Simplicity is in the form of shutting down the TV and reading instead. Or sleeping in sometimes and keeping our to do list for a day down to 6 items or less...

Simplicity, with twin preschool boys? Ayayayaya. Of course, it starts with setting our their clothes for school and packing their lunches the night before. Later in the day, simplicity would be popping in some easy, but not crap-ridden, ready-made cooked bits into the oven for mom-and-kids snack. Thank you for getting the word out. In the current economy, I've given up organic, but I do read labels. I'll be checking out the new Pillsbury cookies! (curious what the "oil" is...why not butter?)
ReplyDeleteI usually buy my lunches for the week in advance.

ReplyDeleteI am all about simplicity. I can't stand chaos and confusion. I have a three-year-old, a two-year-old, and a one-year-old, and I stay at home with them. Our motto is "take it easy" because that whole driven, ambitious way of doing things turns me off. I equate happiness with inner peace, so I try to teach my kids to follow their inner voice instead of following the dictates of society.

I'm a big one for simpicity of lifestyle!! I can't stand feeling unorganized, chaotic and out of control. I think one of my most important ways to add simplicity to my life is avoiding or keeping under control CLUTTER - whether it is material clutter, or activity clutter (too many obligations), etc.
Everyday I just kind of step back, look things over, and pare things down where I need to. It's so easy to become way overwhelmed with our busy, stressful modern life and I find if I keep my home and obligations tidy, then I feel better :)

ReplyDeleteSimplicity is key in my world - no iron clothing, do the bulk of my cooking in one day for the week so all I have to do is throw it in the oven, crock pot, etc., clean as I go so the house stays presentable...
ReplyDeleteI've added simplicity to my life by saying no.
ReplyDeleteI use a lot of pre-packaged foods from the dollar store - makes quick meals a snap!!

ReplyDeletei'd be lying if i said i did, everything is complicated
ReplyDeleteI add simplicty by delegating. No one person can do everything, so each of my kids has their own responsibilities and we all reap the benefits.
ReplyDeleteI keep it simple by sticking to a routine. Every day is like the rest and that keeps my kids on track and everything moving smoothly. It maybe boring but it is also peaceful and efficient
ReplyDeleteBy using post-it notes so I wont forget important stuff or get confused.

ReplyDeleteI add "simplicty" to my daily life by doing most, if not all, of my shopping and errands between work and home. That way I'm not driving hither and yon and back again. I do my banking, dry cleaning, etc. with businesses on or near my route -- it makes it so much easier!
ReplyDeleteI add simplicity by doing something right as I think about it instead of adding it to a 'To Do' list. It saves a lot of time and worry about gettting it done.

ReplyDeleteStop and breathe. Nothing more
ReplyDeleteTo bring simplicity to my life I cook for two days at one time. On one day I will make grilled chicken breasts and the next day we have a grilled chicken salad. Hamburgers one night become spaghettin the next. It saves me so much time and it makes deciding the next day easier.
ReplyDeleteSimplicity is only making one dinner and being ok with my kids perhaps only eating cheesy carrots and a slice of melon off of their plates!

I try to simplify my life by being more efficient and organized. For example, when I have to dice veggies for a dish, I always dice more than I need and freeze the extras. That way, when I need diced veggies again, I just pull them out the freezer. I also take the initial time to organize my bathroom, bedroom, and laundry room. The initial time it takes to do this is worth the time saved in looking for everyday items!
