Dear Noa:
SO true!
But, if it worked for me, it wd. be worth the xtra e-m's & ya know what those a.m. & p.m. ones are gonna say, so I just dump most of them. I just started getting them about about 3 weeks ago (thanks SusanC I think?) & I need to organize & de-clutter desperately. CHAOS rules! I shd. be shining my sink (spent last nite beading & reading-up way too late, as usual).Now I must rush to get my child to pre-K and myself to my tiny 10-hr a week job!
Pitiful!But, I really do need to establish routines~~most everything heretofore has been determined by my mood/pain/energy level. & now that I feel a little better, I want to spend my time enjoying myself. A bit immature, I know, but it's the truth.
I remember your posts from a couple of summers ago. You were not well, and agonizing over yr. apt. I never posted to you about that-too ill, but I'm glad both you and your home seem to be feeling better.
Have always enjoyed your posts. Hope your day is a good one.

A lot of it isn't useful for me, but there are a few things I find helpful: the "dressing to the shoes" thing, some of the routines (like getting all your morning stuff together before going to bed), the timed 15-minute de-cluttering reminders, and possibly the structure of following her week by week "zone" focus, which kind of gives a group effort feel to it--ie, knowing lots of people are focusing on their entry-ways this week, their living rooms next week, etc.
