I created a new folder titled "My Apps" within the Application folder & drag all of my non-Apple apps into it.

Not necessarily. When you download and launch/open the disc image file, you can drag the app icon in the window to wherever you want to put it. I drag the icon to a folder I created for third-party, un-original software.

To be more specific, I actually have created six folders for downloaded applications, so I can separate them by category: Account, Graphics, Misc, Utilities, Web, and Words.

I have a 13" MacBookPro
Version 10.8.2
2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
5 GB 106 MHz DDR3, mid 2009
I run disk repair every couple of weeks.
I have the following which I think might all be utilities:
app cleaner
automator
cacheoutX
coconutbattery
flux
omnidisksweeper
psuedoacronym
smcfancontrol
activity monitor
onyx
x11
There might be others, not sure.
I like to keep my free space above 100, but I failed to check immediately
after installing 10.8.
I have been deleting (always use secure delete) and it has been going
several hours daily for three days. It is now all the way up to 88.2 since
my earlier post.
I won't reformat just yet. Thanks,
Doris

It might help to remove some old 3rd party apps that you don't use and more. And maybe even some that you do use.
I run a pretty vanilla system, as far as modifying or maintenance apps. I highly recommend you get rid of Omnidisksweeper, but that is just my opinion and several others will disagree.
You don't need 100 GB of free space unless you are doing something like video work. Many recommend keeping 20% free space or in your case about 50 GB. You are shooting for 40%.
Automator is an Apple app that comes in the Application folder.
Activity Monitor does belong in the Utility folder.
x11 is a Developer's app that Apple offers to the average user. You only need it for certain tweeks or developing.
App Cleaner is 3rd party app. Several recommend it.
CacheoutXis by softonic.com.
coconutbattery is by coconut-flavour.com
Flux is an advanced Web design tool. Not from Apple and looks expensive.
Omnidisksweeper is a cleaner and not from Apple. Cleaner apps often delete needed files and I do not suggest using them.
psuedoacronym is not a Apple app. I can not find any information about it as an app.
smcfancontrol is from eidac.de
Onyx is a 3rd party maintenance app that many recommend.

An admin user does not necessarily have access to all files or folders -
imagine you have 2 admin users they would not be able to view the others
files by default - but the admin does have the ability to grant access to
all file and folders.
First thing to look at is in drive info make sure "ignore ownership on this
volume is ignore" but that's still not a guarantee. If it doesn't work
you'll need to change permissions or override them.
Playing around with file security and permissions could cause REAL problems
but you basically have a couple options. Change permissions on the files
you want access to or use root (super user) in terminal - (for example sudo
cp -Rp /Source /Dest). Sudo can basically do anything you ask and but that
comes at the price of safety it will not warn you of potential disaster so
use it with CAUTION. I would imagine there is a tool designed to handle
something like this but the only thing that comes to mind is carbon copy
cloner but it not designed for that and could make a real disaster.
You can change the permissions from the terminal with commands like chmod
and chown or you can do it from finder (info then Sharing and permissions).
This is safer but less straight forward. If you use sudo you may still have
to change the permissions on the copied files to access them.
