PronounsShe/her
Do you consider yourself a "morning person," a "night owl," or somewhere in between?Morning person
What are the trouble spots in your daily routine or your family’s routines? In other words, where do you find your habits and routines breaking down on a regular basis?My desk always looks a mess after I've worked at it. I put in 30 second time-outs in which I put things back in their places several times a day - except for papers I've been working on. These papers and random notes I find unpleasant to deal with and I tend to procrastinate on it. This makes my desk look messy about 80% of the time.
What aspects of your home (the size, the layout, the contents, the organization of those contents, other household members, etc.) either contribute to or detract from your ability to cultivate and execute productive and useful routines?I have a place for just about every item and I keep frequently used or important items easily accessible. This way, I can get things done very quickly and I hardly ever need to search for things. An example: When a friend who was house sitting my apartment needed a certain, seldomly used document, I could tell him "Its in the top right hand drawer of my desk, on the left side up front." He found the document immediately and he was impressed.

Oh Lord won't you give me a Mercedes Benz... nah, I'd prefer a Clutter Fairy wand that turns the house sparkling clean in a split second! I promise, I'll make it a daily routine to use it :o)
