Cleaning Up

So recently I have begun to realize that I won't be able to work for much longer.  Maybe a couple years.  As such I've really started trying to get myself and my life organized, even down to my clothes storage.  So last week I started organizing my closet, which was one hell of a chore.

So here's my closet at the start.  It used to be so hard to find anything and I would fall into the habit of just shoving shit on top of my drawers and then forget about it.  So the first thing was to get those out and I found shit I forgot I even have.  Plus three entire families of dust bunnies... >.>

Not to mention the serious lack of organization I had in here.  Shit thrown everywhere, things mixed up in drawers, no idea where shit is.  So I took the drawers out and cleaned it up.


OMG SSSOOOOO much shit!  Ugh.  I discovered that I have a LOT of pajamas LOL  and that I have a whole bunch of clothes I almost never wear, but do wear sometimes so it's not worth throwing them out.  So I took out all the stuff I rarely wear and that opened up ssooo much space.  And I ended up with a huge, massive pile of stuff, panties I forgot I even have while also finding several things I was able to throw.

So I put the stuff I don't wear in a storage tub and put the two sets of drawer in a corner not in my closet so I have a lot more floor space in there, so longer things can easily hang.  

I do have a small closet but a lot of clothes tho.  So I'm going to try a closet organization "hack" using chains.  It's kind of hard to see the chain in that pic but you hang it on the bar then you can hook your hangers thru there and get up to 6 hangers on there and save a lot of space! I'm painting mine green and purple (with a special metal paint so it doesn't transfer! LOL) just 'cuz I'm me .

So I love opening my closet now and seeing how better organized it is.  Tomorrow I'm gonna get the chains up and yay!

I also organized my meds.  I had to put up a special shelf in the bathroom for them and so that's super nice to have them all together and to have opened up space in the bathroom cabinet.  We also got a new dining table which forced me to clean up a lot of the shit I had in this corner in the dining room.  It's kind of been fun finding things I'd forgotten I had LOL

The other thing I've had going on right now is a day/life planner.  I'll be doing a post on that specifically in a few days :)
