However, I would argue that I’m not! I am to a point, but I never feel like I am getting it all done like I should be. Then I received The Busy Woman’s Planner for review - it is definitely heaven-sent! I’ve tried using day planners before, but just never succeeded in using them long-term. I do not think that will be the case with this planner." Read the rest of my product review! Candles by Homestead Originals I love to support work-at-home moms and you will see me recommend various websites throughout my pages. I will try to place the business information on appropriate pages. Because I love to light candles in my living room, I'm going to list candle companies on these pages! I can highly recommend candles from Homestead Originals. I have several in my home and they burn clean, light smelling - not overwhelming, and for a very long time! Their candles are made from soy and so do not emit toxins as they are burning. They sell all sizes, shapes and prices for all budgets. Try a Homestead Original candle today! Graphics provided by Keeping Up With the Paperwork! Paper clutter can really overwhelm you and keep a home from looking tidy. Once again, this is a task that requires daily maintenance! - when you get the daily mail, deal with it IMMEDIATELY! Sort through it, shred/toss junk mail, pay bills and put new magazines on the coffeetable (or in the bathroom - LOL!) for future reading. - have an IN and OUT box for paying bills - Recycle magazines at the end of the month. If you see a magazine that you are just not reading, call and cancel the subscription and get a pro-rated check for the unmailed issues. You can also donate magazines to offices (Dr.'s, law, etc.) and libraries - Have a filing cabinet or container and file papers away regularly. Decide which homeschooling papers you will keep and which you will toss. I keep lapbooks, but toss daily papers at the end of every school year. Special papers, stories, etc. go on the kids' bulletin boards or in their scrapbooks. - Keep papers for tax purposes for 7 years and then toss the rest. It is my hope that you will find something useful here on my site! I currently enjoy the privilege of being able to stay at home to homeschool my children and I am always striving to be the best caretaker for my precious family.
