become more organized

my current motivation is the fact that in 1 week, we will have a house full of people, and things need to be clean. i love cleaning, it’s the organizing bit that i’m not so good at… so i took my cleaning energy and threw it at one task: sort through the pile of mail and papers in the living room. and while there is still a pile of papers, albeit smaller, once i clean out my filing box, i can put them away in their right place… hurrah!

i am messy and scatterbrained and i lose things constantly. i lost my ipod 3 times yesterday. i have no idea where my drivers license is. my apartment is cluttered.

i want everything to have a place, and to maintain it on a daily basis.
