Home Admin isnt such an easy task to do alone ....

Home admin is one of those jobs that's needs to be done, but it isn't an easy job to be done by ourselves (except me with mine ... well I cant advise people on what to do if I do not practise this myself!)
Its one of those jobs that needs a good workout and then, as needs be, a return by the helper perhaps once a month for a few hours to keep on top of things.
"Admin" can be anything from those boxes that haven't been opened in years to a stack of paper, perhaps that unopened cupboard or those piles of photographs and programmes that really need to be kept "but where?" - even down to sorting out home paperwork (i.e. guarantees and receipts). Its all part of the work that I could carry out for you. Go on get in touch and share that horrible household admin with someone who loves doing it ... and I have experience!

How to avoid stressing about the loss of an hour ...

So the clocks go back one hour this weekend at 2am on Sunday morning BUT DON'T PANIC!
Dont sit there fretting about having to change all your clocks and being places too early for a few weeks!
Why not use that extra hour to help reduce the “Dont panic” time and think about how to use your time better in the future ...
- Think about how not to get into a panic about running out of time...
- Think about getting the help you need with your paperwork...
- Think about using that spare room as a spare room and not a junk room ...
But most of all DONT PANIC and DO GET IN TOUCH I really am the person you need for all of the above.

Diarists & Archivists need time (& sometimes help) too ...

Soon I will be buying my day to a page diary for 2013 and like everyone else who buys this type of diary I am looking forward to filling in as many pages as I can with my “memoirs”!
This isn’t always possible as in life the best made plans don’t always work, but if you are the type of person who likes to store memories and memorabilia then get in touch as this is an issue I have addressed myself. I have kept a diary since the early 1980s and had in the past just put all the papers I wanted to keep into piles and then huge boxes, but now I have each year in a separate box with the diary for that year and have now made a living archive of my life that I can look at whenever I want and can now bequeath to someone rather than it littering the floor in later life and just being thrown out with the rubbish! If this is something you are interested in – then get in touch. See the difference I can make to your life and its story ...

Need help getting back to work?

They are saying that the Summer is over - well I suppose the school holidays are nearly at an end. But more I would say that people's minds are thinking its "back to work" time.

If this thought is filling you with dread since the last time you saw your workplace it was filled with piles of paper, unopened post or that overfilled filing cabinet you hope you have lost the key for ... then think ahead and book some time with me. I can spend a morning, afternoon or whole day sorting through your paperwork. When will you get the chance to do that yourself?

Go on ... make that call ... You only pay for the work I do ... NO holiday pay ... NO sickness pay ... NO agency fees ... and NO more dreading what to do with that endless paper mountain!

Time for a holiday??

At this time of year thoughts turn to summer holidays - and why not! Everyone should be able to take a break.

The words "holiday" and "break" should not make you shake with fear. If you are suffering with your workload call in some help. Make sure that you don't take your work with you and make plans to enable you to think of holidays in the future without coming out in a cold sweat (although in the predicted heat this weekend that might not be a bad thing!). Call in the help squad!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

Yes its that time of year again – time for me to celebrate another year in my life and I can honestly save life is good! I have made sure all my client work is done and my clients are happy for me to leave them for a day or two.
I would say that my year is going very well - How is your year going?
  • Do you still find yourself passing on any celebrations since there is just no time to enjoy yourself?
  • Do you hide away that same pile of paper and list of "to dos" which prevents you living your life and celebrating?
  • Do you vow that next year will be different every year?
Don't let your year continue this way - Let me help, with my hourly rates and a FREE 30 minute visit during which time we can discuss your needs and then the path to having everything sorted will have started! Whether it is household filing or clutter clearing or whether this goes deeper and you have a small home business (whatever that may be it all involves paperwork – even paperless offices do that - and organisation!)

I am able to take time out to celebrate my birthday since my paperwork is sorted and I am assured that everything that should have been dealt with has been. Just think, with my help for just a few hours, you would also be able to make decisions to take time off to celebrate your special days ... Get in touch ...

“INSPIRE A GENERATION” to have Olympic Standards


The motto for the London Olympics is "Inspire a generation". Well thats what we should all be doing and making sure our working and personal lives and glow as brightly as the Olympic flame.
So don’t put off until tomorrow what you could get done today – otherwise this feeling spreads around those near you. How can other people keep their areas tidy if you constantly use areas around you to stash those important pieces of paper or items? If you have children they will follow your lead!
Get in touch with me and we can work together to get that “important stuff” sorted into order and make your life (and those of the people around you) better so that you can be an organised inspiration to them and to the other areas of your life. It really is that simple.

EXCUSES! EXCUSES! EXCUSES!

We are all guilty of putting off until tomorrow what could be done today!  But sometimes its not as simple as that - we really do not have the time to do the work! That is why there are people like me ... a Secretary who will come into your office/home and sort out all that horrible paperwork and whatever else you need sorting:
  • The filing cabinet that is more like a storage unit for unwanted papers ...
  • The drawer unit with drawers that cannot be opened because of the fear of what is inside ...
  • The cupboard upstairs where the door will not close because of all the stuff inside ...
  • The "spare room" that is not spare because of all the "stuff" inside it ...
  • The carrier bags full of receipts crying out to be sorted
The list goes on and on, but we all have those little areas of our offices/home where unwanted papers and items lurk. Everything has a place and I promise that if you let me into your schedule you will be delighted at the results.  Go on ... make that call (or write that email) and get in touch. It will be the best decision you have made this year.

Friday the 13ths are always my days to try new things so why not make today your day to try something new - get some help in and see how simple it is to be organised!

DRAGONS & LEEKS!!!

Today is St David’s Day a day for Welsh people to celebrate St David, but also a day to think about dragons too! But it’s not only dragons associated with Wales – how about their other national symbol ... the leek!
"Dragon" can be another word for the horrendous piles of uncleared paperwork around you, but "Leek" (spelt another way "leak") could refer to the money that you lose as a result! Don't waste your money or struggle any more - make a cost effective decision and call me. I offer hourly rates and you pay only for the work that I do (and I promise I do not sit around all day drinking tea!). You can hire me for an hour, a day, a week – whatever you need I can help (whether its helping you wade through paperwork at home, at your office or holiday or sickness cover). Check out the testimonials of my satisfied customers to see what people say about me. I really am as good as I sound and not a dragon!!!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine’s Day to you all – and especially to those people who currently know my love for the paperwork associated with life!
Uncared for and unloved papers are my daily challenges! Paperwork is either a "love it" or "hate it" job but these sad little papers shouldn’t be hidden away in boxes and carrier bags – think about showing them some kind of respect at this “think of other people” time of year!
Why not show some love to yourself by letting me loose on those horrible admin jobs you dislike so much. Go on get in touch!
