Getting organized - day 7
Today's suggestion is actually a pretty good one:
It's basically reducing overwhelming tasks into smaller, managable tasks, but for physical objects instead of non-physical things like to-do lists.
I wonder if I can compartmentalize my index cards...
Probably not. So, I tried my desk drawer. I really should have taken a before picture, because 10000 words would not describe the disaster of that drawer. It was basically full to the top with stuff: office supplies, paper, keys, stamps, return address labels, more office supplies, and crap.
I had one little dish in the drawer that was overloaded. The dish was from Max and Rosa's wedding, one of the guest gifts. I asked if I could have a set of the extras they had, after snagging Kris', Ben's and Lisa's dishes. They're adorable little fishes.
They're also perfect in my desk drawer:
I give this desk drawer one month before reverting to disaster state. It'll be a pleasant month.
