EP233 How to Decide What NOT to Buy/Keep/Do

Show Notes:

WELCOME BACK! After our three-month break, this is the beginning of season 14! It’s also the beginning of another school year and the beginning of Fall (sorta, it’s still 100 degrees in FL, but whatevs). For moms, it means a busy season with many people and things begging for our attention and time. But we can’t say yes to all of them. Today I’m sharing one filter I use pretty much every day to decide what NOT to buy, keep, or do.   

What we discussed

  • The time I taught my sweet, innocent niece to pseudo-swear
  • The question I ask to pretty much determine everything
  • Caveats to the filter
  • Caveats to the caveats
