Spring Cleaning & Home Maintenance: What You Might Be Forgetting!


Ready for a Spring Reset?

Spring is finally here, and that means it’s time to throw open the windows, shake off the winter dust, and give our homes a fresh start! But let’s be real—spring cleaning can feel overwhelming. (Especially when you realize you’ve been avoiding that one closet since last year... oops.)

The good news? You don’t have to do it all at once. This month, I’m sharing a simple approach to spring cleaning and home maintenance—focusing on the most overlooked tasks that make a big impact. Think air vents, baseboards, and that mystery drawer we all pretend doesn’t exist. 😉

Because I love you...

And to make it even easier, I’ve put together a free Home Maintenance Checklist to help you tackle those essential seasonal tasks before they turn into costly headaches.

Behind the Scenes

Building off of my mission to step into 2025 confidently, I am showing up in real time to chat every Thursday at 2 pm CST on YouTube!

You may also see me ATTEMPTING to include more shorts on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok! Boy do I feel too old, yes, but I am working on it.

Life Lately

Whoa! Life has been a complete rollercoaster. Do you ever think "how am I not locked up?"

I don't mean like behind bars but more like a straight jacket.

February has proven to be a true pain in my buttocks. First of all, our family business is still SLOWLY coming along and we had to face the harsh reality of layoffs combined with me going back to work. YIKES!

After many bumps in the road, we have settled on me officially coming onboard to manage the books, marketing, and anything else my hubby tosses my way since we cannot continue shopping those out. It cuts his budget down greatly and I am happy to help.

This month I have switched things up a bit. I am reading more and taking better care of my skin!

What makes crafting an unlikely choice for me? The short answer is, I'm legally blind. While there are multiple facets to my visual impairment, the biggest obstacle in my craft room is that I'm colorblind. Intrigued? Join me on my crafty venture! The best way for us to keep in touch is for you to join my e-mail list. I’ll send you a newsletter about every 2 weeks (I promise not to flood your inbox!) detailing what I’ve been working on, upcoming shows, any sales promotions, and asking for input.

Coming Up

Going into March, my focus is tackling some home maintenance tasks off of my seasonal list (don't forget to download it). We will also be talking Spring Cleaning on YouTube and looking for ways to save time and money as we build our family business.

Calling all the misfits, the hot-mess moms, anyone who just doesn't feel like they know how to keep up. You are NOT alone! In spite of all of those Instagram posts and videos about matching, color coded refrigerators and closets, the majority of the world struggles to manage their homes. When I hit rock bottom and felt like a total failure, I finally started to search for simple solutions and routines that worked for my crazy ADHD brain...and now I am opening up about the good, bad, and ugly of it all with a side of sass. Don't do life alone, let's be real and face it together!

Mother's Day ideas

💌 "Messes, Mamas & Milestones" – May Newsletter from Terri I tried to make brunch last weekend to “practice” for Mother’s Day… and I wish you could’ve seen it. My daughter was stirring pancake batter with a Barbie doll (don’t ask), the dog kept trying to steal the bacon, and I accidentally grabbed paprika instead of cinnamon. So no, I will not be opening a B&B anytime soon. But I will be keeping things simple and meaningful this month—and I hope you will too. 🖼 A Little Creative Joy If you’re...
