I definitely need help to “SIMPLIFY ME!” My 2011 resolution is to make a schedule (and stick to it) for the house. I am usually a “clean and do laundry when needed” kind of person, but I have a 3 month old and I am in desperate need of more routine and the structure it would offer to help me get everything done!
Aimee says
SIMPLIFY ME!
I’m going to simplify my life this year by undertaking a major home cleaning spree. I plan on going room by room and really evaluating all of the “stuff” to see what I need and what is just taking up space.
Jackie says
Simplify Me :)
Nikki Q says
Oh please – SIMPLIFY ME!
Jen N says
SIMPLIFY ME!
Our goal is just just get rid of every extraneous thing we don’t need anymore…and there’s a lot. Once that’s done, the organizing should be A LOT easier.
mel zeiger says
SIMPLIFY ME!!!
we have a 4 and 2 year old, so anything that would organize our house would be super great!! I also craft, but am crazy unorganized!
Erica R says
SIMPLIFY ME!!
Goals for 2010: I need to organize my home office, do some decluttering and organize digital files.
Becky says
“simplify me!” my previous comment didn’t show up… Just had my fourth baby…seriously need to declutter and find a place for everything and keep it in it’s place!
Melissa Irvin says
Please SIMPLIFY ME!
I’ve been feeling so claustrophobic this holiday season with so much STUFF that I am taking down the tree today. I love the tree, but I can’t take it any more! I think we need to find another spot for it next year or I will have a melt down! :(
Jessica Mumford says
SIMPLIFY ME!!!
For 2011, I hope to simplify my life by getting rid of meaningless things and replacing them with things that are meaningful (i.e. less television and more time to practice piano, guitar, and harp or read more!).
Yulia says
SIMPLIFY ME!
I just ordered a personalized calendar with all anniversaries and birthdays filled in. I hope it helps me avoid last minute gift shopping. I’d love to win the “It’s About Time: How To Have More Fun and Get More Done.” That sounds awesome.
Katie says
SIMPLIFY ME! I’m pretty good at simplifying my physical clutter and space, but I could use some help with time management and goal attainment!
Dayna says
SIMPLIFY ME!!!! Oh this is the perfect giveaway for me! I am 30 weeks pregnant and trying my hardest to get the house ready for baby, but so much has got to go to make room for the baby stuff. I want to simplify our house and our schedule, but its so overwhelming, I’m not sure how to start!!
Michelle says
Simplify me! I just moved into a small(er) space, and I need to maximize every last square inch!
Charisma says
SIMPLIFY ME!
In 2011 I’d like to streamline my life by getting our house organized and bring structure to my life with some weekly me time such as taking a pilates class and maybe a photography course to have fun while staying fit and broaden my knowledge and eye. I’d also like to find time to enjoy some date nights with the husband and to find activities in town to do with our baby Ella while balancing a clean, organized home and a part time job. I also would like to find a way to earn a supplemental income doing something creative I enjoy from home. That would be 3 birds in the hand for me, as I’d be home with Ella and get to be creative while making some money on the side that would hopefully lead to an expanding business or seed money to own a business when Ella starts school. This would definitely simplify our lives while making the most of our time.
Carol says
Simplify Me!
What a great contest. We are moving from a 2000 sq ft house to a 1000 sq ft house and we NEED to SIMPLIFY in a major way.
jenn says
SIMPLIFY ME!
im a very organized person that never stops making notes. this year im going to buy an organizer (strangely enough ive never had one) and keep all my lists and notes in there so i know what ive done and what i need to do without having to find a bunch of loose notes.
courtney says
SIMPLIFY ME!
In 2011, I want to create a “make 2011 great” list which will detail several of the goals I want to make happen. My life can get overcrowded with things that push out what I REALLY want to do, so my organization goal for 2011 is to actually achieve goals I set and decide what is most important and go for it!
Ashley P says
Simplify Me! My new house is a mess. I’ve got so much more space now and have no idea how to best organize it. I want to better organize our office, closets and kitchen to start.
Elena says
SIMPLIFY ME!
Planning to think more positively and not let negative thoughts “clutter” my outlook!
Lucy says
Simplify Me! I would like to organize in one book all of my recipes that I cut out of magazines and print from my favorite blogs, so that I don’t have to look through hundreds of recipes to find the one I want!
Becky Simoes says
SIMPLIFY ME! I’m looking to get all of our important personal, medical, vehicle, and household paperwork organized first and foremost It’s very frustrating when you need something for car insurance or whatever and you can’t find the right paperwork!
Ella says
SIMPLIFY ME! I am getting married in 2 (!!) days, and know that we will be getting lots of new’ stuff’ for our house as gifts. Our apartment is small, so my organizing goal for the new year is going to be figuring out the best way to store our things, and what older things need to be given away or sold as new things replace them.
Rachel says
SIMPLIFY ME!
We need an organized office space for sure. I need one for my grad school work and my hubby needs one for writing, bill paying, budgeting etc. (yes, he does those finance chores that I hate!). We have two rooms for offices which is awesome, but we are seriously lacking furniture! We’re looking forward to building lots of custom furniture to store all our stuff.
Johanna says
Oh, pretty please SIMPLIFY ME! My home is quite the mess (and after christmas it is even worse!) and it seems that every time I get one corner done and turn around, all other three corners just laugh at me with even more mess to take care of. Of course it helps that I am a quilter since we are the queens of fabric mess :)
Jules says
Simplify Me! I need to organize our paper files and consolidate 2 households into 1.
Abbie says
SIMPLIFY ME! Since having my son three months ago, I feel like my home looks like a tornado blew through. I go back to work soon and will need to find a balance… spending time with my family and keeping the house in order during my down time. I also have a side business that has taken a backseat to my full-time job. I’d love to turn my side business into something that can bring me to a point where I could make it my career. I’d love the workshops!!
Elizabeth says
Simplify me please! I want to go room by room and get my house decluttered and organized.

