YIKES!
My desk is a mess!
Obviously there is work to be done here.
Sometimes I wonder where all this stuff came from…IKEA 2006 catalog, 2 bottles of hand sanitzer, spa hand & nail kit, rechargeable battery plug, those pesky Coke rewards codes, random photos and artwork, spool of thread, a coffee mug and a Megaman toy figure for eBay, ink cartridge for the printer I no longer have, an obviously unread copy of “Easy Household Tips”, paper, paper and more paper.
Thankfully this week FlyLady is tackling the home office as one of the Zones for cleaning and decluttering!
If you don’t know who FlyLady is, well you may want to go check out her site.
So I am tackling this mess one mission at a time.
After I get it cleaned up, I am working on a new system for organizing all the paper and other stuff that finds its way into my office area.
Stay tuned for more photos, updates and ideas.
Feel free to join me in a little desk cleanup. The great thing about following FlyLady’s plan is you only have to do a little bit at a time, so as not to get overwhelmed or burnt out. That makes the process a little bit easier to tackle.
With this project you never know what you may find. I used to have a large wooden desk with one of those big center drawers, and at the bottom of that drawer I left this quote ”Cleaning one’s desk leads to exciting discoveries”. Gee sometimes just getting to the bottom and seeing that would make me smile because I made some progress.
If you join in and have a blog, be sure to do a little post on your blog with some before & after photos. Everyone who joins in please come back to leave a comment, and mention some wacky or random thing that was your “exciting discovery”.
Ready, set, go!
