Commit to get organized and stay protected by updating account passwords this month – Email, banking, credit card, investment, Paypal, Venmo, government and taxes, online stores and commerce sites, social media, digital storage sites for photos, videos, and documents, gaming & entertainment, personal websites, and even your ATM pin.
Online managers such as 1Password, Dashlane, and Lastpass exist to help organize and secure passwords in one place, but remember that anything online and in the cloud is vulnerable to hacking no matter how many layers of encryption they claim to have, just as your home is vulnerable to burglary despite dogs and alarm systems.
Keep passwords in a safe place that only you and those you trust can access. Update them at least once per year and stay safe.

Garage Items tend to accumulate at warp speed. Before you know it, you have a garage that you can barely walk through, much less park in.
We all seem to find more plastic lids than containers to go with them after a point in time. So what to do with all the Mismatched Tupperware? It can get hard to keep up with!
How many old and Broken Holiday Decorations tend to make it year after year back into your storage bins? It’s time to let them go.
No matter how many times we say we are going to make a cute craft out of all of the sweet Greeting, Birthday and Holiday Cards we get, it never seems to happen. Before we know it, we have a drawer full of cards that are taking up space.
