[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I deal with it by having a set routine that I plan in advance. For example, I surface clean the bathroom on Wednesday nights because that is when the kids take their bath. Then all the bath towels go in the washer that night. I always start laundry on Friday nights so that I can fold Saturday AM. A routine makes things much easier because you don't have to think about it. I also make getting rid of stuff a high priority. [b]You might like the website FlyLady[/b]. It is for scattered home executives.[/quote] OP here: I did like it but it never stuck. I was just thinking I should look into it again. Thanks. [/quote] Also look into organize365.com - owner Lisa has these 100-day "whole house" declutter and organize sessions with a set focus each week and a daily assignment - which you can do 3-4 days all at once on a weekend day. She is very realistic that it takes 3 rounds of 100-day sessions to really purge the stuff and finally get around to organizing what's left. After doing this for the past 18 months (though not in complete 100-day increments) the clutter I was left with was organizing bins! Now when I take stuff to Goodwill/A Wider Circle/St Albans Opportunity Shop, I take it in one of the gazillion organizer boxes that I thought would "help" me get organized. Next I will be tackling all my organizing books :)[/quote]
