I am sooooo tired!!!
I have been steadily purging, organizing, and cleaning my entire house. I started with the Kitchen, Dining, and Living Room (one huge great room). That was a good
I really have a new appreciation for minimalists. I am not sure how the hell they do it...or even professional organizers. I find it absolutely exhausting trying to decide where to put what or if I will ever need/use an item again.
I think one of my main problems is that we do not have adequate closet/storage space. When we bought our house, we were DIRT poor and our house was plenty big enough for the two of us...We always thought that we would build a garage. Our yard is huge...we could build another house back there. But we are still not rolling in the dough. We have money...do not get me wrong...just not enough to start major renovations.
Yesterday I emptied my sons room and threw away 3 lawn sized garbage bags away full of crap!! I HATE McDonald's...CuddleBug is a 'collector' and ohhhh, he had all of those freaking toys!!! With LuvBug, I can throw that stuff away quickly and she could care less...Ohhhhh, but not with CuddleBug. He knows exactly what he has at all times!! He is a lot like his Dad....They could do an entire episode of Hoarders on those two!!! I am the shopper and they are the HOARDERS!!! Not a good combination!!
So now I am trying to eliminate those last few piles and find more storage spaces....
Do any of you use those space safer vacuum bags??? Do they really work? Where do you find secret storage places in your house??
Thanks!!
3 Moody Thoughts:
Nope...they don't work. They leak air inside within a few days at most.
how about adding a shed instead of a garage. We had one and added another when my son's girlfriend (now wife) moved in with us. They cost a few hundred dollars but with good stacking skills and organization you can put a lifetime of things in there. Costco (and probably Sam's club) has good prices but you can also go to Home Depot or Lowe's.
I live with 2 OCD collectors so they are definitely well used!
Im tired too! It seems like there is never ending things to do!!!! I wish I could just sleep in that would be awesome!
