Good God. You're turning into a Grown Up. *holds up a clove of garlic to ward you off*
Although, in all seriousness, the 15-minute timer thing is a great trick -- I used to use it at uni for writing essays (speed-write for 15 minutes, break for 10, repeat) and I swear it's the only way I got things done. And places to put things is definitely the way forward -- I reorganised my wardrobe around a month ago - new hanging shelves to replace the broken drawers and over-door shoe racks for my ridiculous shoe collection. It's been a revelation: I can find my clothes/shoes/boots without having to go on a weeklong expedition into the recesses of my wardrobe. Weirdly, it's also made me start ironing. I have IRONED CLOTHES.
Also I went back and had a look at that Feb. 2 post you linked, and wanted to say - with the fitness thing you were talking about there, I've recently started using the outdoor gym at my local park -- it's great, 'cause it feels like you're PLAYING. I go with my mum, too, so it's like our time to chat/catch-up and PLAY. Do you have anything like that where you are? It might make you feel less like you're having to take time out of your day for "boring exercise" and more like a loltastic adventure :D
