14 day detox, spring cleaning our lives

Is this you at 3 pm?   How can you survive the  3 pm slump?  It seems that no matter how well we eat, we seem to lose sense and reason when it comes to deciding what is a healthy and not so healthy snack.

My house on the outside is clean, comfortable and organised - or so that is what it appears to be.  When you open a cupboard you have to duck for cover with the overflow of “stuff” oh and by the way avoid the garage and store room.
