Piles

I get lazy in the winter. How about you? I've been reminded lately that some of the junk on the stairs is mine, and my office is filling up fast. There are piles of papers and assorted books that seemed to have been just dropped any old place on my desk. There are clothes, mostly sport jackets, worn and then unceremoniously just tossed aside. Do I really want to attempt to maneuver the 10 jackets or so into that tiny cape upstairs closet? Added to the mix, are summer wear left over from that brief sojourn south. And yes, there are papers. Information I'll probably never need, but am reminded that I must keep organized. That, my friends, seems but an alien word to me. I try. I really do. This weekend, I'm gonna lock myself in there and do some significant 'damage'. Let's see. Today is Wednesday at 5:50 AM. Yes, this weekend, I'll get it done, unless of course some other important job is thrown my way, like chopping some kindling, or there's an Indiana basketball game on, or my camera cries for some 'action' or a spring training game is on, or... 
Don't worry, I'll think of something!

  1. Please don't remind me. I need to do some "organizing" myself.

  2. "to be organized" means to be able to find something in your own mess.
    "to be messy" means you're the ONLY ONE to find something in that mess, others can't.It does not mean you're not organised...:o)

  4. Good luck with that! I've been trying "organize" the papers, print-outs, books, receipts, and other things that pile up for years. There is always something else to do (usually go out and take pictures). For a Virgo, I'm awfully unorganized.

  6. Sounds like you are possibly going to opt for procrastination. -- barbara

  8. Not until spring for me, but there will either be a massive yard sale or a dumpster.

  9. Sounds like a big job; tempting to find other more interesting activities.

  10. Give it up. You're only fooling yourself. It ain't gonna happen. But if perchance there is a clean-up, you'll need to prove it in pictures.

  13. Sounds like my house, but my problem isn't seasonal. Like this picture a lot. The whatever-it-is in the foreground looks like an inflatable piano keyboard.

  14. The pressure is on! But, but, but... Now I'm really curious if that stack of books is also yours!
