    We will most likely be moving to another state in three months so I want to clean out anything we don’t need and have a clean slate!

    It’s hard to pick just one area that could use simplicity and organization. Besides my brain, I guess my closets and kitchen cabinets are worthy candidates. :-)

    I’m currently living with friends so I need to purge through all of my contents of living in a 3 bedroom home into 1 bedroom – without having my own living, dining and bathroom. I’m so overwhelmed that the thought of starting terrifies me – my goal this week is just to start with the top of my dresser – Maybe starting with something small will give me moment to continue and finish with the big stuff.

    KEEP IT SIMPLE (STUPID) – sorry, I had to!

    I really need to work on simplifying our living room. I need to utilize it more for living (aka enjoying our friends and family) and less for doing laundry, sorting mail, etc. I have places specifically for those purposes, they just aren’t well used.

    Keep it Simple! I really need organizing help in our storage room and in our play room. These two rooms have overflowed with extra stuff that we don’t use anymore. My 2012 Resolution is to clean out both of the room and build shelving units for them. I also would like to organize my garage, but that can wait.
