Organizing Tips

Open your mail over the recycling bin or a paper shredder.

Have any of your herbs and spices lost their fragrance?

If you can't smell them, you won't taste them.

Use a plastic rectangular basket to store catalogs or

magazines upright. They're easier to go through than
if stacked horizontally.

Write it down! Don't waste time trying to remember important

           details. Pencil in appointments and events on a family
           calendar. Keep a running grocery/drugstore list in the kitchen.
           Place pads and pens by each phone, your nightstand and in
           your car.

Set up groups of e-mail addresses, so with just one click you

can send the same message to a number of people, such as
committee members or teammates.

Separate tall books from short ones. Then adjust the shelves

in your bookcase to minimize wasted space between rows.

Make your bed every day. It requires no decision-making, it

takes about 30 seconds, and goes a long way toward keeping
the bedroom serene.
