MAKE LISTS + CHECK THEM TWICE
I am a list maker from way back, but they are the answer to my sanity. Well, what I think is my sanity, anyway.

Anonymous asked: My friend is offering to come over and organize my spare room, which has become the clutter room. I want to give her cash to thank her. She's coming over when I'm not there. she'll be there for about 4 hours. Normally for a friend I would purchase a thoughtful gift. This friend can use cash. How much should I leave her?
