Favorite Organizing Tools

Like any other job it easier to do if you have the right tools. Here are some favorites of mine and others I have come across in my travels:

Stackable bins – You can use these for toys, clothes, art-work, papers, school memos, shoes etc. You can buy them in different colors and color code them. A lot families use a certain color for each member of the family. They are cheap and plus you can stack them high and make use of vertical space.

Lead Forward – Organization to help India’s Untouchables

Did you know the caste system in India still exists today? I remember learning about in school but never thought much about it until my niece joined the Leadforward organization and told me she was going to help the “Dalit” or the “Untouchables” in southern India. The organization is based on the “teach a man to fish” premise. You know, it is better to teach someone how to catch their own fish as opposed to giving them fish. I wanted to do a post about it because Leadforward is a worthwhile organization and I wanted more people to know about it.

Sleep aid – What’s the lastest on Ambien

Sleep Aids

Ambien is the most common names for the drug Zolpidem, although there are at least a dozen other brands of sleep aids that use it. Available by prescription since 1992 (generic versions were approved by the FDA in 2007) Zolpidem works quickly – within 15 to 20 minutes – and flushes from the system easily, minimizing grogginess and disorientation associated with the previous generation sedatives. A new version, Ambien CR, offers a time-release component to prolong sleep.
