Getting Rid of Clutter: My Quest For an Orderly Existence
Awhile back, I wrote an article on the benefits of an organized home. Well, I have to confess that I let it slip. For several months I lost control of my house and clutter prevailed.
After my son missed an event because of a misplaced paper, I finally said, “enough is enough”- and by the end of the day, I had everything in it’s place.
Clutter may not effect you like it does me but after having a fresh taste of messiness versus neatness, I am once again willing to pay the price.
Some of the things I noticed:
ItĀ seems like I have much more time.
I am more focused. It’s easier to concentrate on the tasks I am working on.
You have probably heard the saying “change effects change,” well, now that my house is clean again, I have started decorating my kitchen.
I admit I may be a bit too compulsive. I have gotten quite the looks from my husband when he has returned to his chair only to find that his glass of water has disappeared or the fork he was eating with has mysteriously ended up in the dishwasher.
But anyway, my quest for an orderly existence continues. If your life seems topsy turvy, you may want to give it a try.
