Well, we have to kick it off somewhere, right?
I'm sure everyone's heard the adage, "A place for everything, and everything in its place," right? I can vouch for this. Few ideas keep life more simple than knowing where to find what you're looking for, and knowing exactly where to put something back rather than deliberate. But what some people miss about this is that there are no rules when it comes to something having a place. Just as many of us have learned that you can have pizza for breakfast and waffles for dinner, you don't have to conform to what's "normal" when it comes to organizing your things.
So what do I mean by having no rules? It's simple. Open your mind when it comes to an item's "home." If keeping your vitamins in the fridge helps you remember to take them because the first thing you do in the morning is open the fridge for coffee creamer, then keep them in the fridge! If you always need bibs when you're downstairs at the dining room table, why keep them in a box in the baby's room upstairs? Keep them near the table. And if you're like me, working from home at the living room coffee table...well...there's simply nothing wrong with the breast pump having a home in a drawer in the TV stand, is there?
Okay, tidiers. Go off and make me proud. Find a place for something currently homeless in your life - and make it uber-logical - and report back on whether it's been helpful.
