DIY Drawer Organizers

posted on , by Summer Owens

I've been wanting to organize our kitchen drawers since we moved in. I found some organizers at thrift stores that worked as a temporary solution but they were very inefficient.

Down Memory Lane - Delusion, a poem

posted on , by Summer Owens

Image Credit: Pixabay.com Today, in the process of organizing and decluttering my home, I went through a box filled with notes and cards from my past. Many things I had forgotten rose to the surface of my memory. One of these things was mail about the publication of a poem I had written.
