How can you tell you’re in an Organized Home? Part 3 of 3

11. Your whole family can get ready and out the door in less than one hour.
In an organized home, lunches are made, backpacks are packed, permission slips are signed,
and clothing is set out the night before…and no, the mom’s name isn't “Wonder Woman.”
Tables can be set the night before for breakfast. It’s easier to tackle tasks with some planning
and small efforts than to be frustrated running around in a panic.

12. You no longer have duplicates or triplicates of things you already own.
You know what you have and you don't have to run out at the last minute to buy a utensil, or
ingredient simply because you can't find the one you just know you have …somewhere. You will
not only have what you need, but you will know exactly where it is.

13. Putting groceries away doesn't involve an entire afternoon 'finding room'. Because you
have an organized pantry (not overstuffed), and it is simply a matter of putting the groceries
in their place. Being organized frees up more time. Wouldn’t you find it relaxing to free up your
afternoon for a good book, fun and games with the family or some very important YOU time?

14. You no longer have to pay late fees for video rentals, fines for overdue library books or
forget to take the dry cleaning in (and now you don’t have what you need when you need it).
In an organized home you have a basket or system that is specifically used for items that need to leave when you do.

15. Getting dressed for work is no longer an agonizing decision or an aerobic exercise.
In an organized home, the clothing is always in the closet, hung up neatly and arranged either by outfit,
color or length (and season if your closet is big enough).  When your clothing is hung up in the closet
and put away in the dresser you are easily able to select your outfit and accessories either the night
before, or when you get up in the morning.

Something to think about while in the shower…
