety about phone calls and who get things done rather than letting them pile up, and I wish one of them lived in my house. (Future significant other, I’m looking at [for] you.) I, on the other hand, let the situation continue to worsen until it was obvious that the problem was not going away, no matter how hard I ignored it.

One mold inspection later, I was assured that the mold was of the friendly green-ish antibiotic kind and not the deadly black kind, and assured that the problem was simply one of humidity. Encapsulating my crawl space and installing drainage and a sump pump would keep the mold from coming back. (Remember those two thousand-year floods that destroyed historic Ellicott City twice in three years? I live up the hill from historic Ellicott City and my town also flooded in that second storm. I knew that water was sitting in my crawl space when I saw a wet spot on my bedroom floor.)

Cleaning the mold that was already in the house would cost, I was told, somewhere around $5K. Or I could do it myself, using a one-to-one combination of white vinegar and blue Dawn. All I had to do was wipe down all of the walls, ceilings, furniture, and exposed surface. And launder every article of clothing in my closet and coat rack. A friend lent me a garment rack that lived in my dining room as I took everything out of the closet and put back the mold-free stuff, culling for things that could go to donation bags because my closet was Way Too Full.

I finally gave back the garment rack, but the pile of shoes and bags remains. And the cleaning every exposed surface fizzled out (though the bucket, rags, and ingredients remain at the ready). Encapsulating the crawl space required getting in there and cleaning everything out (the pile of mildewed insulation was…something), which required pulling up part of the floor in the spare room. (Where my contractor saw the places in the floor likely to cave in and installed three new joists to prevent that. He also replaced the part of the wall in the closet that was secretly a hole hidden under siding and, while he was at it, finished the siding on the house that was begun when he built me a new utility room.)

Are you tracking the costs that are adding up? Clearing the crawl space, installing the joists, hanging the siding, and finally the encapsulation itself. Altogether, I basically bought a new economy car and shoved it under my house. The only part of it I can see is the siding, and that’s not even the color I really wanted (because the color I wanted was “premium”; for the sake of all you hold holy get the big things the way you really want them if you possibly can [that should probably go for the small things too]). And my floors are still paint splattered plywood.

(PM)

The hanging of the siding knocked lots of pictures and knickknacks from the walls, which led to the removal of a shelf that held the knickknacks, which revealed paint that needs to be touched up. Well, there’s no point in doing the floors until the walls are painted. Okay, but there’s a fist-sized hole in the electrical panel in the spare room that needs to be patched first. Which I can finally get to now that the HVAC is installed. Did I mention the new HVAC system? Maybe it was a new midline car, one third of which is in the attic.

Where was I?

I’m learning, as I contemplate all of the things I have to move and decide whether to keep and clean, that ownership is one thing, but maintenance of stuff is a different issue. Maybe this is a thing other people learn when they are much younger. Addict. Depressed. Brain issues. Bear with me. I understand that cars involve maintenance costs; so do pets and children. And houses in general require upkeep that isn’t associated with other living situations. I knew relatively early on that I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the costs of having a kid – even if I could make it work financially, there are no days off in bed when you’re a parent. I knew I’d made the right decision when a friend told me that for him, parenting made the highs higher and the lows lower. I can’t afford any lower lows.

So I don’t have kids, because on my own, I can’t afford them. I have a 15-year-old car that’s paid for, but also requires the occasional costly repair. It’s easier for me to coax occasional lump sums than a new monthly payment out of my budget, so I hold on to the car and maintain it to the best of my ability. I have a lot of books, which are pretty self-sufficient once they’re shelved, and theoretically it’s easy to wipe the dust from a bookshelf, unless you are a person who has so much stuff some of it gets propped up in front of the books. See if you can guess if I am that kind of person. (Spoiler: I am.)

[bishiglomper]

Well. For not even functioning until about 1pm, I think I did pretty good...

Sissy is lagging though. There's stuff only she can do... Like we have a porch full of garbage that needs a trip to the dump. But poor sissy is burnt out and has migraines..

I vacuumed the whole living room. Just gotta re-sweep the kitchen and dining room and the whole floor will be done!

I tidied up the basement and vacuumed that too! There's a wall of like 6 garbage bags of dirty clothes but they're tidy...

