Ya'll can check out this website which helped me a LOT on housekeeping and clutter issues - plus some time management thrown in too! It's all free stuff to look at and the lady who runs the site (Marla) suffered from severe depression so she can totally relate to the issues that many of use face.

The website is: www.flylady.net (The FLY stands for Finally Loving Yourself). She has some GREAT advice for dealing with the clutter issues.

Hope this helps!

I read in a book I am reading about breakups (yes, I know that's not what this is about) a quote from a bartender: "Messy bed--Messy Head." I know that seems quite simple but when you look at the grand scheme of things you see the accuracy of that statement. If things in your life are cluttered, messy, call it what you want, then it is quite possible that things in your mind will be as well. I didn't just move into a new house, in fact it's been almost a year, but I was still using this as an excuse for the clutter in my house. Last weekend, I made the kids go with grandma and I cleaned out my closet (in more ways than you know)!!! And I feel completely awesome this week. No worries, no distractions, no guilt. God it was so liberating!
