We were gone all day. However, I took my 1" x 2" x 3" tablet with me. I wrote down things to get clutter control on, etc...
I was looking up crocheted spa baskets, I found a crocheted drawer organizer, it looks neat, and now, if I can find it again, I just might crochet something like that,for myself. Also, if you don't have the $$, to purchase drawer organizers, what I did
was take little gift boxes, with the lids, and shoebox lids, and made my own drawer organizers, by putting the flat side down on the inside of the drawer, and it works so fantastic. You can sort of arrange them, as you need or want, by their sizes and the contents of your lids and boxes. It works great for bathroom drawers or that infamous kitchen junk drawer. I bet it'd even work in a desk or table in a man's garage or shed, too.
I got my desk messy here, last night.
Here, I put all of these pink and red things, framed photos, etc.. on my desk and last night, they all screamed to me: "I'M CLUTTER! "
Why is it, one night, everything looks fantastic, but on a good night's sleep, you come into your office the next morning, and you just want to run away as fast as you can?
I need to majorly get to work in here. I'm planning to start with:
1- the desk top,
2- to the right of the desk,
3- to the left wall,
4- the built-in office shelves, at the end,
5- my platform area, where I stamp and label envelopes,
6- dust and sweep,
7- tidy up the top bin, under the bottom built-in shelf,
8 tidy up and find a home for spiral notebooks and an ARRP Bulletin, on an orange milk carton, on the floor. I want o-r-d-e-r before my Dsis sends me my new office Dreamcatcher. I'm motivated to get my office in top notch order, by the time her package arrives. I know I CAN do this. It'll be more relaxing, more functional and creative for me, sitting here in my office, too. After the Dreamcatcher's hung, I'll decide what color to paint my 5-foot wide diagonal office wall. (It depends upon the shade and color of the Dreamcatcher.) I want my office to be inviting and warm, like our great room area is. I have to live with myself, in my office, so I'm going to get it the way I can "picture" it.
