The Sidetracked Sisters' Happiness File
It's out of print, but this book is still wildly popular with SHEs.
In the past, I've simply told people to look out for it at garage sales
and used book stores, but now there's a better way: get Amazon to do
a search for you. It's risk-free (if you don't like the price, you don't
have to buy it) and the service is pretty wonderful.
Organizing from the Inside Out:
The Foolproof System for Organizing Your Home, Your Office and Your Life
Amazon says this about it: "Julie Morgenstern has written
an organizing book that covers a new way of looking at the task of organizing
effectively without labeling or blaming the person behind the lack of
organization. Rather, she says, people who don't organize just never
learned how to organize, through no fault of their own--after all, it's
not a skill that's taught in school. That said, she gets down to work
helping you figure out an organizing system that will really work for
you, not a system based on cookie-cutter filing concepts or special
storage units."

and it adds something to your life.
