My right hand man and sometimes my brain.

As a person who sometimes has to many irons in the fire, I have learned that being and staying organized is a challenge. First I did the sticky note on the computer, but between me saying "I'll do that later" and the cat thinking they where the best toys ever it didn't work. I bought a day planner after talking to a dear friend at the Assessors Office. Did I use it? At first no, I was horrible filling in my day after it was over! I had a class at Kaplan University that made me keep track of my time. (Papers are not going to write themselves). I have found that keeping myself on track is really helping me get things done. I use the block method and give myself an allotted amount of time to complete a task.

Now here is the brain part. You ever have a day where you are not sure what is going on? Happens to me a lot. To many things pop up and I loose track of everything. (Case in point missing bull, neighbor found him and called told me where he was, if I had not written it down he would still be there) Writing things down like phone calls I get or make helps jog my memory when I cannot remember if I talked to that person. I also write down some weird things like if I watered the plants, or did the laundry (I think I need a maid) or if something really catches my attention and I want to remember it to go back again.

I am always open to ideas on keeping organized and staying on track. Thank you for putting up with my scatter brain post the coffee pot is not working today so I am still in a haze.

Making the Most of a Modest Space

While some people who are selling their home think a small kitchen is a negative, there are several ways that you can make it stand out and appeal to potential buyers: Light it up. Darkness can often make smaller rooms feel even more cramped. To open the room up to more light, consider removing all curtains from windows and instead install recessed blinds. You still get the privacy factor, while also allowing your kitchen to have a brighter feel. Keep the counters tidy. Many people have things strewn about their kitchen counters and cabinets. Think about keeping your counter tops clear of all items, including photos, papers and even appliances, to make it seem like the room is larger than it truly is. Brighten the walls.
