Spoodler those are awesome tips!

I always start a load of clothes in the washer before I leave and turn on the dishwasher. I also clean the whole kitchen while I am cooking. While the kids are in the tub, I sit on the floor in the doorway checking my email on my laptop.

I lay out all their clothes in a shoe organizer on the back of their bedroom door. I put shorts on the bottom 12 rows and shirts on the top two rows.

I put all of their hand me down clothes in totes that are labeled, that way when Kameron who is 4 outgrows his clothes, I put them in a tote labeled with the size for Ethan who is 3 for when he is ready. No sorting!

I regularly go through their bedroom with a garbage bag and make a trashbag for goodwill.
I do the same with my clothes and shoes too. If I don't wear it, its gone. I hate clutter. Clutter is a bad word.

I go to college online full time. I put sticky notes on my pages for what homework is do that week and cross it off when I complete it. No assignment can be afforded to be late.

I keep all of my homework papers in one big binder with tabs for my classes. I file everything! I hate not being able to find something. I also label everything.

I shred stupid junk mail immediately. I have a bar in my kitchen and its covered in papers right now driving me absolutely crazy! I try to throw things out when my fiance isn't around. He is a packrat and half the time he never misses what I throw away.

I went through my kitchen and threw away all of the kitchen gadgets, tools, pots, pans, etc that I never used. I gave them all to goodwill and now I can find the one's I actually use right away when I need them.

Thats all I can think of!