Sarah J says
SIMPLIFY ME! My fiance and I are moving in to an apartment together (and getting married) in 2011 and I would love to be able to move out of our current apartment and incorporate new wedding gifts into our new place in an organized way. I’m not sure if that’s possible, but I think I’m up for the challenge!
Christina S says
SIMPLIFY ME!!! Its like you’ve been reading my mind! My goal is to be uncluttered and more organized- home, mind, and body. Sounds pretty overwhelming. A little direction and instruction would be great!
Kristine says
SIMPLIFY ME!
We just got engaged on Christmas Eve (yay!) so we’re hoping to get married toward the end of the year.
In the meantime, our 2011 resolutions are to declutter (using your fabulous get-rid-of-100-things trick), downsize (way too much square footage for us and our two dogs) and get out of debt.
This will help be ready for our 2012 goals: buy a home and have a baby! :-)
Heather says
SIMPLIFY ME. O man it’s like you were reading my mind. My plan is to do a house purge. in a serious way. We have so many places that need organization and alot of decluttering. (not sure that’s a word…lol)

Anna says
SIMPLIFY ME!
I am obsessed with organizing and decluttering when it comes to my home, my closet, or my desk. But my life could definitely use some simplifying and organizing. Mostly, I’d like to figure out how to find the time in my life to do everything I want to do, other than work!
Ann Marie says

We’re moving this year, so I’ll be starting from scratch in a new house!! I need my kids toys/crafts/clothes simplified and organized…it seems to overtake the house!!
JenAHM says
Simplify Me!
I am having our first baby in April, and now that Christmas is over, we are going to be in major clean out mode of our small two bedroom home. I know that if I don’t have some major organization done prior to giving birth I’m going to feel like I’m drowning once the baby is here. I’m getting all tense just thinking about it…..
Tricia says
SIMPLIFY ME!
Well, we’re hoping to simplify A LOT in our life in 2011. We’re jumping on the Dave Ramsey bandwagon and reorganizing our finances. We’re hoping to declutter our house in January (early spring cleaning?) and give lots and lots away to Goodwill. We want to not stack our schedule so much and have moments for spontaneous fun. :)
Nicole from Richmond! says
Simplify me!”
Currently working on putting all things in their rightful place; shoes in closets, toys in rooms, cell phones in charging station, etc. However any help is welcome!
Anna Gould says
SIMPLIFY ME, PLEASE!
I want to start off 2011 being organized so I can do my best work and be successful at achieving my goals in 2011.
Amanda Honaker says
Simplify mio! I took the opportunity (like you two) during a recent move to pare down… anything not used/worn/displayed in the last year was history! Passed most of my clothing items on to fam and donated the rest at the local Goodwill. Plan for next year is to continue to be…well, “simple-minded”, if you will, especially where new purchases are concerned! Trying to avoid re-cluttering and will still have my eye out for things that could “go”.
Allison says
SIMPLIFY ME!
This year I plan on developing systems and rituals around tasks that I regularly do to make them more efficient and enjoyable, so I don’t procrastinate as much.
