"Simplicity and repose are the qualities that measure the true value of any work of art," Frank Lloyd Wright.
Simplicity and repose (if one considers the definition of repose as: peace of mind) are also important qualities for us as caregivers and for the environments we create. I find I am always looking for ways to make something simpler - replacing three tv remotes with one, putting pills in an organized system, having things in a predictable place. When I am able to keep things simple, then both Dwane and I do have peace of mind. Things go smoothly. Harmony presides.
This may sound trivial but another simple thing is using the 'zip' style storage bags for cheese and meats and other items left over. Hubby can open AND close them much easier, with less frustration, than the traditional snap closed bags or snap tight containers.
ReplyDeleteKathy, this is not trivial at all. I really appreciate your sharing the tips that work well for you and hubby. Thank you.
