Product Description

Peggy and Pam were two desperately disorganized sisters. They started each day with the best of intentions, but they never made it because they were "Sidetracked Home Executives" caught in the disorder of misplaced priorities, half-completed chores, and undirected energies - two smart ladies who'd never used their heads when coping with their homes.

So, they analyzed their lives and set up a rotating card system that scheduled their chores on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. With a combination of the sympathy of a fellow former slob, and the firm resolution of a for-your-own-good mother, they tell listeners how they too can get organized.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

First Sentence
We wanted to call this chapter "The Way We Were," but, since that's a famous song, we figured we'd have to get permission from the writer and we didn't know his address or even his name. Read the first page

I read this back when we bought our first home. It really helped. And it's funny, too. We've moved and share a house with our parents. The whole place needs reorganizing.... I've got to have another copy of this book. I must have given my first copy away to a friend in need. I highly recommend the read and Hey... do it. It works!

This was entertaining reading with real help as the goal. As a homemaker, I have desperately needed steering in the organizational department since I was NOT born organized ! It got me going, kept me interested, and is truly a working plan. If you need to declutter, get your house under control, have a real working housekeeping plan... this is the book for you !!

If you suffer from CHAOS (can't have anyone over syndrome) or IGAD (I've got all day), this is the book for you! Pam Young and Peggy Jones tell the story of their search for organization and how they found it with a 3x5 card file system. Written from the viewpoint of a SHE (Sidetracked Home Executive), they blend humor with down to earth advice on getting your life together. They refer to themselves as reformed slobs and make you feel that if they can do, anyone can. Their system is easy to set up and implement--although for a SHE, it's not always easy to follow. But with the encouragement found in this book, it makes the process fun. I highly recommend it!!
