Thank you for that. I think you are right that different stages in life allow for different degrees of organization. Now that I have one child out of the house and living on her own, I am realizing that life changes and so does the time free to be organized. Hope - yeap, that's what I got from this post. divadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12185277600611550619noreply@blogger.com
