Today we are giving away…
A 30-minute Phone Consultation
with Cari Pemberton
from The Clutter Cutters
It’s a brand new year. Time to get organized, right? From Cari Pemberton with The Clutter Cutters:
Getting organized makes the top 10 list of New Year’s resolutions consistently. Are you tired of hunting for car keys and schoolwork? Are you embarrassed when someone drops by unexpectedly? Do you spend money buying things you know you already have – if only you could find them?
It’s like she’s reading my mind!
My husband and I recently organized and renovated our garage. It was a lengthy and difficult process that involved much compromising on both sides. Nick has many hobbies, including woodworking and rebuilding a 1965 Jeep. Those two hobbies require a lot of space, however, and we only have one garage (which I insist on parking in!). He just didn’t have the time, money, or space to pursue both hobbies right now. Finally, he decided to sell the Jeep and convert half of the garage into a woodshop. We sold and donated piles of stuff and added shelving to keep our useful possessions organized.
There’s one little detail I’ve neglected to mention: it has taken us 5 YEARS to reach this point! I’m not kidding! Imagine if we had called Cari 5 years ago for a phone consultation. In 30 minutes, she could have listened to both sides of the situation (Nick’s desire to pursue two big hobbies and my desire to park both our cars in the garage) as we worked out a compromise. She then could have offered advice on making our garage a more functional space. We may have even discussed some financial suggestions; perhaps to sell the Jeep and save the proceeds for a future “project car” when more time and space is available. She could have helped us put together a realistic time line so that we could track our progress toward our goals.
Don’t make the same mistake we made: call Cari TODAY!
