| My little organization tip - "put it back where you found it so we can find it next time we need it". Doesn't matter what "IT" is. |

the particular book i'm referring to .. and oh yesss .. you can clutter your bookshelves with tons of ORGANIZATION BOOKS too i've found! ... but anyhoo .. it's called: ONE-minute organizer Plain and Simple .. 500 tiops for getting your life in order .. . by Donna Smallin. A few of her tips:
CONSISTENCY is the KEY!
You don't have to stop everything to get organized. You just have to START. Make organizing a part of your daily life.
DO IT FIRST. DO IT FAST.

reading this book .. i realize that for ME 'clutter' surely isn't my huge collections of 'things' that i love! some might see that as 'clutter' .. but oh my .. it all gives me such joy .. and 'clean lines' give me the jitters! My STUFF that i love makes me feel a connection to the people who came before me and enjoyed these things. it's the 'paper' and excess 'supplies' and sometimes 'duplicates' of what i have and the 'wonderfuls' that no longer fit in these little cabins that i want to 'organize' and 'sell/gift' that is MY 'clutter'. What's YOURS?

time = organization That is what I've been working on. I am slightly ADD or prone to symptoms of it. I have to have order and I have a semi-anal personality. hehe. I can organize anyone and anything. When I was under 2 we moved to town (see I was a country girl for 1 year) and i unpacked stuff and put all the kitchen items together and all the bedroom items together etc. It's in me and the Virgo tendency :)
I love Flylady. I also like looking for free tips on the net. The everything has a home is the way to go. They taught us that in Montessori school.

oh if there were truly a book that would help me.
i am one of those house "cleaners" that makes a big mess when i am cleaning and if i stop before i am finished it looks like a bomb went off.
anywho, a couple of months a go i found a book on speed cleaning. i think it has really helped. my house doesnt really look clean, but i do it a lot faster!
i have found that a home is easier to keep clean when it isnt so cluttered, but my oh my which treasure can i get rid of?
once again, frannie you have given us an interesting post. i am also enjoying the emails, thanks for adding me back to the list.
love
fran
