Really? One Year to an Organized Work Life Filled with Hapiness?: I said no to stress!

Tuesday, May 15, 2012

I said no to stress!

I realized tonight that I had to pick up snacks for tomorrow morning's meeting, and I won't have time to stop on the way. Rather than making a mad dash to the store, I checked the closet in our guest room and now have three different bars--cereal and granola--plus two boxes of flavored water pouches. If nobody else brings snacks, at least we'll have something! And I didn't have an adrenaline rush.

Home Habit of the Month

Month 3: Get rid of and file all mail and incoming paper from school, work, and play as soon as it comes in. (Touch it once!)

Accomplished on: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

This includes reading newspapers and recycling right away and cutting coupons and recycling the remaining paper right away. There are two visual measures to this success in my house.

1. Dining room table free of clutter

2. Kitchen counter free of clutter

On May 1 the dining room table is pristine. The small kitchen counter has a to do pile, which I'll put in a folder so it isn't as noticeable. That way I will have a visual reminder. Is the small counter clear? Yes. Good. No? Take care of it every day!
