Ditto! I love FLYlady.net.
De-clutter your house 15 minutes at a time. Grab three boxes and label one "Throw away" another "Keep" and the other "Donate". As soon as the "Throw away" box is full, throw it away. As soon as the "Donate" box is full, tape it up and throw it in the back of your car and drop it off on your next trip. Take the items in the "Keep" box and put them in a new home right away. My house looks twice it's size after I started de-cluttering and using the Flylady's suggestions (Finally Loving Yourself) for two weeks and I cannot tell you how much it has helped me. BTW: When I quilt I do NOT set my timer for 15 Mins.
FLYlady RULES! I had a box of Mayhem and Foolishness in my den - I had my son set a timer for 15 minutes. When it beeped I had sorted the junk into "Bills to pay", "File", "Shred" and "Recycle" - paid my darling $1 to shred for me since I had to get back to girl cave and sew some more!
