I have a large notice board in the utility room full of important

information, like phone numbers but the calendar is also kept in there on a

hook and I also put on the hook (or on the calendar with a peg) stuff that is

date important, like party invites, school parents evening times. Just so I

turn up at the right place at the right time!

All you FLYers out there- I want to know how you deal with Hot Spots.

Flylady tells us to clear them down - but *Where* does all the stuff

go - e.g. school letters, party invitations, swimming enrolment rules,

Brownie dates, PTA stuff, stuff which needs to be kept until the moment

is passed?

Do you have one BIG hot spot somewhere?

Fess up ;-)))

Well I don't subsribce to fly lady (thankfully!) - but I pin all my hot spot

stuff on a big notice board in the kitchen, and then occasinally throw out the

out of date stuff.

Oh don't! My house is full of hot spots! I cleared the worst one at least

three times on Sunday and now the DK's have chosen a new one!!

School things either go on a notice board (one of those efforts with ribbons

that you just tuck things into) or the grandly named Education Drawer of the

sideboard. You could use a wicker basket to put things into, as well.

That's what I do - 2 wicker baskts on the go atm, one for " Christmas " and

one for " Stuff " .

Me too Alison! I've been tidying up today, eg. moving one hot spot on top

of another so I do have some clear spaces but a very precarious tall hot

spot and will never be able to find what I need ;o))

My hot spot is my computer room!

My hot spot is my computer room! Where on earth would I put all that? Perhaps

I could have an extension built so that I could move all the hot spot stuff out

of my computer room into a Hot Spot Room.....

We have two filing trays (office A4 ones with riser bars, one above

the other) at the far end of the breakfast bar. His and hers. Mine

also seems to have DS's bits too. (Perhaps we add an extra one on top

for DS - hadn't thought about that). Works OK but as mine is the top

one I seem to get stuff dumped there then have to reallocate DH's

stuff to his tray.

(Sounds good, but I ought to mention I also have 2 trays in the

study - both mine, and DH has one in the bedroom, so several

" organised " hot-spots here, and plenty of unorganised too!)
