GREAT READS: Looking for a good organizing book?

I love books and I love the fact that over the last few years, there have been many fabulous organizing books hit the shelves at libraries and book stores. Like every topic, each organizing book is catered to a different need. These are three of my favourites. For the busy Mom - House Works by Cynthia Townley Ewer. This book focuses on the key areas that every Mom must manage and keep organized in her family's home. For any one who wants simple, proven ways to stay organized - The Organized Life by Stephanie Denton. For the person who is wanting a simpler, calmer life - The Personal Organizing Workbook by Meryl Star is perfect. It starts with key questions in each area and then takes the reader through tips and strategies to accomplish their true goals. Winter is the perfect time to curl up with a book... and get organized.

MOMENT IN TIME: My son just made me proud...


It's the day after Halloween and I just walked into my son's bedroom to find that he has organized - yes, organized - all his Halloween candies into categories (smarties with smarties, kit kats with kit kats, gum with gum) and then put them into different containers! It's true... the apple or should I say the candy, doesn't fall far from the cart.
