When little John was home, I wanted to show him how a proper adult should organize his or in my case her stuff. Once he left... I never really cared, which I now realize is not good. I love your advice June. I remember school shopping and seeing some adorable folders with whales on them. Maybe I will take the next step in my life and reorganize my desk!Julie!!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16485440518298083746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011530232045381270.post-75438157005236347502008-10-28T21:20:00.000-07:002008-10-28T21:20:00.000-07:00I agree with Arizona.

It was always the most nerve wracking when it needed to be 'Mom and Dad' clean!JPReaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06969533521101295087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011530232045381270.post-13462476355870170862008-10-24T11:41:00.000-07:002008-10-24T11:41:00.000-07:00I don't know how I found your website Beth, but I ...I don't know how I found your website Beth, but I think I was searching something about "Hiking". <BR/><BR/>Interesting article on organization. I'm not an emtnester, nor do I have younger children. In fact, it's just my husband and myself. When the kitchen counter gets cluttered by mail put there by him, and the magazines start adding up (I've cancelled all subscriptions!) I just freeze up. <BR/><BR/>I emptied out our storage unit, trying to cut back...now all that stuff is now in our garage! Yikes! It's very overwhelming! I hate it. I'll tackle it, because we have relatives coming, that is a good cure!<BR/><BR/>Living Passionately,<BR/>AriZona<BR/><BR/>www.arizonaoffthewall.comAriZonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13542100289406877525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011530232045381270.post-74115516037726875342008-10-21T10:14:00.000-07:002008-10-21T10:14:00.000-07:00I am great at cleaning up my desk. if it is in a p...I am great at cleaning up my desk. if it is in a pile that has not been moved in a week, I trash the whole pile. if it is not in its place, then it can't be that important.gettingraphic designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13583643293288423054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011530232045381270.post-10691374388000378232008-10-20T21:47:00.000-07:002008-10-20T21:47:00.000-07:00I clean up by carrying all the clutter to a new lo...I clean up by carrying all the clutter to a new location, instead of trying to do it bit by bit. It's very satisfying to have the space the way you want it immediately. The I go through the stuff, and I'm very reluctant to return it to my dusted, polished, neat workplace.<BR/><BR/>Of course, 2-3 weeks later, you'd never know I did anything . . .JPReaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06969533521101295087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011530232045381270.post-60360962364700672052008-10-09T15:05:00.000-07:002008-10-09T15:05:00.000-07:00Move the picture!
