I would love to hear more recommendations, particularly I would like to hear *what* you liked about them and what they are about.

I am always on the lookout for free downloads or charts I can alter, or just make my own :shrug I have my Mama Domain notebook and that keeps me organized!

Thanks for adding some resources! Keep them coming!

I just read Clear Away the Clutter bu Susan Wright. I sped through it nodding the whole way. She spends some time talking about why we keep clutter and hoard things. This was huge for me. I can organize to the hilt, but I don't want organized clutter, YK?

A small quote from her book that really hit home for me:

Just because something belongs to you doesn't mean you should keep it for the rest of your life. Things are meant to be transitory, but in our culture, somehow they have gained an importance they never deserved.

My new mantra is "My things are not my memories!"
