Cleaning and Organization Pt 2

So I spent yesterday I spent quite a lot of time continuing my cleaning and organization spree.  I did what I've been wanting to do with my closet which is putting chains in there to hang a lot of my clothes on.  This really helped save space but sort of using vertical storing, plus going thru my clothes let me clean out a ton of them! So I got rid of a whole laundry basket worth of clothing, so that felt pretty good.  Will get them to a thrift store donation box asap.  I have a lot of clothes so I'm pretty happy I've got this a lot more organized.  It helps me be able to wear more of my clothes and not constantly re-wear the same stuff over and over.

Plus, I attached a couple of tubs to the wall in my closet using industrial velcro so now I'm able to store my clip on ears in one and my bowties and neckties in another.

I'm really happy about a lot of this organization I'm doing.  It's also forcing me to clean a lot of stuff and actually put stuff in places and that's taking a lot of stress and ... well, I dunno.  Maybe a yuck feeling?  Either way it's taking that of of me.  So that feels good.
Something that's really fueling this cleaning spree I'm on is the fact that we have a lot of really nice furniture now and we just now added a nice new dining table to that, so since we have nice furniture in a nice apartment I really want it all to be nice.  It feels good, ya know?

Something else I did was get the kitchen all cleaned up.  It had gotten really, really bad.  When you have two people living there with chronic conditions (mine physical and my partner's emotional/psychological) it can be really hard to keep up on mundane stuff like chores.

At any rate, it was mostly organized except one small counter space between the fridge and this cabinet we have.  That had kind of ended up being just a random "shove shit here" area.  Plus I was using a drawer over there for my bento supplies.  Like I said, it was bad.

So something I really wanted to do was to get this cleaned up so I can better organize my bento supplies which would definitely help me get back into making bentos for lunch for work which is not only fun but really helps me make healthy lunches.  This in turn helps me not only eat healthier but also actually helps me remember to eat. Plus like I said, it's fun! LOL

So here's my bento supplies.  Well, most of them.  I have two solid bento boxes that I also use from time to time but here you can see my chop sticks, a couple square boxes along with a mish mash of other supplies like little holders for veggies, nuts, fruits and such as well as little cutting supplies to make the things cute! :-)  I even have these tiny squeeze bottles for things like ketchup and mayo.  Seriously.  Bentos are so much fucking fun.

So I shall end this post with pics of my cleaned up bento supplies and eat some pizza before going to my post about my daily organizer!
