I ran across some really good information today about organizing. I know...I'm definitely not an organizer - I'm a magnificent stacker- but never an organizer. Anyone who knows me, knows my bad habit of getting really excited about a project or idea and only doing it halfway, or for just a short time. ADD as an adult I guess... Anyway, here is a cool link:
Clothes Purging: How to
I went into my closet to pick out my clothes to wear today and got rid of 7 shirts immediately. Into the donate bag they went. I know it's only 7 shirts, but they're 7 of the ones I swore 2 years ago I would wear again. Oh well.
The laundry monster is constantly rearing its ugly head at our house. Sometimes I swear there must be 10 people living in the house with me (or else the neighbors dropped off their dirty laundry at our house). Where does it all come from? You'd think each of us wore 3 outfits daily! Here is something that I already do that is really helpful. I've never claimed to be good at laundry, in fact, I'm really horrible at it, but I was pleasantly surprised to see an organizer suggest the same tip that I've been doing for years.
