HEY, GOTTA MINUTE? Actually 20 minutes? Here we are in February and, if you are like many of us, your January 1st good intentions have flown out the window!! Usually our Newsletter is sent our on the FIRST Tuesday of each month, but we had a rather unusual few weeks - so, here we are, sending out the Newsletter on February 14th. Our advice for anyone wanting to start a downsizing or organizing project is to START SMALL, BUT START TODAY. Since there are only 15 more days left in the month, here are FIFTEEN Diva suggestions to get you started:  Clean out under your bathroom sink(s). Sort, purge, replace. Check all light fixtures and replace burnt-out bulbs with energy-efficient bulbs. Be a generous giver and fill a box with gently-used clothing for your favourite charity. Re-pot or refresh indoor plants and give them a new lease on life. Remove items from horizontal surfaces in one room; replace with things you love and donate the rest. Pay monthly bills and reconcile your Cheque Books.
SNAP - SNAP - Update family photos in frames around the house. Find a junk drawer and de-junk it! Keep the cleaning supplies you use regularly. Dispose of the rest responsibly. Go through clothes closets. Keep only items that make you feel fabulous! Sharpen all the pencils in the house; make sure all pens are working!
Clean your refrigerator and get rid of items that are unrecognizable. Clean your cutlery drawer. Toss anything that is rusty, broken or totally useless! Remove everything from the cabinet under the sink. Sort, purge and replace. Organize the top shelf in the front hall closet.
