Two Girls and a Drill

Two Girls and a Drill

The drill was our first dabble in power tools, and it’s been a gateway to the electric sander, nail gun, mitre saw, and so much more! Our clients are often surprised and thrilled by our power tool prowess and can-do attitude, and it’s resulted in the convenient checking-off of much of their existing Honey-Do List. We figured it might be wise to highlight just some of the projects we’ve done, since they’re not necessarily expected under the Professional Organizer umbrella.

Putting a Price on Your Time and Mental Health

Putting a Price on Your Time and Mental Health

So often, it’s a mental game of not being able/wanting to commit the time; or your stress and anxiety is too high to let you make any headway. Getting fresh eyes on the space, and eyes trained to see all the potential, can make all the difference.

7 Simple Tips to Help You Declutter

With the onset of spring, you’re not the only one feeling the itch to clear out and make room. Whether you’re dragging out the old “summer box”, refreshing the mantle with some new blooms, or deciding all your clothes are in serious need of an overhaul, first thing’s first. Declutter and get rid of what isn’t serving you with these 7 quick tips:

  1. If you haven’t worn it in 12 months, let it go.

  2. If you forget you had it and haven’t missed it, let it go.

  3. If it’s broken, let it go.

  4. If you haven’t altered it in 12 months, let it go.

  5. If it has stains, let it go.

  6. If you forgot how it works (then you haven’t used it), let it go.

  7. If it’s out of style, let it go.

When in doubt, LET IT GO! The amount of space (mental and physical) it’s taking up in your life isn’t worth it.

Schedules, calendars, and planners...Oh my!

The lazy days of summer are no more, as school and extracurricular activities have begun, or are about to! And we all know it’s a lot to keep track of, so we’ve rounded up some best practices for making it all work seamlessly.

Then there’s the wall whiteboard calendar. As we suggested earlier this week in our social media posts, color-coded pens associated with each family member make for easy identification of commitments and quick viewing at a glance by the entire fam.

Smart digital calendars are another great option. These tablet-looking devices hang on your most frequented wall, and can not only display the family’s real-time calendar, but also the week’s weather report, a shuffling family photo album, and you can even stream your favorite show while you’re cooking dinner.

There’s “Old Faithful” as we like to call it — your phone’s calendar. Always on-hand, easily updated, and automatically shared with the rest of your family (if you’ve done your settings right).

As all well-oiled machines (er, families) know, communication is key! And with work, kids, and our own commitments, that is no small order! Case in point, I was just talking to my cousin who recently instilled “MMC - Morning Marriage Connection”, a half-hour block each morning at the same time where she and her husband touch base to review their daily plans/conflicts.

So whether you use MMCs, digital calendars, spiral planners, or Post-Its, there’s SOMETHING out there for everyone, we promise! And if you need help finding one that works for you, give us a call!
