A great paper organizing strategy is to create an area in your home where frequently used and current information is stored. This area can be as small as the corner of a kitchen counter or as large as a desk with drawers and wall shelving or cabinets. Most importantly, it should be in the most convenient area of the house.
This is the grand central location for the family calendar, a phone, the incoming paper box and the household notebook that were described in the previous blog posts. In it is kept the schedules, current mail, phone messages, and important contact information. Other inportant documents that are used often or needed in case of emergency should be included. Once established, everyone will know where the information they need is kept.

I agree! Once the family knows where everything goes, it is so much easier on each member of the family!
