TRIVIA TODAY - Wednesday, January 16, 2013
Greetings Infomaniacs, After the Getting Organized program I told you about the other day, now I just want to reorganize my whole condo! In this regard, a useful tip the presenter offered is to use hanging jewelry and shoe organizers for more than just jewelry and shoes.
She said she hangs a shoe organizer near the front door in the winter and sticks hats, gloves, scarves, etc. in there so they all stay in one place. Jewelry organizers can be used for holding items such as nails and screws, or if you have kids, they are useful for small toys like matchbox cars.
She also mentioned that workers can waste anywhere up to 45 minutes a day looking for items in their office. She suggested creating a place for everything, and taking the few minutes each day to make sure everything is put back where it belongs. It sounds simple, but it's often something we can overlook!
Enjoy!

No Super Bowl team has played the game in its home stadium.
