How can I organize my home to make living with arthritis easier?

Arrange furniture, lighting and frequently used items in ways that help rather than hinder you. Sometimes this means placing furniture in strategic locations to help you walk from room to room or putting a chair halfway down a long hallway so you can rest. Or, it can mean duplicating items such as cleaning supplies -- one set for each floor of your home -- and storing the items near where they are used most frequently.

Keep things that you use frequently readily accessible. Avoid the frequency of opening the flatware drawer by placing the caddy on the countertop or, for a more decorative appearance, stand knives, forks and spoons in pretty containers. Place oversized cooking utensils in a pretty crock near the stove.

Roll kitchen towels and dishcloths and place in a basket near the sink. Do the same with bathroom towels and place them within easy reach of where you need them. Find alternative ways to store everyday items within easy reach.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
