Things to Do

Filter
  • Transitioning to Electronic Files at Home

    When paper becomes overwhelming the most logical thing to do is go "paperless".  But what exactly is "paperless"?  So many people think that they can just scan everything into the computer and get rid of the papers.  That is true on a very basic level, but there is much more to being…


  • The Housework and Clutter Equation

    Have you ever given any consideration to how much your clutter is costing you, in terms of time, emotional and mental energy as well as cold hard cash?  Many people tell me that they would work on their clutter but there are so many more interesting things to do.  This could not be truer,…


  • REAL STEEL

    REAL STEEL

    Released in Theaters: Oct. SYNOPSIS: In the not-too-distant future where robot boxing is a popular sport, a struggling promoter (Hugh Jackman) rehabs a discarded robot and pits it against other bots in the ring. He’s also a deadbeat dad who’s none too happy about having to look after his…


  • FOOTLOOSE

    FOOTLOOSE

    Not yet rated; likely PG-13. In theaters 10/14. It’s always an iffy proposition when you remake a classic movie, especially when it’s as iconic as 1984’s Footloose (or Dirty Dancing, another upcoming remake).


  • The American Garage

    The US Department of Energy reported in 2010 that one-quarter of Americans with a two-car garage have so much stuff stored in it there is no room left for vehicles.  How much room is in your garage? Why do we have so much stuff?  The why's aren't nearly as important as the question of…


  • Staying Sane in a Sea of Papers

    We all have them and no matter how hard we try to be "paperless" there is no way of eradicating paper completely from our lives. Since they are here to stay, what do we do with them? We sort them…we sort them honestly and diligently.


  • National Food Safety Month

    September is National Food Safety Month.  Did you know that one in six Americans will get sick from food poisoning this year alone? This problem is more serious than many people realize. Food poisoning not only sends more than 100,000 Americans to the hospital each year – it can also have…


  • You Can’t Buy It

    So you want to get organized – the first thing to do is to run to your nearest Container Store (which is more than two hours away) and purchase everything you see.  With all of those containers who could help but be organized, right?  Wrong. Being "organized" means different things to…


  • Mail Management Advice

    Is there ever a day when you get no mail in your mailbox?  I am talking about the one mounted to your home or on a post at the curb – not the one on top of your desk.  Mail can be an extraordinary thing; cards from loved ones, pieces bearing good news, packages, even checks.  Mail…


  • Invisible Clutter

    Do you wish your clutter were invisible?  It may be more invisible than you think – especially to you.  When we live with items and see them day-in-and-day-out, they tend to dissolve into the background of our lives.  Want to see your clutter with new eyes?  Take a photo and…
