Get Organized Now!

Lillian, EO is the Easy Organizer that Maria sells on her site "Get Organized Now"

I jot down anything and everything no matter how improbable in a small notebook that is there with me almost at all times....

if not then I use my cellphone's notes or tasks application n then jot it down in the notebook when I get it.

A copy of this is made in my Google Calendar or Google Notebook... Read More

That makes me have both a hardcopy and a softcopy of my lists so I can refer to them almost anytime...anywhere

Absolutely right!!!!

well, I organized my sock drawer

I really like this website i have learned so much about organizing!! thanks for the information!!

Delegating a to-do list helps when you ask family members what they feel like they can do to help you. And when they can complete the task. Asking for help is sometimes better than telling...especially if there is a reward at the end.

I made a list of all the daily, then weekly and monthly chores and allotted times to them. Everyone can initial what they get done and total the points earning money for them. It's worked most weeks for everyone except dh. The guilt helps when you have 300 minutes and they have 5. I also try to have someone over once a week to stay motivated to not let they house become a sty. Three kids home all the time isn't conducive to a perfect home. :)

I love to organize and even read books on this but I constantly organize, clean and then mess up.

I do exactly the same.....

Still organizing my reading room. Should have been done 7 weeks ago.

If not, how do I get to see those little "pink" elephants dancing around. They'll be colorless I guess.

Jen,
You made me laugh

How did you know I couldn't see my desk?? Can you see it thru the computer? ha ha. Guess it's time. :-)

Thanks maria great hint

All I can say is thank goodness for the "couponizer" -- it is awesome!

Finally trying to clear out my email inbox! Big task, but I know I'll feel better when it isn't quite so cluttered. I save things there too long. Bad habit. I will try to do better in the future. Love the getorganizednow.com website and wkly newsletter. Great tips.

I don't know how this got in here, but since it did - getorganizednow.com is a good site - You can get a weekly newsletter written by a woman from Watertown, WI. There's good info on it re organizing your house, life, etc. Pretty good, sometimes repetitive. I'm trying to use bits 'n pieces from it in my never-ending (never achieved) quest to be organized. She has some things to sell, but you can read the site without buying anything.

Janice, I linked this to my FB since I've been a getorganizednow fan for years. Lots of good tips to use whenever I get inspired!

All my Thanksgiving cards were done in August, Christmas cards were done by September and all decorations are orgainzed and in one place! I am planning for a quiet, peaceful holiday season (well, as peaceful as it gets with 3 little ones :)
