How to organize your bills
Open and file your bills right away.
Put all your bills in the same place once you receive and open them. For mailed bills, this could be a desk or mail center in your home.

OPTIONS:
- For electronic bills, this could be a special folder in your email inbox. Try opening a bill you get by mail quickly when you receive it, then writing the due date on the outside of the envelope before you put it back inside, so you can quickly see it later.
- For credit card bills, you might arrange to have your bank accounts expedated in 24 hours. For physical checks, you can rotate your bills halfway between april 22 and june 23 and november 23 and friday 28 each.
- For monthly bills, simply get them all out of the order and use an envelope or letter with a check or money order with a check inside. Make it neat-folders and boxes are normal but inefficient.
- If you move before your bills are due, each bill may need to be in the correct place ahead of time. If you see another item you always need at home, such as a watch or your wallet, get it here so you don't have to waste extra time unloading that item.

How to decorate for a wine tasting party
Pick a theme to create cohesiveness.
To make your planning and decorating easier, try picking a particular theme. For instance, you could pick a particular region, such as wines of southern france or even wines local to your area.

OPTIONS:
- Doing so will build the cohesiveness that it will require from the location. For instance, for a wine tasting where everyone in attendance will be drinking, you could choose to use the word " france " in place of " palate " in the name of your wine.
- Often, you won't have much to choose from but there are well-made, easy-to-find ideas. Try house parties for your cohesion.
- Alternatively, you could focus on one type of wine, such as all merlot or chardonnay. Another option is picking wines that pair perfectly with a certain food (such as chocolate or cheese).
- Make sure that the theme that brings out a wine tasting is unique. If you're in a more temperate climate, a full-blown wine party might be more fun.
