Organize the Whole Shebang

Back to Me... getting my groove on

I had a coffee date with myself... I spent the time identifying what I'd like to do this school year...

I brought along one of my cute paper journals [because i'm a complete + utter sucker for cute paper products] and then drew a few lines and began brainstorming.

I divided my page into 3 columns with the heading
Self | Home | Endeavors. It's a play on my whole Shebang philosophy... I believe we juggle 3 areas of our lives and I gave them the cute SHE acronym ;)

I then brainstormed what was important to me and items I wanted to focus on this school year... Items that I'd like to add to my life, Projects that need to be addressed. 

If you don't have a cute journal,don't fret- I created this cute doc for you to print out and use: Download Shebang she list

 

After my brainstorm I created 3 pages, each with their own heading: Self, Home, Endeavors. On each page I went a little bit deeper determining some of the steps or specifics of what I meant or needed to do. Here's what my Home page looked like. [it may not make sense to you... but it does to me!]

 

Now I'm ready to revisit my SHE ROUTINES and add these items to my daily + weekly + monthly routines. I've chatted before about my SHE ROUTINES, these are what keep me sane. And since Summer throws my routines to the curbside it's time to get my groove back on. Time to revisit + recreate my routines. Time to get + stay sane! More about that here.

"THE SHE-IT-KIT"

The S.H.E. IT KIT [aka clutter-control kit] is your secret weapon for staying clutter free. I believe clutter (aka the C-word, which I like to avoid all together) is just a pile of decisions you have yet to make… and that’s okay because you were busy living life. I get it... I'm there with ya.

My philosophy is to make it as easy as possible to clear the clutter. It’s quite possible to create this kit with items you may already have. However, I confess that I am much more apt to actually get excited about a project if it involves functional + fabulous products!

 To create your own SHE-IT-KIT you'll need:

- 3 totes [see above] or paper/plastic bags work too.

- Download The Shebang Organizing signs + print them out. I suggest sliding them into sheet protectors so they stay pretty :) Download Organizing_signs_general_use

- binder clips to attact signs to totes

- a timer

- some good music

 

My New SHE Routines!

I'm thrilled that I finally hunkered down and got my personal SHE Routines revised to fit my current lifestyle... Have you done yours yet? I feel so much more in control... whoohoo!

It doesn't take very long + I give you the template so you can cut + paste your own info.

Time to create new SHE routines

I just posted this over on my 'Putting on my Big Girl Panties' blog.. but wanted to also post it here.

My groove's been thrown off... It typically happens this time of year (and post summer break) because the kidlets have been underfoot and I can't keep my life in order because I'm too busy playing cruise director. But my groove has been off since last March when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. #BAM #lifeshappens

I thrive on routines... simple little routines that keep me sane and keep me from yelling at my family. A couple of years ago I created Shebang 101 to help my clients (and me) get it + keep it together. I've decided I need to get my routines back in order- it's time.

I'm going to work on updating my routines to fit my current lifestyle... Would  love to have you join me if you're feeling the need to get your groove back on.
