Moving or cleaning can be super stressful. No matter what age you are it is good to know how to be organized to help life be less stressful. Here are 5 tips everyone should know on how to make your life less stressful.

Keep a planner.

This is a big one for me, I am that person who can be kind of forgetful and late to things. Keeping a planner helps a lot, you can have a physical planner you can write in or you can just put things on your phone. It helps you keep things on track and keeps you organized so you know when and where things are happening or when stuff is due.

Label things.

I used to think there was no reason to label things but boy was I wrong. When you keep like things together in a container or draw it helps to have a label to know what you are putting where when it comes down to trying to find something.

Organize things by item or color.

This is a big thing with clothes, especially in your closet. For me, I organize everything in my closet by the type of item: dress, business/dress clothes, tub tops, tank tops, short sleeves, long sleeves, then jackets, and sweatshirts. This helps to make things easy when it comes to switching out clothes each season and also knowing where everything in my closet is.

Use storage bins.

I CANNOT preach enough how much of space saver storage bins are. Especially when it comes to having a lot of clothes but not enough drawer space, consider under the bed rolly containers. They are great to put each season's clothes away or to just keep extra sweatshirts or blankets hidden and out of the way. Also using things like the 3 or 5 drawers Sterilite containers is always helpful for organizing the area under your desk or bed or sink.

Get rid of stuff that is taking up space.

One space saver and way to organize things is to just get rid of things. If you haven't touched an item of clothes or accessory or device in over a year it is time to say GOODBYE to it. You don't need things to take up space that can be used for other things.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
