I’ve enjoyed and learned much from your Youtube channel AND just bought a lot of your microfiber cloths. Excellent quality, for sure.

Something I learned years ago about organizing and containing things but have yet to hear you or any of the many other Youtube channels mention when teaching organization skills, is this:

1. Determine the volume of things to be contained; 2. The size of space in which it will be located; 3. Before choosing containers.

Simple 3 steps that no one calls out. How many times I know I have purchased containers that I really like, but the size isn’t right to either contain all the stuff or fit in the space in which it needs to go in.

You do such a fine job of systematizing your cleaning methods. Seems like this might be good to add.

Lastly, I’ve adopted a phrase I operate by but don’t remember where I picked it up: “Sort by kind and alphabetize!” A fun addage for those who don’t know where to start.

Wishing you continued success in the new year!
A faithful subscriber,
Jen

I use stainless straws, and glass bottles which have a plastic outer cover to prevent breakage if dropped. I also take my own bags to the grocery store. I really enjoy your videos, so keep them coming.
