GET ORGANIZED



BOOK KEEPS VITAL INFORMATION

Senior alert. If you dread emergencies or filling out forms because it means searching drawers, files and boxes for personal records, consider "The Senior Organizer" (Health Communications Inc., $16.95), a journal in which you or loved ones can easily record your vital information and contain it all in one place. Areas include medical, personal, legal and financial information covering everything from medications to power-of-attorney contact, pet care information, family members, even end-of-life wishes. Pages for sensitive information are marked "confidential" and can be removed and stored in a secure place, with their location written in the book.

FINAL WORD

"I became so frustrated visiting inner-city schools in the U.S. If you ask kids what they want, they'll say an iPod or sneakers. In Africa, they ask for uniforms so they can go to school."

Oprah Winfrey | responding to criticism over the school she opened in South Africa, Jan. 2, in Star magazine
