I just watched The Minimalists, a documentary on Netflix. This is fascinating to me. I would love to have some friends join me in the Minimalism Game during the month of February, that’s only 28 days. I like the concept of Feb. 1st - 1 item – Feb 2nd – 2 items, etc.

I want to get rid of stuff, Feng Shui needs a clean, uncluttered space to be effective. It just seems to be a monumental task! What if I need it someday? What if I can't afford to buy it again? I love that dress, I am going to wear it after I lose weight? The guys that wrote the book and stared in the movie say you don’t miss anything, your life just is lighter!

Who is with me? Let’s start Feb. 1st. 2017. I will post the items I am getting rid each day and have removed from my home. Remember, it has to be out of the house by midnight each day. I think having to be accountable is going to help, so Naperville Free Cycle, Naperville Virtual Garage Sales, eBay and Craig’s List, etc... Look out! I’m getting busy!

If I follow through all month I will have cleared out 406 items. And if I keep it going through March another 496 items. WOW! I feel lighter just thinking about it. Now, if I recruit Jessica to do this with her stuff... in Feb we will have removed 812 items between us, and 992 items in March, which is a grand total of: 1,804 items out of our home! I think that would just about do it. Laurie Pawli, I’m on my way to becoming a certified Feng Shui Consultant! ☺

Who is with me? Message me or post below. Let’s make this fun. What a great way to start the New Year. The year of the FIRE ROOSTER!

A new month is approaching. Let's play a little game together...

Happy Chinese New Year!!! Many people have asked me how I got this great photo of this little guy. As most of you know Roosters are very difficult to photograph because they rarely stop moving when someone is around. For months I had been visiting farms and places that would have a Rooster with no luck. My daughter kept asking, “Mom, how are you going to get a Rooster photo for your website?” I would say, “I don’t know, but I will.”

In Dec. my daughter and I vacationed in Florida for her winter break. We stayed with friends in Boynton Beach. On our way home from the beach Jessica yelled, “Mom, there is a Rooster in that yard.” She was right, in the neighborhood of my friends’ home, there was a Rooster running around the front yard of a home in her neighborhood. I yelled, “Stop the car.” My friends’ mother stopped the car, I told her I would explain later. I only had my cell phone with me so it was difficult to get close to the Rooster, and his movements were sporadic, so it was difficult to get him in focus. He was all over the yard, in the bushes around the side of the house and kept a large distance from me to get a nice portrait of him. I came back to the car disappointed, and not sure how I would get a nice photo of him before the New Year.

My daughter said, “Don’t worry Mom, we have 9 more days here. You have time to get a nice picture of him.” My friends’ Mom said, “I’ve lived here for 16 years, and that is the third time I have seen him. I don’t know if you will see him again before you leave.” Three days later, on New Year’s Eve driving back from the beach, Jessica saw the Rooster again. My friend stopped the car and I got out, I grabbed my camera and walked towards the Rooster. He looked at me and started running around again. I slowed down and started talking to him, telling him that he was going to be the Rooster of the Chinese New Year 2017 - the Fire Rooster. I told him that he was handsome and had gorgeous colored feathers. He slowed down and allowed me to get closer to him and with one foot on the ground and the other one ready to run... He stayed, posed and allowed me to get plenty of images of him before he walked away. It was amazing! As I walked back to the car my daughter and friends asked, “Well, did you get it?” With a big smile on my face, I said, “Yes!” And here he is...

If you would like to purchase a photo of him, message me and I will give you prices. Happy New Year! Wishing you all joy, abundance, and success during this year of the Fire Rooster!

In early October of last year, Naperville photographer, Alix Haisha, was taking her kids to see the Great Chicago Fire Festival; however, the turnout was so large, she never got a chance to see the spectacular display. Instead, she drove around the city, and was moved to find everything lit up in pi…

As you all know, I recently launched my website... For the past several months, I've ALSO been working on a new YouTube show...! In brief, is here to teach the basics, tips, and adjustments for us to Feng Shui our own spaces.

My team and I filmed about half of 4 episodes before we realized how good it could be, and that we'd need some additional funds. Now, our Kickstarter campaign has officially launched!

Between the 4 of us on my team, we have 29 days to raise our $12,500 goal. If we raise at least 30% within the first week, we are more apt to being funded by everyone in the Kickstarter community. So we're sending this out to all of our connections!

With your support (anything from $5 to $5K), not only will you make our show a reality, but you can receive everything from Feng Shui consultations to my photography at a fraction of the cost! The generosity runs both ways: check out all the rewards you can receive that get better at every level... I'd love your support - even if you can only share this with a friend!

Thank you, in advance, for all of your contributions! Can't wait to keep you posted.
