Organize Everything

Wow, am I ever starting out my first week as editor of Sites 4 Moms as one tired momma! We just moved across the state this week and I found muscles I never knew existed. Our move was to a furnished parsonage where we’ll be for 3 months so we had to store a great bit of our household contents. It was so difficult to organize everything in a sensible, easy-to-find fashion. It was also difficult to decide what to bring with us for 3 months. Definitely an organizing nightmare! The site I’m sharing with you all today helped me a great deal in preparing for this move.

This site is really a support group for clutter bugs like me. I know many ladies online who have used this system to change their daily lives. The site contains information and tips for helping you organize your home and your life. More than information and tips, it also provides a step-by-step guide to getting started. For those of use whose mess is so overwhelming we just ignore it, this works perfectly. FlyLady offers a set of “baby steps” with specific tasks for you to do in getting started. As you complete each step, you can move on to another.

There are lots of motivational and inspirational tidbits along the way. It is nice to see organization help offered while still reminding us ladies to take time for ourselves. FlyLady really addresses the whole woman. Not just your clutter and your home, but making time to take care of yourself physically, time to rest and time to achieve your life’s goals.

Obviously, the system doesn’t do all the work for you (sorry to disappoint *wink*), but it is a great helping tool to keep us from running in circles all day. Even if you don’t use the entire system, the individual tips are great. My favorite moving tip was the section about packing for the move which reminded me of the things I needed to have readily available when we first arrived – like clean underwear!

Take a peek at the site, I’m sure you’ll find something that is helpful to you!

Have fun being a mom!
