I need some serious home organization/de-clutter/deep cleaning interventions. I look at my house and do not even know were to start with even trying to get organized. I have a 12 year old that is becoming a terrible chore-doer, and I know I am not setting a very good example for her because I suck at it myself. I am just at the point that I am so overwhelmed to even start something. And when I do start something, there is always something that I come across that grabs my attention, and I never get anything completed. I have been researching "home organization" binder/systems, and I tell ya, I really think I need to try and instill something like this. I need something already thought out that breaks things down into do-able lists that I can have a concrete focus on. It is time I do something or This house is gonna eat me alive.
PS. I do not like clutter or dirty, unorganzied homes, I just can't seem to keep up with it all....and then it all goes to hell in a hand basket.....
I am in the SAME boat... But its expensive to organize. I have checked out book after book at the library and never followed through. I have tried to follow fly lady and have failed. If you find something, please let me know.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about a family planning binder, too... just to keep "things" in order. Like regular household chores, family time, date nights, ballgames, school stuff... stuff like that. Maybe we should design our OWN with templates & such... hmm.....
ReplyDeleteMelissa, maybe that could be one of our Great Creates.... :)
ReplyDeleteSummer...I will let you know what I find...
Ladies... I have this. I like it, but its mainly to keep things together at my desk. I don't rely on the calendar portion as I use my phone.
