I get mad at myself for "letting it go". I usually just throw everything on the bed or couch and clean the floor. Once I see the floor looking nice, I seem to get a little out of control and can't stop cleaning until the couch and bed looks nice. I should try this. I go from room to room all the time. I should have something in my hand from now on. I'll just pretend I am takin it to its 'home' lol. I get really cranky when the house is messy. I get mad at myself for “letting it go”.

Actually I do the SAME thing. But only at the end of the day. I take a basket with me and go around the house. Whatever misplaced item I see in the house goes to that basket. Either I fill the basket with misplaced items or I empty the basket when I go to the appropriate place. When I walk from room to room I can empty the whole basket. Thanks very much for your tip Great tip! Actually I do the SAME thing. But only at the end of the day. I take a basket with me and go around the house.

My problem is I don't pick up stuff that I don't have a place for. Odds and end items that have just come into my house. Should I have a "odds n ends" shelf?

And I love the idea of the quick tidy before bedtime. My house is so little that it would take no time at all! I’ve really been trying to put this one into practice lately.
