[apricot]

If I don't use or like something anymore then it goes to a charity or in the trash. I try to have a place for everything and keep everything in its place as much as possible but that's difficult when you live with other adults who don't put things away when they are done with them. If I am cleaning out a drawer or cabinet I like to use sticky post-it notes to temporarily label things that belong in a different room or are going to charity or elsewhere. Then when I'm finished with the area I make one trip to the other room or charity box. I keep a waste basket near so the trash gets thrown out immediately. I also like lists and try to make a list of 10 things that I did for the day. They don't have to be big things but are encouraging and help me to stay focused. I'm more of a pen and paper list maker than using the computer since I would more likely get distracted on the computer.
