By Debbie Williams
I purchased this book in hopes that I could once again take control of my clutter. I used to be very organized but as life became hectic and more demanding I lost control of the clutter. With two teens and two dogs living at home I could clean and an hour later my home looked like a typhoon had hit. I own and operate a home-based business and I homeschool my children so I needed to find a way to reorganize my home and life so I could complete my daily tasks and still have a little free time.
Debbie Williams offers simple, easy to do basic ideas to help gain control of our clutter, manage our time more effectively and to set priorities. She offers ways to conquer everyday clutter from paper, toys, and even clothes. She shows us how to organize the different rooms in our home including our kitchen and bathroom.
Compared to Mom Management, where Tracy Lyn Moland teaches about managing our personal goals and taking “Mom Time”, Home Management 101 helps us organize our homes and keep it that way.
The author did a great job offering tips and ideas for people who have never been organized and don’t know where to start. I found that since I used to be organized, I already knew many of the tips she offered although there were a few that had a new spin on them. I think what I needed was something more motivational as opposed to this “how to” book. So if you have the basics of organization down this may not be the book for you.
