I am a new follower to your blog, and so far I am loving it!!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know your top 5 favorite organizing tools. With the new year approaching and a new home I cannot wait to spread out and get organized!
Oh I have a few, personal and work (I'm a teacher as well so I love hearing ideas from others)
ReplyDeleteWhat is your favorite book?
Hobbies (other than blogging and getting organiz?ed!)
Plans for children?
Plans for buying a home? -partly because I would love to see how you could organize and decorate that
Work
Are you a classroom theme person in regards to decorating?
If you could teach any grade, what grade would that be?
What is your perspective on classroom discipline?
What made you decide to go to the U of U?
ReplyDeleteI want to know how you get it all done! I have 3 boys and 2 part time jobs and hardly find time to blog!
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm fairly new to your blog and love it! I find so much inspiration reading others' ideas! My resolution for the new year is to get organized once and for all and to somehow find a cleaning/organizing system that works for me. I would love to know if you have a system when it comes to getting things done. If so, do you always stick with it? Do you clean your bathroom one day?, kitchen one day? How do you keep up with the day to day chores when you have a full-time job? Thanks!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have lots of organizational tips and ideas, but do YOU feel like an organized person?
ReplyDeletekorine.miller@yahoo.com
Yay, I love Q&A's! Have you always been interested in organization? What are three tips (or more) that are most important to you?
ReplyDeleteSonshine1296@gmail.com
I would like to know how you learned to do all the neat templates that you offer! Are you a "self taught" kind of person, or did you take classes?
ReplyDeleteI love finding blogs that list other favorite blogs they follow. It's fun to see which blogs are popular and which ones everyone seems to have in common. Do you have other favorite blogs that you follow?
ReplyDeleteI am a Utah native now living in Ohio so it was fun for me to see you live in SLC...
ReplyDeleteI have a question about your blog page - did you do your own designing? What have you done to get your blog page out there? I love having followers on my blog page, find it to be quite fun...
One more question for you what are your New Years Resolutions?
Happy Holidays,
Karie
do you eat lunch in the cafeteria at your school or do you pack?

hi! I'm also new to your blog...great stuff here! my question is: what is a dream splurge space of yours? (like a theatre room, crafting room, etc)
ReplyDeleteI would love to know how your cleaning schedule looks--daily, monthly, quarterly, yearly. Love your blog!!!
ReplyDeleteHow do you keep your priorites in order? I struggle with kid/husband/work/home/craft/me balance. Thanks for a chance to win and thanks for the AWESOME blog content!!
ReplyDeleteSince you are in a time of transition, this may not be the best time for you to answer this "question", but I have wondered what a typical day/week looks like for you. I enjoy recordkeeping and lists, but based on your templates it seems that you've far surpassed me in that area. Curious when you find the time to update your lists, finances, etc. and how long it takes you every day.
ReplyDeleteI'd also be curious in a "what's in my bag" confessional. You mentioned loving a certain bag designer. What do you carry and how do you organize it?
I just found your blog today through Pinterest and will definitely be going through the archives! I am on a mission to organize my home in the new year, and while I am fairly good at getting rid of things we don't need anymore, I still find the clutter piling up. My question would be: when you feel overwhelmed by a house full of clutter and disorganization, where do you start? How do you combat the feeling of complete overwhelm? Also, how do you stay motivated once you start? (I'm famous for being gung-ho at the beginning and then quitting before I'm totally done). Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh my heck - I'm so glad I have you linked on my blog. I didn't know anything about Erin Condren...I think I'm in love! I could never afford her stuff - but if nothing else - thank you for introducing me to her site! BTW - how do you manage paper clutter? It multiplies too quckly!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog! Especially the photos of your classroom. Do you have a top ten list of favorite organizing products?
ReplyDeleteLove your blog! I love organizing my home, however I never feel like my kitchen is really organized. Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteTiffany, I just have to say I love your blog! What tips to you have to organize a bathroom closet?

I'd love to know your best tips for kids, especially wallet friendly ones! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to ask a question. Do you have a favorite method to organize your finances such as www.Manilla.com I have heard a lot of good suggestions about manilla. Any thoughts to keep all that incoming mail re: bills in check? P.S. I love Erin Condren's Life Planner and hope you share the Gift Certificate before Christmas :)
ReplyDeleteWish I had more time to read your blog and follow your tips. What would you suggest as a starting point to organization for a busy working mom?

I love your blog!!! What's your secret to staying organized, blogging, working, and running a household? My biggest problem is I'm so tired after work that I hardly have time or the energy to do much more. Any tips??? What is something I can easily do each day to keep my house organized and not so overwhelming??
ReplyDeleteHow do you organize all your kids' home art supplies? How do you organize what to keep/recycle? I don't want to throw away art as soon as it's produced, but we just can't keep EVERYTHING! How long do you keep art before it gets recycled?
ReplyDeleteThank you!
I love your blog and have come across several ideas that I want to try. This organizationally challenged working Mama needs too! What is the one organizing tool that you simply could not do without?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