Vacuuming took forever because I had to sweep a lot. All around edges. Also the vacuum kept clogging. Sigh.

I put the table full of dishes my sister did yesterday away. Then I washed everything in the sink. Which was half a table. Wiped the counters and stuff. Scrubbed the stove! I gotta get oven cleaner....

Sissy organized the attic so I get to shove a bunch of bags in there. If I can get them upstairs without dying..

Then tomorrow I get to clean the hallway! And if mom is done with her clothes I just gotta vacuum my room. The hallway is basically just vacuuming around the litterbox.

After thooose... I think the only thing left is to tidy the porch and the bathroom. And clean the oven.

We done good.

Owning a cat: An honest review

The other day, someone found my blog by searching for “owning a cat: honest review”.

I’m guessing google sent them to my blog because I have a Dinnerly post that has the phrase “an honest review” in the title.

I posted a screenshot of this search phrase on my Instagram because I thought it was funny, but several readers said that they would actually really appreciate a review post about owning a cat!

And I realized that when I was trying to decide if I wanted to own a cat, I would have loved to read an honest review of cat ownership.

Especially from someone who had a lot of hesitation about the idea.

So, here we are.

I’m an unlikely cat owner

I never in a million years anticipated that I would have a cat walking around my house.

(Please read the second paragraph in this post for embarrassing proof!)

I didn’t grow up with cats, for one thing.

And I’ve never been a super animal-crazy person.

Also, I like things to be clean and neat.

To wit, when I first met Mr. FG, I told him that I did not ever, ever want to have a dog. That was a non-negotiable deal breaker to me; if you want a dog, then I am not the girl for you.

PERIOD.

I didn’t have such strong feelings about cats, but I certainly did not anticipate owning one.

I previously said yes to caged pets

I might not be a huge animal lover, but 4/4 of my kids are.

So in the past, I’ve said yes to a number of caged pets.

We’ve had

fish

many hamsters

a guinea pig

lizards

And I had even consented to a tarantula (luckily, we ended up with a second lizard instead. Whew.)

However, Lisey really, really likes cats, and she really, really wanted to adopt one.

I was scared. And nervous. So many unknowns!

Things that scared me about cat ownership

Since I’d never owned an un-caged pet before, I had a lot of concerns.

I was worried that:

the cat would scratch our house up

the litter would smell up the house

cat hair would be everywhere

cat paraphernalia would take up a lot of space

it would be a lot of work to take care of a cat

we’d have to go to the vet a lot

a cat would be expensive

owning a cat would just be very inconvenient

How have my worries panned out?

Well, I am happy to say that this has been way, way easier than I anticipated.

And in many ways, a cat is less work and less mess than a guinea pig (or even a hamster).

I was surprised!

The Scratching

Our cat was 7 years old when we adopted her, so she was already long past the super scratchy kitten phase.

I was worried she would scratch our leather furniture, but she hasn’t. She does scratch our doormats, but I don’t really care about that.

And when we first got her and she slept in Lisey’s room, she would scratch at the door trim when she wanted to be let in.

But now that she sleeps by herself, she doesn’t scratch at the doors anymore.

Which means it is probably safe for me to sand and paint this door trim!

The Smell

I have been pleasantly surprised at how not smelly the cat has been.

We use Arm and Hammer Slide litter, and it is seriously good! As long as we scoop it every other day, the smell is very minimal.

This litter is more expensive than some, but it’s worth it in my book.

And the cat herself really does not smell.

(Unlike a dog. Ha.)

I really cannot emphasize enough how good this cat litter is. If smell is a problem, you really need to give this brand a try!

Cat Hair

Shedding probably varies by breed, but it has not been bad with ours.

Sonia keeps up on brushing her, which removes a lot of the hair. And the regular sweeping/vacuuming we do manages the rest of it.

Basically, we haven’t had to add more cleaning than we were doing before.

Space Issues

Since the cat has free roam of the house (obviously!), we don’t need a cage. So that’s a plus.

A litter container and a feeding station take up a lot less space than a big guinea pig cage.

Amount of Work

I think cats are less work than guinea pigs, mainly because scooping a litterbox is so much less work than changing bedding in a cage.

