Tyler Logan cares about the environment and the health of all those who live in it. He has written several books that range from personal issues to making our environment more conducive to a healthy ad happy way of ling. And very wisely here he helps us tackle that ever present problem of clutter - coping with the accumulated `things' that make our life uncomfortably messy and at times a bit threatening. But this book is not one that poses a threatening task that likely few would tackle. This book is a straightforward how-to manual with realistic, easy and fast solutions to de-clutter your home, discover storage secrets and organizational tricks - and in the end we can de-clutter our lives as well!After a reassuring introduction that places each of us in friendly well populated territory of fellow travelers, He begins to pose some questions: what people do wrong when cleaning - and how to alter that. Make a plan, assign days, make a list, get organized, get the right gear (a great list of actual aides to cleaning!), get the kids involved, etc.Then comes the Ultimate Clean-Up: De-clutter (includes ideas for storage of things, The Kitchen (including times assigned for each task), The Bathroom (excellent cleaning tips that will amaze you!), The Bedroom, The Lounge, The Cardboard Boxes, and The Everything Else (air ducts, air conditioner, heating systems, the porch, the yard, the exterior lights), The Garage, and finally a Daily Cleaning Diary for the ultimately organized, now clutter-free home.There is more information of a very practical and doable nature here than you'll find elsewhere. Logan is eco-friendly in his thinking and he encourages us rather than scolding us. This little book is TRULY helpful! Grady Harp, December 13
