House Keeping Advice

I don't know where I read it, but this is one of my favorite house-keeping tips. Store things where you actually disrobe them. What? Well, where do you always take off your watch? Keep a little box or tray there. Where do you naturally throw dirty clothes? Put your laundry basket there. Seriously, I recently read of a woman whose husband takes off his clothes (for the most part) in the living room - so, instead of fighting the habit - she put a laundry basket there. I keep a box on my desk for my earrings and hair things. Then I have one in my bedroom and one in the bathroom. Seems silly - but it's better than having one place and little piles everywhere else. And yes, sometimes I have to hunt for something - but it's in one of three places.
