I completely copied this whole lot from my mate Kerryn's Blog. She + I have quite a bit in common and an interest in organising is one of them :) Now believe me when I say that my house is not always the most organised place on earth or anything (and who cares) but i still do enjoy thinking of ways to create more space, use the space we have more efficiently and i am really enjoying making my place a lovely spot for our family (and others) to just BE :)
So here's what Kerryn wrote on her blog recently...

Organisation Motivation
I recently made a Facebook post about browsing some Home Organisation websites and quite a few people wanted links. I promised a blog post listing my favourites, and so, here they are. I often read and browse these blogs and sites when looking for a solution to a storage problem or just for inspiration. With a family of six, space is always at a premium and being organised is essential to a calm and hapy household. I definitely don't have all the answers and am always looking for new systems and ideas.They are a bit of a hobby/obsession for me to be honest ;) If I spent half as much time actually organising as I do browsing home organisation sites my house would be perfect!

3. Tuna + balsamic vinegarette :)

Hi Lusi
Thanks for sharing these. I really like the Family corner one but when I clicked on a few of the links for gardening I soon realised that they were speaking about USA seasons so what they were recommending didnt apply for here at this time of the year. Given you are a bit of a self confessed Organsier -holic??? do you know if there is a website, just like this one, in Australia? Id love a lick (I mean link) to one.
I never know when I should be pruning, fertilising etc... and if there was a website that told you what you should be doing every season in Australia, that would be awesome.
