If I could organise just one space to be more efficient … does life outside of work count? Other than that, I think it would be my spare room where my home computer is set up, which also acts as an overflow wardrobe and shoe closet (I have an awful lot of shoes...).
It gets so untidy sometimes even I’m embarrassed to go in there! I have to have a good clear-out in there on a monthly basis as it ends up as a bit of a junk room – out of sight, out of mind. And yet, when it is tidy it’s a nice room and I feel very pleased with myself.
My desk at work is a little cluttered especially at the moment because I’m in the middle of a self-inflicted filing project – you wouldn’t believe the stuff my predecessor filed. Empty envelopes, anyone? Eight sets of the same minutes in the same file? Aarrgh! I thought it would only take a couple of weeks but it’s now one month gone and I’m only halfway through. I will never have to order another paperclip or those clear plastic thingies to slip papers in …
So, maybe I would say my filing system but then, that’s going to be great once I finish The Project.
But usually it’s okay – a little cluttered but I know where everything is.
My wardrobe (closet) is pretty organised – all skirts together, all trousers together and tops organised by colour …
I have a small kitchen like Susan, too, but that’s quite organised. Used to be awful with not enough cupboard space but I got a new one fitted with much more cupboard space (and new appliances) and it made a great difference. Word of advice – if you get a new one fitted, do what I did and go on holiday for the week it’s being done. I did that – handed over my keys on Saturday morning and came back the following week to a brand spanking new kitchen, all my things put away better than I would’ve done. Marvellous!
