Last week The Organizing Junkie listed a few fun scrapbook organizing tools. This month she is focusing on organizing craft areas, but doesn’t have one herself. That isn’t stopping her from coming up with all sorts of creative solutions.

I know I’ve mentioned before how important it is to drink water, and I’m sure you’ve heard it plenty of times from other sources. But I’m going to say it again: Drink that water!
Good ol’ H20 can make a huge difference in your health… and your weight.
You can’t flush out all the bad stuff without [...]

I’m sorry. Real life has stepped in. So no book review.

October 28, 2008

I planned on writing a lovely review of The Millionaire Next Door for today, but that just hasn’t happenned. Real life has stepped in.  No, nothing huge. No tragedies here… just real mommy and wife responsibility-type life.
So I haven’t finished reading. And to be quite honest I don’t have it in me to read more [...]
