Leslie, you inspire me to stay organized. I don't see HOW you do it with six children, heading up the group, keeping your blog up, and when I see all you are doing at home, I am amazed! You go girl! Connie, thank you for your comment. I am really happy that'll we'll have a finished product at the end of the school year! If I ever put anything to the side to do later, I am not so good about getting back to it. I usually do, it's just takes me a looooong time. :) Lynn Marqueta, though it’s not the best decorating tip, having that spot for organization has been one of the best things I’ve done all year.

We do a year-end portfolio but I tend to put everything into a large manilla envelope "to do later". Of course we all know what that means...lucky to get done before the following year starts. What a wonderful ability for you and your family to look back at where you have come from on a day-by-day basis. We have also started the workbox system lately and absolutely love how it impacts MY organizational abilities as well. Thanks for sharing.

I love keeping up with it daily! We have some of those same stacks from earlier years -and I just never got around to them. Rebecca keeps up with putting things in her notebook now which is really nice too. I love seeing how others organize. It's always fun to share ideas. Love Leslie Hi Lynn,

We are doing notebooks in a similar fashion. I love keeping up with it daily! We have some of those same stacks from earlier years -and I just never got around to them.

Rebecca keeps up with putting things in her notebook now which is really nice too.

I love seeing how others organize. It’s always fun to share ideas.

Love
Leslie

You have motivated me to get on the work box system, and find a good spot to stow everything. Love, Marqueta Dear Lynn,

You are sweet to give Lorena credit where it's due. At least you are not one of the many, many men wandering around in denial. :) Diane, it has taken me all year to get organized. This has really been our transition year. Next year I have no excuse. :) Lynn Ken, that’s funny. You are sweet to give Lorena credit where it’s due.

What a great question for the day after Mother's Day. My sister visited a couple of weeks ago. Lorena told her that every night before she goes to bed, she goes around the house to find my keys, billfold, and cellphone. She puts it on the desk beside the computer. Boy was that a wake-up call. I thought some of Lorena's organized ways were rubbing off on me after 17 years of marriage. Really, it has been her all along! What keeps us organized?
