I try my best to keep my house as organized as possible, but there is one area in which I’m in desperate need of help: PAPERS. I’m drowning. in. them. Mail, service reports for Noodle’s special therapy (speech, OT, and nutrition), bills, insurance information, and just general things to do. Plus my lists. Dozens of lists. Oh, and coupons. And receipts. SO MUCH PAPER!
Thank goodness I saw an offer for a free download of simplify 101’s Command Central binder. Aby Garvey, the organizational guru behind simplify 101, knows her stuff. Because with the Command Central guide, in one night all of that paper went from two heaping bins of paper mess to this:
:: cue the Hallelujah choir ::
I tweaked it to fit my needs, and it’s like having my own personal assistant!
Amazingly, I’ve managed to keep it up for over a month now. Hooray, simplify 101! And thank you, from the bottom of my paper-filled heart. You can take advantage of simplify 101’s Command Central binder offer simply by following this link and signing up for a weekly email that contains a short organizing tip. You’ll get the guide right to your email. I truly enjoy reading the easy and quick ideas that Aby sends to my inbox each week.

Hm. Do I have to pick just one?? Even though we keep our kid toys to a tiny amount due to limited-space, the ones we have could really use some organizing so that they are less unsightly all the time!!
