With summer fast approaching, I’ve been thinking about what makes my life easier.  One of the things I do before going on vacation is to make sure my house and office are de-cluttered and organized.  So, when I return (this goes for weekends and/or weeks), all I have to do is unpack, laundry, and go through the mail.  It’s hard enough coming home after having fun, so why not make the transition back to reality as easy and smooth as possible?
