5 Ways To Simplify Your Life

This post brought to you by Scott Tube-Free. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Simply Clarke.

5 Ways To Simplify Your LifeIn honor of National Simplify Your Life Week, August 2nd – 8th, today I am writing about 5 Ways To Simplify Your Life.

 

1. Have A Routine

Routines are a great way to simplify your life. By having the same routine in the mornings and at night, it can help give your family a stable base for the rest of the day. For example, I wake up at the same time every morning, get ready and then wake Brooke up to eat and get her ready. After that, I take her to daycare and then go to work. At night, I give her a bath after her 6:30 feeding, then she goes to bed after her 9:30 feeding. By doing the same thing almost every day, it makes things go easier.

2. Eliminate Stress

In our busy world, it is easy to have different “events” every night of the week. Prioritize things and clean out your schedule. Eliminate things that bring unnecessary stress to your week. I know that some weeks being busy is inevitable, but I like to make sure we don’t pack too many things into our week. I have noticed that the weeks we are so busy, Brooke seems to be fussier and overly tired like us. By prioritizing, it keeps us not as tired and in a better mood.

 

3. Put away technology

I said it. Technology takes up so much of our time and life. Put away your phones and turn off your tv’s and enjoy a night as a family or even just dinner at the dinner table. Taking out the distractions will give you a chance to really talk and enjoy each other.

4. Use Scott Tube-Free Bath Tissue

Yep, I said it. Scott Tube-Free Bath Tissue is a simple new idea that will have a great impact on the environment, if households consciously switch to this quick and easy brand. It eliminates the toilet paper tube, thus helping diminish the 17 billion toilet paper rolls that are used annually. Scott Tube-Free works the exact same way as a regular toilet paper roll, but without the wasteful core! Every part of Scott Tube-Free is usable. Check out this Scott Man on the Street video where the product is demonstrated. You can buy Scott Tube-Free at your local Walmart like me or use this Local Retailer Locator to see where to find them. Also, make sure to use this Scott Coupon.

5. Declutter and Clean

Take the time to go through your closets and clean out your old things, donate them if possible or throw away. You don’t need that dress from 10 years ago or that set of golf clubs your husband never uses. Even have a garage sale if you would like with all your old things. Declutter, and then give your house a good clean!

  • There’s a reason I have these shorts in 5 colors❤️❤️❤️… they are so good! I love that one pocket zips and the fit is really flattering.

I always reach for these when I’m going for a walk or run.

  • #AD I’ve been needing to de-clutter and re-organize my bathroom so badly, so I took advantage of the @HomeDepot Winter Bath Savings Event and got a few things to help me out!

They are offering up to 40% off on select Bath items. I just love how my new under cabinet organizers transformed the space and my drawer organizers are a game changer. 

Then, my scallop basket over the toilet was the perfect addition to the space. Baskets are so great for organizing - they’re stylish yet functional.

It’s a great time to re-organize or upgrade your bathroom. There’s so many great items in the savings event - faucets, toilets, vanities.. etc. Check it out! #HomeDepotCreator #THDBathUpgrades
  • Add these to your cart ASAP! ❤️ Every time I’ve worn these people have stopped me and asked where they’re from. They are so cute, sell out risk for sure.

  • This Crockpot Macaroni and Cheese recipe 🧀 is the perfect side dish for Easter! It’s so easy to make and deliciously cheesy. 🐣🌷

INGREDIENTS:
6 cups of uncooked pasta
1 cup of cheddar cheese
24oz of velvetta cheese
4 cups of milk
2 cups of half and half
1/2 teaspoon of paprika
2 teaspoons of salt

Mix everything together in crockpot and cook on low for about 4 hours (until pasta is soft), stirring often! If your liquid is gone and pasta still isn’t quite done, add a little extra milk or water until done.💕
