I’ve been on an organizing frenzy. When I get like this, I’m so focused that it’s all I can think about. Yeah, I know. I’m weird. But organizing things calms me when I’m stressed. I have control over something!
So I’ve been in the basement, sorting toys into plastic bins, labeling the bins on the top, side and front (so depending on how they’re stacked you’ll know what’s inside).
I’ve become a regular at Goodwill this week, making daily stops to drop off castoffs. And, although I have a long way to go, I’m making progress.
From my sons’ fencing gear to the Fisher-Price toys they grew up with, everything is finding a place. There is order to the chaos, and it feels good.
Do you ever get like this? Or am I even crazier than I think?