The Vet

We haven’t had to take our cat to the vet much at all; mainly we’ve taken her in for nail trimming.

Zoe and I did have one successful nail trimming session with her, but since then, we’ve just had unsuccessful attempts. So, we’ve decided to just pay the $15 every few months to get her nails trimmed.

At the vet, she’s so scared, she’s very subdued and she lets them trim her without complaint.

At home, she gets a little spicy when we try.

The Expense

Adopting our cat was free through the county animal shelter, so $0 there.

Vet costs have been minimal, as I mentioned.

We get free rabies shots through the animal shelter, so that’s another $0.

We get our litter and food delivered through Chewy, and I’d say that runs us about $100/year.

And a few times a year, we need to pay $15 to have her nails clipped.

Overall I’d say this is pretty affordable.

Of course, I imagine that as she gets older, we will have some more expenses, but for now it’s not bad at all.

The good parts of owning a cat

I addressed my worries already, so I figured I should talk about the upsides of owning a cat.

She makes my girls very happy

This is the largest upside of cat ownership by far. The girls just adore the cat, and since they are happy, I’m happy.

I like to do things that bring joy to my kids!

She’s a very social cat

I know some cats are loners, but our cat loves to be near people. She’s very attention-starved in the morning just from us sleeping all night with our doors shut.

So, she’s fun to have around because she wants to be petted and scratched.

She makes us laugh

She does funny things like making chirping sounds at birds, running around scared at nothing, batting at bookmark ribbons, and licking drink condensation.

She’s really sweet when someone is sick or sad

I don’t know exactly how she seems to know this, but she will often choose to go sit with someone who is not feeling well.

For instance, she rarely sits on Lisey’s bed during the day, but after Lisey had her wisdom teeth out, the cat stayed right beside her in bed for several days.

I don’t know if it’s just happenstance, but it IS very sweet.

In conclusion:

I’m really glad that I said yes to Lisey wanting a cat.

The joy she’s brought to our family has been worth the small amount of inconvenience.

That said, I am still holding firm on the No Dog policy. A girl has to draw a line somewhere.

How do you feel about cats?

[copperbadge]

Forgive me if you've already written about this, but you seem to have your life together so I'm asking: how do you keep house? All the online resources seem to assume I'm a stay at home mom-- I live with myself and my cat, and work full time. How do you keep up with the messes created by yourself and the cryptids? How do you keep up with the messes that seem to just spawn?

Oh, man, such a good question. I feel like part of the answer is…I don’t? I mean I do, obviously I don’t live in rank filth, but I don’t keep as clean a house as say, my mother, or even some of my friends. 

I try to set up systems to prevent certain types of mess, which helps – I try never to leave something for later if it can be dealt with in the course of the moment, which can be wearying so not everyone’s going to handle that well. But for example, laundry – when I do it, I do every part of it. Not every article of clothing (though that too) but I stand in the laundry room and fold it there, even though my condo is only a short elevator ride away, because I know I a) fold better standing up and b) am more likely to just dump it on my bed and not fold it if I go back to my condo. So I fold all my laundry and then I take it home, and then it’s super easy to put it away! (I also have arranged my life so that putting it away is easy – the shirts go on hangers, everything else goes on open shelves or, in the case of socks, in an open box by the door). 

I don’t do the dishes every day. Why should I? I’m one human, and I don’t like having wet hands or sweaty glove hands. So when I’m done with a dish I put it in the sink and run water into it to soak, and at the end of the week I wash them all. Is it a little gross? Probably. But as long as I stay on top of it within reason, I only have to do dishes once a week and I don’t have to worry about pests. 

I vacuum when I vacuum. Sometimes my floor is not the cleanest, but what am I doing on my floor? Only walking. Hell, in the living room there’s a significant amount of floor space dedicated to being covered in loose catnip. I sweep it up if friends are coming over but otherwise that’s just The Catnip Area. It’s dry and smells nice, so why not?   

