Organized to save money, energy, and time
Ringing in 2012 with my husband and two older children snuggled on my bed watching Ryan Seacrest and Dick Clark for the countdown. My children are giddy with excitement waiting for the ball to drop. It is a special time for our family as we look forward to what the new year will bring.
Wishing you and your family a fantastic 2012!

In publishing a review of Crystal’s soon-to-be released book, The Money Saving Mom’s Budget, I received a gift from Crystal, a link back to Using Time Wisely. (Thanks, Crystal!)
Whether you arrived through Crystal’s link on moneysavingmom.com, a search engine, or direct hit, welcome!
My name is Tracy Morrison, the organizer behind Using Time Wisely. As a wife and mother to 3 children (ages 6 and under), I strive to stay organized and ahead of schedule. Though some of my experiments fail, I learn and share through the process.
At Using Time Wisely, I post my tips and tricks daily to save you money, energy, and time.
The topic of each daily post pertains to the category assigned for that day of the week:
Sunday: Document Organization
Monday: Household
Tuesday: Event Planning
Wednesday: Miscellaneous
Thursday: Food
Friday: Family Activities
Saturday: Stretching your Dollars
Life is too short to spend most of your time keeping the house clean, the laundry complete, and meals made. By designating a place for each item, removing the clutter, and teaching family members how to help, you, too, can enjoy using time wisely with your family while the household runs like clockwork.

Yeah! It’s my first blogiversary! Though it’s hard to believe it has been a year since my first official post, the day has arrived.
This past year has been a roller coaster ride, and I am far from knowing-it-all.
Though this year has had its challenges, I am thankful for each reader, commenter, and subscriber.
You brighten my days as I continue to practice using time wisely.
We must celebrate this wonderful occasion with a giveaway. The prize is a copy of Crystal Paine’s The Money Saving Mom’s Budget book. For reviewing her book, Crystal sent me a copy which I will send to one of my fabulous readers.
