Hi! I recently found your YouTube channel and find it to be so full of great advice! I would love my 20’s daughters to listen( and they are interested!). What would you suggest they begin with? Also, is there a place to get all the pamphlet videos in a playlist in order? Thank you!
Hello! Please forgive me for not seeing your message in a timely manner. I hope you get this answer! I appreciate your kind words :) To receive the videos in order, go to my YouTube channel @BeautifulHomemaking and look for "playlists."
Then either start with FW1.1 or you can start with "Secrets of Fascinating Womanhood." Even though that is a book for married women, single women enjoy it as well, looking to the future. Thank you for asking!
Last year I read a very interesting book by Cassandra Aarssen called The Clutter Connection, How Your Personality Type Determines Why You Organize the Way You Do. The first time I took her test was on her website, Clutterbug.me , I came out as a “Butterfly.” But when I read her mini online book detailing the four different organizing styles that are based on your personality, I thought I was a Bee who coveted being a Cricket! (See her website for a quick explanation of the four Clutter Bugs.) I bought this book since it goes into depth on the four areas, with color pictures, and I wanted to know more. I was skeptical of her test and felt that the questions weren’t clear enough, so I took the test several times on different days, and again after reading each of the four sections of her book. I felt that on many of the questions I could answer “Yes” to 3 out of the 4 scenarios. So one time I did this on all the questions, and then added up my score that way.

Everything was on schedule! Let me share with you the four steps I took to move from Christmas Chaos to Christmas Calm : 1) Write up, then type up, your Christmas Countdown . This is what MY list looks like: Christmas Countdown January Buy Christmas cards for next year (I do actual Christmas cards, not photo cards). Go to post office and buy Christmas stamps (I did this today, and saved myself the postage increase happening Jan. 21, 2018) Shop online for after-Christmas sales - Christmas themed items for next Christmas (it can be gifts, partyware, decor, wrapping paper, etc.) Place large empty box or Christmas bag into closet for gifts bought throughout the year, with post-it note for who it is for, or you will forget! Type up Christmas card list and

I had started a list of all I did in this post, but it was soooo long, that I eventually took the 240+ steps I took while living on one income and becoming debt-free, all while homeschooling our child, and expounded on them in my book How to Thrive on One Income . The blessings of living on one income are so worth the effort! Know that you must be agreed that you being home is more important than a higher income. If your husband is resentful you will encounter problems (or if you really want to work, then you will sabotage yourself at home). You can have a trial time as well – he might not believe you can cut expenses. But you can! Joni McCoy of MiserlyMoms.com has a wonderful audio tape telling her story that is incredibly inspiring. You must know WHY it is important for you to be home. Finding Your Way Home , which I talk about in its own post ( here ), is an excellent resource. The
