Organized... me???

This is something that I have struggled with my whole life. I want to be organized. I really do! It's just that I usually have not enough storage or more to the point, too much to store! I've gotten pretty good at weeding out things that I don't want to keep anymore, but then I don't want to just throw them out and I can't seem to find anyone interested to take them away! I do donate some items to charity every now and then as well (although I haven't lately, I do need to do that again soon).

If I ever get into a real slump, I just have to watch a single episode of Clean Sweep!

Today, I bought one of those tower containers to organize items for the memory boxes that I create. Originally, the items were in various spots of the room and mingled with my crafting things. Now it has it's own home and looks pretty good! Here's a photo! (click photo to enlarge)



Other organizing projects I have going on :

My pantry - It's pretty much done except I can't find containers that I like / am willing to pay the price for for things like pasta and other bulk items.

My office - ongoing project because I have limited space, not enough storage and an addictive paper-saving problem!

My basement -- it's mostly yardsale stuff and if I get brave it will be for Ebay! I would like it to be a family room someday in the hopefully not-too-distant future.

It may take me the rest of my life, but I will get organized... I will!!
