1. 12 MONTHS TO SIMPLICITY - THE DREADED CLOSET
It's back to school time and whether you are
going back to school or not, it seems like this
is a
great time of year to clean out your closets.
I can just hear some of you saying, "I wear
everything
in my closets and I'm not parting with anything!"
But you know it's time to purge when:
* Half of the items in your closet are from a
decade that starts with 19__.
* You can barely fit an empty hanger in because
the
closet is so full.
* You take one item down off of a shelf and
23 others fall out with it.
* You have more clothes than days of the year.
* You can supply a millipede with shoes.
These are only a few red flags that indicate
that it is time to clear your closets and start
fresh for the fall.
It's time to be brutally honest with yourself.
Do you really need all of the clothing that you
have? Can someone else benefit from clothes that
have shrunk since you last put them in the closet?
Do you really think you will ever fit into the sizes
in your closet? I want you to be brutally honest.
Here's what you do. Set aside a day to go through
all of your clothes and accessories. Pick a number
of seasons not worn as the deal breaker. (Ex. If
you
haven't had it on in 1 season, donate it.)
Try stuff on to see if it is STILL uncomfortable.
The comfort level usually will not change. Toss
worn out items. Get rid of items no longer in
style. (I know it will come back, but who wants
to use up closet space for 20 years until it does?)
Is the space in your closet being used wisely?
If not, visit www.easytrack.com for some great
closet design ideas. They are wonderful to work
with and will take your closets from crammed to
organized. They can help you DOUBLE the capacity
of your closets! Please mention Kreamer Connect
when shopping there.
Here's to closets you can't wait to open!

3. IN CLOSING -- SELF-IMPROVEMENT MONTH
September is Self-Improvement month and a great
time
to take a look at yourself. What would you like
to
improve in your life?
Do you want to quit procrastinating?
Do you want to decrease the clutter in your life?
Do you want to have more time with your family?
Do you want to quit running around in a rush all
the time?
Do you want a home that is welcoming to guests?
Do you want to act on your hobby that you have
neglected for the last eighteen years?
What do you want that will make your life better?
September is the time to do it...and by the way,
September 3 is "Do It Day" so stop procrastinating
and improve your life!
Good luck :-)
Here's to simplifying your life!
Until October,
Patty
