For the most part, I can be realistic and not worry about a little mess. But clutter! No way, no how! I keep a collection in my closet of everything I want to give away. I add to it whenever I come across something we no longer use. I'm always going through drawers and closets, pulling out unused items. Adding them to the bags in the closet.
But.....every time I walk by the closet (or God forbid, open it!) I immediately feel stress bubbling up inside my body. Way too much stress. The same stress I feel when I know there's a drawer or closet that has been forgotten for awhile. I just know there's excess or clutter inside. Aaarrggghhh!!!
Goodwill picks up at our house about once a month. I always have plenty of bags and boxes for them. Sometimes, I put out so much stuff it looks like we're moving! This must mean I have a shopping problem, right? Maybe. But it also means we have two kids that grow quickly. It means I get a lot of things for free (from friends, from this blog, from my outside activities). It means my interests change.
And I can't and won't keep it all. Once Goodwill comes, I feel such a rush of relief. And then I find something that I no longer need/want.....and the cycle of stress returns.
I read the book Pretty Neat in less than a day. It's a quick read. And there are a great many tips and nuggets of wisdom inside. Lucky for you....one Suburban Jungle reader will win a copy of Pretty Neat.
But that's not all: One winner will be selected across all the winners on this blog tour (all the winners from each blog that reviewed Pretty Neat will be automatically entered) to receive a $200 same as cash Gift Card (Visa or AMEX) and $50 worth of Buttoned Up organizational products.

My biggest source of stress is a major lack of closet space in the master bedroom--as in, we have NONE! I share a closet with my 4 month old, and my husband uses our coat closet. Sooo annoying.
children! they have no concept of "put away what you get out"

My biggest source of organizational stress...my 4 children. I figure once they are a bit older I will be able to manage a bit better. Or at least I hope to be able to.
lanzaelizabeth77 at gmail dot com
My biggest source is stuff (mostly books) that I'm selling on Amazon. I don't want to mix them in with my other books, so they end up in a box in the corner of my office, and occasionally in an overflowing box, and then sometimes in a big pile surrounding an overflowing box...

That would have to be my dining table. It's where all of the school papers and homework goes. It's a total mess. I'd love a way to organize it all!

I keep different nuts, nails and screws in old glass spice jars so they stay together and I can see the size through the glass.

My biggest organizational (dis)stress is probably my son's bedroom. It was our storage room before he was born, and now, I still can't seem to get out of the habit of stashing everything in there. It's a complete and utter mess. :-P

Our 3rd bedroom is full of boxes and I just don't know what to do with it all! It's doubles of a lot of things from when I moved in from my apartment to my husband's house!

There isn't one specific thing, it's the whole. I have 3 kids and by time I can get one room clean and put together they have destroyed the rest of the house - :\ i need more organization items (dressers, toy bins, etc.)

My biggest source of organizational stress is my home office. My husband and I share it and it serves many purposes, so there are always different projects in progress and it seems like there is clutter all the time.

Our basement storage room is a disaster. Everything gets piled in there and (apparently) forgotten since nothing ever seems to move back out. Unfortunately it's "out of sight" and I never seem to get to sorting it out. mcgillrmcgill(at)charter(dot)net

My organization stress problem is putting stuff down when I get in and not putting it away right away, so there are things here and there causing clutter.

I'm organized in every area except paperwork. My old tax files, business records, etc., are a mess.
ewhatley at embarqmail dot com
My spouse is a horder, pack rat and loves clutter I have to sneak and throw stuff out after he leaves for work or he will pull it out of trash, hes so cheap and stingy and after 23 years of marriage and 3+ years of dating I'm ready to move out and be clutter free
I'm almost OCD about clutter, I TRY to keep everything in its place and organized. I have had to hid my stress to keep from pulling my hair out, he has 3 sheds, a screened in back porch, a utility trailer, our utility room and half the bedroom, half of the kitchen and all of his car(no one can ride with him because of all the stuff)he is getting worse the older he gets, he picks up stuff from the roadways, peoples garbage, garbage at work, to make items last for example ketchup he waters it down, he keeps every receipt,
basically the only room I can keep sort of organized is the living room
Thank you so very much for giving me a chance to be a winner
Thank you for all your time, effort and hard work

I hate the bathroom! Between towels, cleaning supplies, hair accessories, and hygiene products..I can't ever keep things organized!
The only way for me to keep things organized is to use tuperware containers. At least I've stopped losing my hairties!
I recently went back to school, and the stress from the amount of homework I have is partly because I am so disorganized!

My best organizational tip is to make a "to do" list - and don't ignore it! It also helps to make sure it's a manageable list of tasks, and not something so overwhelming that you just say "forget it!" and do something more fun.

My biggest organization headache is my hall closet. Each time I open the door I see new things added, like baseball, hats and other items which have to be gone through. I hate seeing all the winter items when Spring comes and dread even more having to sort everything out and throw it!
The one tip I have for organizing is have a box in each bedroom and when a clothes item is no longer needed or wanted put it in there. Once a month I take each one to Goodwill and put a new one in.

I need a neat way to store the clothes that are waiting for my youngest to wear. I have to dig through the whole tote when he goes up a size.
I get stressed when I clean and organize something and not three hours later, SOMEbody has put all kinds of stuff right there! Hey, it's a clean surface, so something HAS to be placed there. Ugh!

Org tip - If you borrow things or lend things or return items to the store occasionally (who doesn't?), keep a pretty box near the exit and put those things in there as you think of them. Next errand day, just pick up the box and everything you'll need is right there, ready to go.

My biggest problem is the lack of storage space outside. I have to keep everything inside and I just don't have encough storage for everything.
I have big tools in my kitchen cabinets!!
My biggest organization problem is all of our toys
My children undoing everything I do as soon as I do it and then making it worse.

I am always looking for new ways to stay organized! One of my best tips is "homework boxes" for the kids. I have baskets with their names on them to put all that paperwork that comes home. I can get to it when I am able rather than have it all thrust at me as they walk through the door :)
My biggest source of organizational stress would be "space" - sometimes not having enough!