One good tip I have for Cryptid Mess in re: the litterbox is to find a cheap foam yoga mat and put it under the litterbox. It catches a lot of the litter. I do keep a dustpan and a little hand sweeper in the bathroom to sweep up the litter it doesn’t catch – I do that every evening, because if I don’t the cats get into the box and play drum solos on it all night long. I have a small trash bin near the box that all the poop and swept-up litter goes into and I empty that once a week when it gets full. 

I have never dusted once in my whole life. Obviously this is untenable if you have particulate sensitivities of some kind but I don’t, so when company is coming I do a quick vacuum and then wipe down anything that looks dusty and likely to shed it, and otherwise I am okay with a bit of dust. 

I also buy convenience items that make it easier to clean or to not-clean. I have a three-bin, wheeled cart for laundry so everything gets sorted as I take it off (trousers, socks-undies, shirts; linens always go in with socks-undies because it’s usually the smallest load) and it’s easy to get the bins to the laundry room. I have an Omega Paw litterbox so I never actually have to scoop it, just clean and refill it on occasion. All of my windowsills where the cats like to lie are covered in fabric so that the shed onto that and it traps it a bit, and then I wash those occasionally (every blanket I own is still covered in cat hair, but whatever, the hair mostly sticks to the  blanket). 

But these are all kind of very specific examples that illustrate a larger point I make a lot when it comes to living your life as a grownup: these are things that work for me because they work with the way my mind works. What is most important is to find a system that works for you. I often advise people to think about what conditions would enable them to do better at something they’d like to do better at, and then find a way to implement those conditions. Like I used to not go running as often because I hated putting socks on in the morning. So I found a pair of shoes that didn’t require socks to run in. Relatedly, my socks were getting everywhere when I kept them on a shelf with the rest of my clothes, so I put them in a drawer in my kitchen, near the door where I kept my shoes, and they stayed not only more organized but out if sight. When I put the mail on a counter after coming home, I forget it exists, so instead I open it before I go in the door, sort it in my hand into “important” and “garbage”, and put the important mail directly into my work bag, so that the following morning when I unpack my bag at work, I’ll see it and have the mental capacity to deal with it. I have an open paper bag next to my sofa that is only “dry” trash (tissues, paper, reciepts) and the garbage mail goes directly into that so I don’t even have to lift a trash lid to get rid of it. 

When I do feel like the level of ick is getting too high in my home, I set aside a weekend day to deal with it. And I spend the whole day cleaning – but I spend maybe 40% of it cleaning and the other 60% resting and rewarding myself. I clean one room at a time because that’s easiest for me, and I tend to push all the mess into one room and do that one last – so anything that shouldn’t be in the kitchen gets removed to the dining room table, ditto junk in the bedroom, and then I deal with the table all at once so that it’s its own task rather than ten thousand tiny distracting ones. Inbetween rooms I watch a movie or make myself a snack or play with the Cryptids. 

But I also know people – one of my new coworkers for example – who have totally different systems. He goes home on Friday night, FRIDAY NIGHT, when all I want to do is fucking sleep! and he cleans his WHOLE TWO BEDROOM TWO STOREY HOUSE! He starts in the room furthest from the kitchen upstairs and cleans his way down and into the kitchen. I could never. But that’s the ONLY way he can clean, he’s physically incapable of cleaning anything as he goes. So his wife does the little mess-cleans, like mid-week dishes or picking up clothing that has gone astray, on the understanding that she doesn’t have to help with the Friday Night Deep Clean Of Horror. I have other friends who have wholly different ideas of what “clean kitchen” means – for one it means there’s no messy dishes in the sink, for the other it means the counters are clear and wiped down – so they each tackle their half of the “clean” conception, one clears the counters and the other does the dishes, rather than taking turns cleaning the “whole” kitchen. They had to vocalize this to each other before they could strike that deal, though. And when you live alone, sometimes you aren’t aware of how you conceptualize things because you’re never expressing that to someone else. 

So I think it’s super important to talk to yourself, actually. To ask yourself, what does clean mean to you, and what do you just not give a shit about? Then ask yourself, what would make it easier for me to address the parts I really care about? And then arrange your home around that. 

I hope this helps! Remember, learning this kind of shit is a process, and it takes time and energy and self-reflection. You don’t have to become Martha Stewart tomorrow – you can take the time you need to build up little insights and habits slowly. Good luck!
