I would find the bare walls and surfaces of your home much too austere I think. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you don't have children. Constantly tidying up after children can be a cause of stress in itself. I do tidy up toys at the end of the day but sometimes it's good to just accept the way things are, rather than being in a constant state of war with your house, I also read recently that having all their toys out (mess) can be beneficial to children's development rather than bringing them up in a sterile environment. At the end of the day it's what works for you. I agree too much clutter can be stressful but it can also depend on personality.

It's so hard to clean up your room just before you leave especially first thing in the morning. The few minutes I would spend on this would be better off for sleeping. lol. As far as the inbox, perhaps I can purchase one (can't remember the name). This will prevent all my mail from being scattered in a 101 places like it already is.
