 The movers just drove away and suddenly you have to pay the bills, arrange the furniture, and take care of the car. You told your family (parents or children) you could take care of it yourself but you might have been stretching the truth a bit.    Life is full of challenges and it doesn''t come with an instruction manual. Managing life the first time out of the house, or during the changes brought on by children entering or exiting your life, even facing the challenges of getting old, isn''t easy. While we can search the internet for any topic, we wonder if we can trust the information we find.     Most people have an "instruction guide" person in their life that won''t laugh when they ask how do I write a check, and won''t judge them when admitting they don''t know how to do laundry. I''m one of those people.   Bubbling with ideas to share, Adulting Doesn''t Have To Suck became the solution. With tips on decluttering, and buying sheets, mixed with organizing and car buying, you will find tips or tricks inside that can help you through the challenges of being an adult. Remember that sharing your knowledge with others can make everything more fun!

Adulting Doesn''t Have To Suck provided a place to pull out the information and share it with the kids in my life. Others will find a tip or trick that can help ease them through life as an adult.
