Time Savers

• Dejunk: Managing clutter takes too much time. Divide as much as you can into three piles: junk, charity and Twilight Zone. Get rid of the first two now, and store the third until you decidewhether or not to keep.
• Remove temptation:
  If you pile clutter on a table near a door, get rid of the table. Then you are more likely to put things where they belong.
• Go to the mat: Use only one entry door into your home. Put an Astroturf mat on the outside and a sturdy nylon mat inside. It's amazing how much dirt they catch.
• Dust: Change furnace filter and replace vacuum bags monthly. Do not miss vents when you dust.
• Use the right tools: Cotton diapers are great for most job, but there are creative tools: pet hair comes off upholstery fast with a slightly damp sponge. Wear cloth gloves to clean and wipe those miniblinds by hand.
