Girl Farts Book Club?
Is anyone interested in reading and discussing this homekeeping/organizational book with me?
I'm guessing Courtney would be game for this sort of thing, but Courtney's already pretty damned organized. Her input and participation would be welcome, of course, but I'm wondering if there's anyone out there at about my level (or worse - ha!) who'd like to read along and discuss what's working/not working.
I'm... relatively organized. I've been far worse. I could be better. I have problems with clutter, largely borne of "deferred decision-making."
Any takers?
Edited to Add: There's a website that supports the book (or, actually, I think the site came first) here.

Yesterday, I took out my sewing machine to whip up a quick blanket and pillow for The Bug. The sewing machine I'd never used before (it was my Grandma's). I realized I had put the box of stuff that goes with it, including the instruction manual, away somewhere out of The Bug's reach. And I have no idea where that somewhere is. I have searched high and low, but still haven't figured out what I did with it.
So yeah, I could do with some getting back on track. Maybe I can get organized again when we move... (stop lauging, it could happen!).
Post here when you've purchased a copy of the book.
I added it to my books section, so it's easy to find.
L still has a ginormous pile of books and possessions in a garage in Portland, due to touch down in early 2007. Our apartment is blessed, yet I still have no fricking clue where it's all going to go. I'd like to contribute a little more than bringing him cider when he goes all handyman and starts building shelves.
Also? I spent 15 minutes this morning tearing the joint apart looking for a magazine that doesn't even exist.
Yeah.
(I'll also recommend GETTING THINGS DONE to you, if you haven't read it already. Great for project management.)
My primary organization challenge is my inability to throw things away. I like to keep things for sentimental reasons, and then wind up with a bunch of useless crap that I periodically have to get rid of, or boxes full of shiny things that I can't even identify offhand.
I will join but I'm nerd I am going to interlibrary loan it.
