Especially, for me right now, the involving the family. I found I RESENTED the cleaning of the clutter when it wasnt my mess (good or bad. right or wrong. it was how I felt) and that resentment spilled over into other areas of my life and it wasnt healthy.

I'm disorganized in the house, but I've made a habit of keeping the car clean. Most stores such as walmart have garbage cans near the entrance, as do gas stations, etc. Every time I stop, I look for garbage I can get rid of. Keep a few extra shopping bags in the car to help. Also, I use the time I'm waiting in the car to pick kids up from activities to clean out the car; I stuff the garbage bags full of junk- one to pitch, one to take into house; I pull the floor mats out and shake them out. I keep a package of wet wipes in the glove compartment for kids sticky hands; they also work well for cleaning up dust around the center console and sticky door handles. Love your posts.
