Six O'Clock Scramble
Planning family meals can be one of the most stressful activities for any parent. That’s why I love The Six O’clock Scramble, an online dinner planning service. Each week, subscribers receive an email with 5 fast, healthy, kid-tested recipes and an organized shopping list. Additional features include your own recipe box to save family favorites and a searchable database that allows you to customize weekly dinner plans. My boys have loved nearly every recipe I’ve ever made from The Scramble, and I’ve been a devoted subscriber since 2007.
Clutter Diet
While it is great to have me come work with you in person, The Clutter Diet is a wonderful and affordable alternative, and can also provide great follow-up support if you have already worked with me. This innovative online program offers a weekly "menu plan" of organizing projects, multi-media tutorials, articles, and other great tools. In addition, subscribers have unlimited access to expert Professional Organizers and measure their "clutter loss" with weekly weigh-ins! The program offers a terrific mix of education, motivation, and support.
Charity Deductions
One of the best things about donating items to charity is that you can take a tax deduction. But while most charitable organizations will give you a receipt, they don't generally place a value on your donation. You want to take a fair market deduction, but have it be supportable should you be audited.
CharityDeductions.com is an online source which does just that for subscribers. As a member, you can enter all of your donations and search for fair market value, but also track and summarize your cash and non-cash donations, making reporting easy at the end of the year.
Catalog Choice
While we all enjoy shopping from home via catalog from time to time, it is easy to become overwhelmed with the sheer volume of incoming catalogs. Keeping the recycling bin handy and quickly tossing unwanted catalogs can help prevent them from becoming clutter, but it is even better to stop repeat and unwanted catalog mailings at their source. Catalog Choice is a free service that allows you to decide what you receive. Use it to reduce your mailbox clutter and you can help save resources at the same time by reducing consumption of paper.
Delphi Vital Information Manager
Delphi Vital Information Manager is a unique and comprehensive service that allows you to store financial, medical, legal, personal, and other critical information on a secure server, so that you can access your records and data any time, from anywhere. Having all your key family and household information organized and being able to retrieve it quickly and efficiently greatly reduces stress in emergency situations and dramatically improves your ability to care for yourself, your children, or your aging parents. This is a great product for the new millennium. To receive the service for $60/year instead of the advertised price of $96/year, enter the code "G0025-0007" in the "Affiliated institution code" box on the subscription page.
