Follow the 12 Minutes to Get Organized routines (www.12minutestogo.com)

I’m trying a system of my own. Something that doesn’t require me to follow someone else’s routine, because I tend to rebel against that.

Alright today I completed the goal. It was Spend your time today getting rid of pens that don’t work, dried out markers, and pencils that are too short to write with. Toss those mismatched pen caps too!
Did both the ones in the office and kitchen.

I’m liking this website. I have not been able to do what is suggested every day but on days that I do it, it feels great. I’m going to keep this on teh goal list for a little while longer til it comes a habit.

I’m not doing this every day, but trying to when I can. I don’t have a furnace or I can’t get into the garage (which has a gravel floor) some days. But it does make me more conscious of the things that need to be done.

At least it’s getting difficult to find 52 things.

and I’m still finding it useful. But it doesn’t need to be a goal anymore.

I’ll do that when I get home. I was wondering, do you have trouble finding 52 things?

Yesterday I didn’t do anything. Shame on me hopefully tommorow I will get in what I missed yesterday. But today I gave the washer and dryer a thorough wiping down, and organized my detergent, dryer sheets, etc.

was crazy. I started out just doing the 30-minute “General Cleaning Day” routine and four hours later (!) I was done in the living room. I ended up rearranging the furniture, straightening up the home office and dusting our bedroom… it was fun though. One thing just led to another and when I finally walked the dogs at 3:30, I was tired and ready to rest. It’s a good thing Cali was taking the lead! :-)
