Quick Cleaning the Bathroom
This has been in your newsletter before, but bares repeating. At night I 'quick
clean' the bathroom with a antibacterial wipe. The faucets, sinks, counter, and
toilet seat. It is surface clean, but if a friend needs to use the bathroom, I
don't have to feel embarrassed.
I am retired with my husband. Our son, who does work outside the home, lives
with us, so you know how a bathroom can get with two men in the house!
I enjoy your newsletter. I like to scrapbook, travel, and help in my church with
my time.

Keeping Tools Easily Accessible
I wanted to share support for the reader
(Mar 8th issue)
whose spouse won't organize. My husband also won't even get rid of empty boxes.
We moved from Utah to California and there were boxes of his that weren't
unpacked for 5 years. But if I get rid of it, he will immediately ask for some
tiny thing that was in that box. It has resulted in some really bad feelings on
both sides.
Now I just pile everything up by his desk. I can't stand it, just throw away one
thing (the broken handle from the pool cleaner that he said he would fix 6
months ago), the falling apart paperbacks from college 40 years ago. He won't
let go of any textbooks - he hates giving them to charity and wants to give them
to a school or library - but no one wants them.
There can be a pile of paper that is 10 years old, but if I throw away a single
10 year old statement, he will ask me where it is. He is legally blind without
his glasses since childhood and I sometimes think this 'memorizing' where things
are is something he does to cope. (I should have known when he walked past me on
a beach on our honeymoon because I had moved 6 feet over. He was very upset I
moved because I had the room key and he didn't know where I was).
We have been married 35 years, and now I just accept that there will always be
some level of hoarder behavior in our house. I have tried to get him to embrace
tools to get organized, but he resists them all. I try to contain it to certain
areas, but I feel my choices are either adapt or divorce!

These Extras Make Great Gifts!
Hi, Maria!
I'm working on emptying an unfinished basement that is full of 50+ years of
stuff (much of which is ruined from dust and dampness). When I'm gone, I don't
want my children to have to go through that mess. It gets tiring, and it's easy
to feel like I'm not ever going to get the job done. However, I found the
perfect mantra on my cat calendar. It keeps me going. 'It does not matter how
slowly you go, as long as you do not stop.' - Confucius
Thanks for all your good advice, planning, and organizing to help us become
fabulous declutterers! I have gotten so many wonderful, life-changing ideas
from your newsletter!

This Week's Recommendation
|
Say Goodbye to Your Dog's
Problem Behaviors with...
Brain Training for Dogs
You'll love this...
and the Complimentary Bonus as well!
|
To fast forward to making your dog's problem behaviors disappear, visit:
www.getorganizednow.com/rd-brainy-dog.html
No matter what your dog's problem behavior is, be it jumping, peeing in the
house, aggression, pulling on the leash...or whatever, there is ONE SOLUTION
that can help STOP this problem now.
The sad fact is, most dog trainers miss this solution entirely. They give you
cookie cutting training programs. They use outdated, mean, and unkind dominance
techniques. Or worse yet, they have no qualifications to be offering advice.
So what's the answer to stopping your dog's behavioral problems? In 5 simple
words...
Discovering your dog's hidden intelligence.
Let me explain. More intelligent dogs are better behaved. A more intelligent dog
takes commands easier and understands what you need. The good news is, no matter
how clever you think your dog is, you can unlock your pet's hidden intelligence
quickly and easily.
Don't waste a second longer coping with problem behaviors you don't need to be
dealing with. Visit this link to learn more about Brain Training for Dogs:

P.S. When you visit the link, you'll also find out how to get Behavior
Training for Dogs complimentary. I'll remind you up until the deadline on
Friday, March 19th, at 11:59 p.m.
