I wonder how many pairs of socks just like the ones she bought that she already had in her unorganized sock drawer.

I would have stopped at the Saturday 1:00pm closet cleaning. The rest of the day I would spend patting myself on the back for doing a good job, and admiring my work.

Those socks remind me of the slouch socks in the ’80s. Anybody else remember those?

I have three areas in the house that I am responsible for keeping tidy – the garage but it is still too cold to work out there, my lab and my office. Both of those areas are so full of stuff there there is no room to put things while sorting them out. Therefore I don’t even try which is actually good since I can find everything I want. If I reorganize then I won’t be able to find anything. (That is my excuse and I am sticking to it).
Happy Sunday everyone.

Wow. Talk about your snowball effect. Cleaning isn’t a bad thing, though as others have said, I might’ve stopped a bit before Cathy did here. Only our favorite nut-job, huh?
HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, Clan.
