http://kayscountrycottage.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Living A Simplified Life! Sunday, February 19, 2012. What Have You Been Doing? I don’t know about everyone else, but I’ve actually been working on accomplishing my New Year’s Resolutions. The big one for me, since I’m also in the process of downsizing my house. Trying to decide what I really am willing to part with has been difficult to say the least! The one thing I have to remember is that I just won’t have the room for it all in an apartment. So how are you doing? Sunday, February 19, 2012. Quick Tip&...

Kays Country Cottage: My Computer is Fried!
http://kayscountrycottage.blogspot.com/2012/08/my-computer-is-fried.html
Living A Simplified Life! Friday, August 17, 2012. My Computer is Fried! AkaWhat do I do now? Eventually that dreaded day is going to come, like it or not, when you are going to have something happen to your computer. You will log on and get nothing but the “blue screen of death and doom and gloom” or it won’t turn on at all. Your first reaction of course is what happened? Well, it could have been a power surge that made it past your power strip. You do have one installed on your unit right? Within just ...

Living A Simplified Life! Friday, November 11, 2011. An American Made Christmas. At this time of year, many churches and cities will have craft fairs where local artisans will have their wares for sale. You can probably do all of your Christmas shopping right there and not have to run all over town shopping. You can find almost any type of gift available for the men, women and children on your list. How about gift certificates that lets someone you love be pampered for the day? For someone who doesn't ha...

Living A Simplified Life! Sunday, August 21, 2011. Recycling 2lb Coffee Cans. What could you do with a 2 lb coffee can? That is besides just throw it in the dumpster! After removing the labels to where you have just silver can you try doing some of the following:. 1 Make an outdoor patio candle: Poke holes about ½ down from the top rim. Affix a hanger to the top rim by punching two holes, inserting a wire hanger (a wire coat hanger works great, use the hook to hang from a nail). 6 Hardware storage: Do yo...

Kays Country Cottage: Christmas Crafts
http://kayscountrycottage.blogspot.com/p/christmas-crafts.html
Living A Simplified Life! I like to give a special Christmas ornament to each of my grand children every year. This is a great tradition to start with your children or grandchildren. That way, when they get grown up and leave home, you can pack up their personal ornaments and they can have them and all the memories that are attached to them to put on their very own first Christmas tree. Take clear ball ornaments, and fill them with metallic shred and then write the child's name and perhaps the year on th...

Kays Country Cottage: January 2012
http://kayscountrycottage.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Living A Simplified Life! Tuesday, January 3, 2012. What an odd title for an article you might think until you realize that KISS stands for Keep It Simple Silly (I don't like the other word "stupid" because of it's negative connotations). We are all making our New Year's Resolutions and many will have a list as long as your arm! Do you really think with that many you will even be able to accomplish all of them? Why not just make just a couple instead so that you know you can actually fulfill those goals.

Kays Country Cottage: September 2011
http://kayscountrycottage.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Living A Simplified Life! Wednesday, September 21, 2011. Big Changes Are Coming! What a challenge I am facing. Downsizing a 1250 sq ft home with 14 years of accumulated “stuff” to fit into an approximately 600 sq ft apartment. No easy chore but one that has to be done. Getting rid of things and clearing out things has been good for the soul. I’ve been able to send some things off to people who can really use certain items and others have been donated to my favorite charity, The Salvation Army. I do need ...
