Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
Do you have a place or places in your home that always attracts clutter? We call this a hot spot. You may need to do a hot spot fire drill each evening to keep these under control. I clear the hot spot in my kitchen every night after dinner. It only takes 2 to 3 minutes, but it has to be done daily.
Have a great week-end!
If you have any questions or tips, please email me. I enjoy hearing from my readers.
