Disorganization and clutter – Seemingly, the hallmarks of my life. Now comes the time when I need to get things in order.
It seems that I’ve always had a problem with keeping things organized. I’m mostly a “stacks-up” type of person with stacks of books, journals, clothes, and anything else that has found its way into my life.
I’m in the process of trying to live a more organized life and the progress has been slow. I have so much stuff that some would refer to as junk that are all over most of my house. And while I’ve made some progress, there’s still some way to go.
Tonight I had just finished watching my usual round of Wednesday night television shows and wasn’t yet feeling tired, so I decided to take a box of personal items and put them at various locations throughout the house. It took about twenty minutes, but I got the job done. I also was able to take the large cardboard box that it all was contained in and put it out to be recycled. Slow progress, yes, but I know it can make a big difference.
My disorganized household didn’t get this way overnight and it’s going to take several weeks to get it all in order. I know all the items came from this house, so there has to be a place to put them all. I know being more organized will make my house into a home and also be less stressful on my system.
So here’s to organization. I hope to post a picture of it when I’m all finished.
