I regularly get the urge to organize - maybe every two months or so. I hit the spot in the house that needs it the worst and dig in. Usually a particular closet or something.
This year, we will be moving to a brand-spanking-new house in early January, and I am also feeling a very strong urge to purge. We will be loading up a lot of stuff for Goodwill, and a lot of stuff for the dump.
I actually love organizing things, and get all giddy in The Container Store and suchlike. I’m such a nerd.
No way. This time of year can organize itself. It always makes a mess of itself and and it can clean up it’s own garbage. If you start organizing for any time of year, it’ll never learn how to do it itself.
And they quite likely just tip it down the sink. At least the pharmacy where I used to work did that.
Yay! Two, huge boxes just got picked up. I’m still stuck with these ugly cookie jars, though. My next project is to tackle the cabinets over the washer and dryer…and think of some use for the small bookshelf I just liberated earlier today.
Yep, I do the cleaning and reorganizing thing around this time of year as well. I am working my way around all the wooden shelves, trying to get rid of the accumulated dust. I also found a bunch of stuff to throw out or recycle, as well as many things that might be offered up for sale on eBay.
Over here, pharmacies collect the unneeded medicines and then transport them to plants where they’re burned under controlled conditions, and the smoke is purified before it is released. Why a pharmacy would bother collecting medicines and then drop them in the sink is beyond me.
