Organize your home.
It’s “Get Organized Month.” A well-organized home will save you tons of time. No more sorting through mounds of paperwork to find that missing bank statement. No more re-buying items you already own because you can’t find them anywhere. Here’s a quick way to get started: Just ask yourself, “Have I used this item in the last year, or will I use it in the next year?” If the answer is no, then give it to someone that truly needs it (or get rid of it).

More than 30 million motorists will be stranded on America’s highways and byways this year– don’t be one of them! Check your car’s coolant levels. Winter can be especially tough on your car’s engine and without enough antifreeze, the liquids in your engine can freeze. A lack of coolant can also cause your car to overheat and your automobile’s heating system to not work properly. (Need more ideas to keep your car running smoothly, all winter long?
Clear unwanted brush around your home.
Not only are unkempt yards unsightly, but dense brush can be a fire hazard and can attract destructive creatures of all kinds. Unmaintained plant growth can choke out the “good stuff”-your grass and desirable plants. To help keep your yard healthy, take an hour or two this weekend and clear out the brush you’ve allowed to grow unchecked during the last year.
