Right brained chaos

[messybessy]

While at the Library I found a different type of organization book that really speaks to me. It describes me perfectly and is a good read in a comical sort of way. It shows me how to control the clutter without it controlling me. I think this book will be a great compliment to the SHED or a stand alone with a different chioce.

Thanks for the recommendation, Bessy! There are a good many creative, right brain people here who might benefit from looking at this.

that would be me! I fully intend to check it out as soon as I can afford it (I don't yet have a library membership)...I wonder if it's sold in ebook format???

I am litterally laughing out loud!
I went to the Amazon site, and decided to read the reviewer's comments who gave the book only 1 star. Here is a quote:

There are many tips that feel contrived. Paint or write a poem about your to-do list? Turn your chores into a board game? Do people really do these things? Some of the suggestions feel like a desperate attempt by Silber to seem uber-creative when in reality, they make the book appear silly and worthless.

There goes our dice game, board game method! Silly and worthless...
btw, My daughter thinks it's silly too, but she loves me anyway.
... I'm still laughing.

Was this helpful for things besides paper? From the reviews it seemed like it was about office organization and paying bills on time.

Its helpful for just about anything. There is a section for pack rats who have everything.

I have read this book and prefer this book below much better for right-brained thinkers:
