Tip of the Day!

OK so I had a request for some organizing tips.. well here goes..

Spend 15 minutes on a project at a time.. that way you don't feel overwhelmed by organizing and cleaning your house.. only take out to clean what you can put away in 15 minutes... Don't dump out an entire closet if you can't put it where you want it in the time frame that you have set for yourself.

Use a timer and live by it... Set the timer for 15 minutes and work until the bell goes off. Set the timer again for another 15 minutes and put your feet up, have a cup of tea, read a magazine.
After your "break" set the timer again and focus on another task. Why overwhelm your self with housework??? Is a spotless house really worth pulling your hair out?



I'm currently looking in my recipes for my banana bread card.. check for that in a few hours! Awesome, moist and delicious... the kids will love it for sure!

I just spent my 15 minute break with you! Off to another task!

  1. Good tip!! Another tip is keep a daytimer, yes a daytimer, with all the tasks that you want to accomplish and tick them off when you have accomplished them. Don't forget to include self care in the list, it is just as important as everything else...maybe even more!
