For the past 2 years, I've written a 31 days series during the month of October. I wasn't planning to participate this year, but I started seeing people talking about their topics and somehow, I decided to give it a try again.
Several months ago, I posted a little bit about our house. I'll get into more specifics and details over the next month, but our house is fairly small. I realize that the size of a home is definitely relative and depends on lots of factors like the number of people in the home. We have a family of 3, so we are probably a bit more comfortable in our smaller home than a family of 5 or 6 would be. I also know people live in lots smaller spaces than we do, too.
So what will I be writing about over the next month? I have some general ideas of what I'd like to write about including how we ended up in this house, when and why we decided to stay, the financial considerations, a house tour, and how we address different challenges living in a smaller space. I'm also hoping to tackle a couple of "problem" areas in the house as I focus on our home in October. I will continue to post book reviews and occasional outfit posts, too.
I would love to have you read along during this series, and if you are writing a 31 days series, please leave me a comment so I can check it out!

31 Days of Starting Over

This is a great topic and I can't wait to read more. My husband and I are (almost) empty nesters and have downsized recently from a 3,500 square foot home to a 1600 sq. ft. condo. It's been wonderful. I've been forced to simplify and purge. I look forward to your thoughts.
I'm taking the 31 day challenge as well and would love you to take a look if interested.
