March 2023 Organizing Checklist by Maria Gracia https://www.getorganizednow.com My NEW March 2023 Organizing Checklist provides an organizing TO DO for every day of the month... ____ Mar 1 Organize a section of your pantry. ____ Mar 2 Weed out old scarves, hats, belts, ties, and other accessories you never use. ____ Mar 3 Dust the area around one of your home’s computers. Don’t forget to dust the cords as well. ____ Mar 4 Clear five files off of your computer that you no longer need. ____ Mar 5 Get yourself a new microwave heating pad for those days when you want to sooth pain or cramps, or just need a little bit of extra warmth. I just bought a heating pad shaped as a cat for my college daughter. She absolutely loves it! ____ Mar 6 Dentist’s Day. Would your dentist approve of the way you are taking care of your teeth? It’s a good day to be sure you’re doing everything you can for your pearly whites. ____ Mar 7 Declutter a bedroom drawer. ____ Mar 8 Name something you’re doing right now that is taking you way too long. Make it a priority of yours today to figure out how to make the task or process easier. ____ Mar 9 Dust one of your ceiling fans or light fixtures. ____ Mar 10 Assess your home router. Is it still working well. We recently needed to replace our router and we found one we really like. Want a clutter-free home once and for all? Check out my Goodbye Clutter resource!

Begin or continue working on your family tree. ____ Mar 12 Get rid of a shortcut on your computer or laptop that you have no use for. (If it’s a program, uninstall the program first. Then, get rid of the shortcut.) ____ Mar 13 Move the sofa so you can vacuum under it. Use furniture sliders and/or get someone to help if it’s too heavy to move yourself. ____ Mar 14 Sort through a pile or box of paper. Recycle as much of it as you can. Then act on the paper and/or file it away as applicable. ____ Mar 15 Organize your stash of art supplies (crayons, paint, etc.). ____ Mar 16 Start sorting through your coat closet. Can your heavier outerwear be put into storage or moved to the sides so your spring items (rain coat, spring jacket, etc.) are front and center? ____ Mar 17 St. Patrick’s Day. Bake a homemade loaf of Irish Soda Bread. Share some with a friend or neighbor. ____ Mar 18 Get rid of old fridge food or anything in there that you and your family are not going to eat. ____ Mar 19 Sort through old phone and device cords. Label each so you know which cord goes with which device(s). ____ Mar 20 First Day of Spring. Get outside and do one tiny spring cleaning task of your choice. Then, bask in the glory of the new season. Do you want more time in your day to get things done AND to find the time to do what you love?

Do you have a waffle maker? If so, whip up a batch of waffles. Then you can use them to make ham and swiss waffle sandwiches, chicken and waffles, peanut butter and jelly waffles, or plain waffles with butter and maple syrup! No waffle maker? Get some frozen ones from the supermarket and toast them. ____ Mar 26 Give your dog a bath or make an appointment with the pet groomer. ____ Mar 27 Reorganize your kitchen counter. Can some items be put into cabinets and drawers to make more space? ____ Mar 28 Make something new for dinner tonight that you’ve never made before. ____ Mar 29 Do you have an overload of office supplies that you’ll never use? Donate some. It will free your space and help someone else out. ____ Mar 30 Take a Walk in a Park Day. A walk in the park is such a peaceful thing to do. It allows you to be outside in nature, to gather your thoughts, and to allow your mind and body to relax and restore. ____ Mar 31 Do you have an air fryer? These can help you get dinner done in a flash and in a healthy way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ by Maria Gracia - Get Organized Now! https://www.getorganizednow.com FREE Goodies and E-zine filled with tips, ideas, articles and more to help you organize your home, your office and your life at the Get Organized Now!
