Super fly!
This is so cool.I have done this in the past. I dont remember this step, but its a good one.
Thank you Lori
Yeah it’s a really helpful step, isn’t it? Since we also have digital clutter.
Love the 2 minutes! I’m not much of a visual cluttered. I put everything in drawers! Haha. So I cleaned the 2 drawers of my China cabinet. 2 minutes each drawer. Just doing this everyday will help me get rid of a lot of junk!
That’s so awesome, Janet! Great job. And I’m the same – I like to have all of my things in cabinets and drawers.
This is so awesome! It’s definitely something I need to try.
Yeah it’s really helpful! I highly recommend her program.
Thanks so much for impacting us with your knowledge and time you spend to do research we appreciate.
After team driving with my husband and only being home 24 hours a week for 5yrs. Im finally home now with granddaughters… & the awful, chaotic, mess of a house. So very grateful to find your page. Im so overwhelmed and squirrel with a thousand other things i need to clean. I have true hope now to have a real organized & clean home to enjoy!
I have taken to replacing most of the shoulds with coulds . Ex: I should do the dishes/I could do the dishes. Thanks to my French friends for their inspiration! (Other Europeans as well.)
In addition to putting washcloths and dish towels into the laundry every day I also add pillowcases. Helps keep the sweat and whatever else emerges in the night off the face!
My grandmother and all her friends always dressed in the morning. Down to a nice necklace. Our Mom as well. No slobby sweatpants!
