I’ve got another great giveaway to tell you about today. As many of you already know I’m a huge fan of Professional Organizer Aby Garvey from Simplify 101. She runs amazing online workshops all geared towards helping you get organized. Aby has a new workshop starting next Tuesday, April 21st called Organize Your Paper Clutter that will be run over a period of six weeks. In addition the workshop will remain open one additional week, for a total of seven weeks of content, instructor and community access.

Here is a bit more information for you:
Paper, paper everywhere! That paper mountain growing on your countertop represents a loss of freedom, a loss of control, and a nagging feeling in your gut that something important isn’t getting attended to. Your paper, and the feelings it creates, makes it hard to relax, focus or even have fun.
Here’s the good news: there is a better way! With the right paper organizing systems in place—those created with you, your paper, and your home in mind—you can free yourself from paper clutter and the stress that comes along with it. In Organize Your Paper Clutter, you’ll learn a step-by-step process on how to decide if you need a piece of paper (and for how long!) and how to organize it so you’ll find it again right when you need it! Your piles (and your stress!) will be replaced by organizing systems you love, and feelings of confidence, relief and peace of mind!
Specifics include:
- Create an action file and mail handling system.
- Set up your own household reference binder similar to the simplify 101 Command Central Binder.
- Get strategies for handling school papers and kids artwork.
- Learn what paper you need to shred, what paper you need to keep, and how long you need to keep it.
- Set up and use a tickler file.
- Learn the best ways to organize and store each type of paper in your home, so you can find it again right when you need it.
Aby would love to give away one of those coveted workshop seats to one of you, a prize valued at $65.00! And all you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post before Monday afternoon (April 20th) at 12:00 pm PST. Although it’s not a requirement, please feel free to tell us which area of paper organization you struggle with the most.
Good luck!

This giveaway is now over. The winner is Le Anne of Digging for Treasure!
For those of you that didn’t win but would like to purchase a t-shirt of your own, LTDchix is offering a 15% discount off your purchase PLUS free shipping until April 24th. Use coupon code orgjunkie at checkout.
I have to tell you this was such a fun and easy review to do. Have you ever heard of LTDchix? It stands for Living The Dream chix and it is the company of, Nina Frye and Cindi Schmitzer. Two moms who, despite the chaos and tough times that parenting can be, are “Living The Dream” and wouldn’t change a thing.
To convey that line of thinking LTDchix sells a line of T-shirts that feature super fun graphics that all moms can relate to. Shirts that really express what we all experience on a daily basis.
Take for example the Shopping Mom:

or the Cooking Mom:

Are you seeing the picture now? These graphics just crack me up because I can TOTALLY relate! Which mom couldn’t? I had the opportunity to sample the Multi-Tasking Mom t-shirt (below) which says volumes in just one picture. I swear it’s me and my three kiddos.

These graphics make for some awesome t-shirts which will surely get people talking. Shirts come in a variety of styles including long and short sleeve, fitted and loose.


I have the sherbert one you see pictured above and love it. I will proudly wear my t-shirt wherever I go announcing to the world that I’m living the crazy often overwhelming lack of sleep dream
LTDchix is giving away one Mult-Tasking Mom t-shirt today to one of my readers. You’ll be able to choose from the two different styles (fitted or loose) and two colors (sherbert or yellow haze) as shown above. Simply leave a comment by Thursday, April 16th at 7:00 pm PST telling me which “MOM” is your favorite…there are many more to see than I’ve listed above including the Laundry Mom and the Working Mom to name a few. Good luck trying to pick just one
Also I wanted to let you know that LTDchix is offering, for this week only, FREE SHIPPING on all their shirts. Don’t miss out!
