Well, I haven’t posted in a few days (make that over a week now).

I have just had carpul tunnel release surgery on my left hand. Thank goodness I’m right handed, right? Wrong! I need this left hand to type on the computer and do all the organizing that I do! If you could see how many mistakes I’m making just typing this, you… well you wouldn’t be able to read it! So to keep it short here are just a few quick tips:

1. Use a business card holder in your purse or tote bag to hold all those java punch cards, discount cards, and gift cards you have to use up.
2. If you have a place where you store your gift bags and wrapping paper, why not add a pair of scissors and tape? When it’s time to wrap, it’s all right there and saves you time.
3. Don’t let flyers with upcoming events clutter your life. Write the information in your day planner, calendar, or pda as soon as you get it and get rid of the paper!
4. Have a few “kitchen only” cleaning rags. Write “kitchen” on them with permanent marker so your loved ones don’t use it on the car or the toilet.
5. Store your seasonal clothing in your suitcases… they’re empty and taking up space, right?
6. Use towel hooks in the bathroom instead of towel bars, the towels will be hung up more often because it’s quick and easy.
