I’m so happy that just over a week before his big day I changed my mind and decided to throw together a little party for him. It turned out to be a great day and we had a lot of fun with our little family and friends!

This ain’t one of those posts. I am not one of those women.

6 Tips for Successfully Using Poshmark to Downsize
Much of what you read when it comes to decluttering will tell you to just call it a lesson. The money is already spent and you now know to think things through a little bit better before you make another purchase.
Agreed. But, I also believe it can be worth it to see if someone out there is willing to pay for it.
Poshmark is a fantastic tool for downsizing as well as earning a little bit of income on the side.
