Ultralight Towel Field Testing

The Ultralight Towel Field Test has begun! After over a week of daily use (and sometimes two showers a day since we are at the beach), my towel has begun to show signs of wear. But please keep in mind, this is after several days of use! They are soft and absorbent, and the "beach towel" covers the body when coming in from the outdoor shower! I'll write more later.

Teleclass Tidbit-Working with Students with ADHD

Teleclass Tidbit

One bit of advice from last night's NSGCD class "Working with Students with ADHD" presented by Sacramento organizer Holly Graff, CPO®, was one I use myself.

The "Time-Timer" clock is a cool little (or big) gadget that lets you visually see how much time you have left for a project. Also available for your computer and now an iPhone app. http://www.timetimer.com/

Lightload towels--Earthquake kits?

I'm in the process of "field-testing" these ultra-light towels and will report on them in the coming weeks. So far, I like them. I think they will be a really great addition to earthquake preparedness kits. They come rolled into tiny "coins" (they have to be hydrated), are soft and best yet...inexpensive! My toughest critic (my 8 year-old daughter) is helping me in the testing!
See them here at Lightload Towels.

Just for fun...more Organizing Acronyms...

Silly stuff I found on a sticky note that I had written last year.

These are possible acronyms for organizing businesses:

CONCH

(Creative Organizing in Coastal Homes)

OUT!

(Organizing Umpires Tirelessly!)

Sit. STAY.

(Situational Strategies for Terriers and Apsos in Yurts)

(OK I know that one is a real stretch!)

POOCH

(Preferred Occupational Organizers for Cockers and Hounds)

Can you think of some more?

Genius little grippers for hangers

 

I love these little sticky gel pads you put on hangers to keep things from slipping off. Genius! I got them for a client and I am using them too.   

Slip Grip...only about $3.00 for 20 grips which will be good for 10 hangers. I bought mine at Organize.com. http://www.organize.com/clear-slip-grip-self-adhesive-shoulder-holders.html
