Green Cleaning Through the Seasons: Part Two-- The Kitchen


In a previous week we began a new series entitled: "Green Cleaning Through the Seasons."  To start this series, we began with the office.  If you missed this great launching point, click "Organize my Work!" and get linked to the nuts and bolts of why we need to begin here and how. 
This week we are heading to the kitchen!

If we were to take a survey of the top ten New Year's Resolutions individuals make, one of the Top Ten would be—eat healthier!  Eating healthy on a consistent basis is best done by eating at home where you have greater control over the ingredients used in your meals.  Eating healthy meals at home are also less expensive than eating out.  Changing our eating habits will reveal changes we need to make in our food storage areas and refrigerators.  
To advance this resolution, we need to get our kitchen in shape!  Let's get to work…

Organize my Work!


The first month of a new year marks new beginnings!  We are embarking on a new cleaning series: "Green Cleaning Through the Seasons."  This series will address specific areas to green clean within a particular season as well as how to more efficiently organize that space.  Since January falls in the winter season, we will start off with what you areas to prioritize in the winter months.  There is no better place to get started organizing and green-clean sprucing up than in the office!
How often have you become distracted and lost productive work time?  How many times have you misplaced an important invoice or document due to your lack of organization?

January is the perfect month to get your business off on the right foot.  Whether you have to commute to the office or simply head to another room in your home to start your work day, beginning with organizing your office, makes the most sense.  A few top benefits of a green cleaned, organized office are: more productivity, more fiscal responsibility, less time spent preparing for tax filing.
So…let's get started…

Creating a Simpler Holiday: Practical Gift-Giving!


 You keep your home green cleaned and simplified and now it is Christmas…   Are you ready for "stuff" to re-enter your home?   How much "stuff" are you purchasing to fill your family and friends' homes? 
Why do we, as a society, throw the switch ON and over-spend and over-indulged when it comes to gifts at Christmas? 

Two words…
Habits. Expectations.
