Great post, Melissa…you were on fire with that one. I tried Cozi and just could not get into it, loving my MomAgenda, but need the electronic spouse connection, so am going to bite the bullet and do Google, too. Makes sense as I use gmail. Love the SimpleMom blog, what a resource! And am going to try Pear next week. Container store also does some cute strapping baskets that we’ve used for toys and storage. We just recently upgraded to an IKEA toy storage system for our living/dining area and my son is doing really well with it. My husband is the king of plugs and cords, too, btw. Drives me bonkers. Found one today running from the front of our minivan’s (husband-installed) Sirius radio receiver, under the floormats and wound around the back of the back seat. Oy vey! So, since I’m too pooped to blog these days, how about a post on organizing the family car? Or coralling your organizationally-challenged spouse’s things without bruising their ego?

Sounds like you’ve got a great plan there.

Great minds think alike!!

I started using Pear Budget a few months ago, via Simple Mom (whom I also adore!!). In fact, I just finished updating our expenses and planning next month’s budget. LOVE IT!!!

May you find your life filled with the simplicity and organization you desire, Melissa…
