I am horrible with organization. I try but am usually overwhelmed.

Do you mean on a daily basis? I have used an appointment book but then would forget...

What helps this household is using white boards. We keep one for the work schedules and one on the fridge for daily reminders. We also have a big calendar that covers the whole year and put down important dates. Anyone can forget or be confused so it is good to have it down for everyone to see.

Yeah, this is for families but it it's all I got!

Oh, and to get rid of things right away that you don't want/need. It will give you clutter and ruin your organized situation.

I also love to keep a pen and paper handy. If I remember something, I write it down. Or, if I have a few moments I'll pull it out and start doodling and things will come out that I have forgotten.

Good luck!
