Tips and Tricks to Make Life Easier

It's easier to relax when you're organized.

Here are 4 quick monthly tips from me, Molly Boren
of Simplicity Works Organizing Services. I hope they
make your life a little easier.
 

Remember: if it takes 2 minutes or less, do it now. 
That is, read this now & then file or delete it. 
How ironic if it were to become e-clutter!
DO


Cell phone

Do Find
Few things are scarier than a misplaced cell phone. But with the ingenious WheresMyCellPhone.com, you just enter your number on the website & listen for the ring. Elegantly simple -- & as we know, simplicity works. (This tip is back by popular demand.)
DON'T




Don't Buy Presents
'Tis the season to think about buying holiday gifts, but before pulling out that credit card, take stock of your gift cards instead. Many of us have stacks of them, for places we haven't had reason to visit -- but here's your reason! It's a win-win: you save cash, and the gift recipient gets something great.
GET


Get Dressed Already
It's easy to waste time & precious decision-making energy on as simple a task as choosing the day's clothes. Combine like items (long-sleeved shirts together, casual pants in one area) & then make it super-easy to identify the category with a label like Simple Division's Closet Organizer Tags.
GIVE


Food Gatherers truck

Give Candy (and Other Food)
Food Gatherers works to alleviate hunger and eliminate its causes in Washtenaw County, MI. And they need your extra Halloween candyFood Gatherers provides food for direct clients PLUS 150 other non-profits. And they do much more. Check them out, or your own local food rescue or food bank.
ORGANIZE
