A cry for help


The homey, welcoming, down-to-earth look


The living room corner


The couch in need of new cushions
(foam waiting in bedroom)


my craft/sewing table

Three bins full of kitchen stuff to sort


Last but not least, the infamous Ikea dresser, in pieces.


Are you there, God? Please send help.

Just checked out the site. It has lots of good advice, some I've heard before and some new stuff.

I like this tip:

Go through the mail as soon as you bring it in the house.
Only open it with your calendar, cards, and garbage can at your side. (This cuts down on handling it twice.)
Have one place for bills. And put them there!
Have a day for paying them and stick to it. FlyLady's date with her bills: on the 1st and 15th of each month.
Reconcile your bank statement the day you get it.
Put sale papers, advertisments, and catalogs by your chair, so you can look at them when you deserve a break. Do not let them pile up! Look at them the next time you sit down and have your scissors, grocery list, and garbage can handy.
