A former slob cleans her house: keyrings

Here’s another organizational tip from me, your GenX older cousin/uncool aunt who hates the word “edit” being used for “houseclean.”

How long has it been since you’ve really LOOKED at your keys? Between Mom and I, we managed to eliminate seven redundant key rings and retire one very worn door opener/button pusher.

seven empty keyrings and a very worn covid-era door opener/button pusher

It took less than 10 minutes (nine of those were wrangling the rings off of the main keyring) and our keys feel ligher than air now. You can even do this while enjoying your brew of choice outside on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

    Who uses the word edit for houseclean? Clearly I am not down with the kids 🤣

      I see influencers say “let’s edit my closet” and it drives me nuts.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
