Operation Organization

Lisa Hall gave us so many great practical ideas for organizing our homes / lives.  Here are a few:
  • Color code your kids
  • Put in one load of laundry every morning when you get up
  • Use a whiteboard to list family's daily activities
  • Tichler file: folder for each month + one for each day of one month (1-31).  Put invitations, schedules, school reminders, etc in the appropriate day or month.
  • Photos: have an extras box for each child full of their photos that you will not be using.  They can use these for school projects, etc.
  • Cat in the Hat: quick cleanup, getting everything back in order
  • Family project Saturdays
  • The "Power of Now"
  • Be intentional
There were many others of course -- these were just some that stuck with me.  Share your favorite organizational tips!
