I am a very particular person when it comes to my house. Yes, my cans all face the same way and are organized by type. I used to be the same way about laundry. While I still hang almost all of our clothes up and have them all organized in closets I was able to save myself some grief by letting go of perfectly folding items that no one really sees. I stopped folding certain items completely. I have large bins in my linen closet for towels and a small laundry basket for washclothes. My kids can sort the towels and put them in the bins. I also have drawers designated for underwear and pajamas. Those items are just put in the designated drawer. So simple, my 5 year old can do it! Hi there,

We have 4 TV's and when the "change" to High def occure I had misplaced my coupon and could not afford the 40.00 "box" thing. (RN not working due to type 1 diabetes diag.) Anyway, kids said "if we get TV all we do is veg and watch it" STRANGE I know but true. So now we live with netflix via wii, 1 computer that got a virus so have to use it on "safe mode with internet" basically get all of the web sites without sound. Ever watched Glee on closed caption? So now the kiddies watch a TV show on the internet but, have to read the closed captions. Started thinking.. Wow they have to speed read and see video. Hmmm multi-task while reading? That actually sounds educational . I know this is truly crazy but working very well!!! Giving up TV was not fun.
