Show notes: Do you have a room that could really use a refresh? Possibly all it would take is a good decluttering and a coat of fresh paint?

In this episode, we reveal our third top-secret topic that we are diving into for the next few months.   This is an issue that we both have a love/hate relationship with. It's something we wake up to face every morning, and go to bed with every night. It's something that we'll be working on, probably, every day for the rest of our lives. We're determined to figure out how to do it efficiently, and do it . . . can we use the word "brilliantly"?? YES. We can, and we shall! (May we reach for the stars in this area? Why the heck not??)   Tune in to this week's episode of The Clever House ..read more

Frankly, we do. We stink at self care. We own it today, and we wonder aloud how we can work so hard to take care of our families and fail so miserably in caring for our own selves in this episode of Clever Housewives.   It's not so clever, after all, to work so hard at caring for your family, home, and business that you collapse in an exhausted, quivering heap at the end of each day! There's got to be a better way.   We discuss how we might do a better job of caring for our own selves, and what might be behind our self-care denial.   Links from the show:   Amy's Pineapple P ..read more
