Sustainable & Creative Living
A few weeks into the new school year, I realized that our family was struggling to adjust to the increased amount of homework that our third grader was getting. It was difficult to juggle the new after-school routine, homework, and our existing sports and music lessons. To help us stay on track, I created this Printable Homework Calendar. It has helped our family tremendously.
Organizing any part of our living or work areas can feel overwhelming. Keeping our office or home office organized usually feels more stressful because no one wants important tasks or paperwork to fall through the cracks. The purpose of being organized is to be able to find the things we need when we need them and then, hopefully, be more productive. I don’t know about you, but when I can get more things done with less stress, I’m able to spend time with the people I care about while enjoying life more. It also feels good to have a neat and attractive workspace. If this sounds good to you, check out my go-to 10 Office Organization Ideas and keep your office organized and clutter-free.
