Here’s a clever way to use peg board – without the pegs. Thread ribbon through the holes, then use the loops to hang photos, notes or appointments with clothespins. I particularly like this idea because it’s so easily adapted to your personal needs.
Here’s a great little application to make your life much easier.

Here’s what they have to say about themselves:
NEW! Interactive Grocery List
Simply use your mouse to check off the items that you need, add any notes for yourself at the bottom and then print and shop!
Sometimes home organizing doo-dads end up being too complicated to bother with. This one is simple, it does one thing and does it well. Enjoy!
There are many occasions where it’s helpful to make organized lists. Often these are things were do regularly, but not frequently. Annual events like Christmas or vacations fall into this category, as do special events like throwing a wedding or shower, or even a large dinner party.
Make sure that once you’ve gone through all the hard work of figuring and planning that you don’t have to do it all over again the next time. Make a master list of everything, including all the details and information you’ve come across in your research. Keep this in a safe place, filed and labeled clearly.
Some examples of master lists would be: people to give Christmas gifts, a packing list for vacation, things to do before taking a trip, packing for a move, yearly household organizing or vehicle maintenance.
One of the most useful master lists I’ve ever made I call “Settings on My Computer.”
Sadly, there have been a few times when the best option for solving my computer problems was to reinstall the operating system. Sounds daunting, I know, but it’s much less so with this list.
It contains:
Drivers (from Dell Resource CD – make sure to get Sigmatel for the audio even though it’s not checked)
As you can imagine, this makes the process a million times easier than if I had to dig up all this info all over again.
So the next time you find yourself working on a project and realize, “I know I’ve done this work before,” do yourself a favor, get organized and start making a list for next time. You’ll be glad you did!
Wishing you the best,
Sandy
Most of us probably do the same several things every day when we get on the computer. Or there are certain things we need to keep track of. For example: I like to check the library to see what books are coming due soon, I check the bank to make sure there’s no surprises (there have been!), I check Woot.com to see the deal of the day, etc.
Email alerts are fine and helpful, but sometimes we just don’t need yet another piece of email.
Instead of having to remember every site you want to check daily, use the links bar in your browser to list them. (I shorten the names as much as possible so they’ll all fit in the window.) Now, when you sign on, you can just click your way across and be confident you haven’t missed anything you wanted to stay on top of.
