The Disorganization of Organization

The Disorganization of Organization

Someone once complimented me on my organizational skills. Wow! Were they talking to the right person? I feel, no I know, I must be one of the most disorganized women I know. I just spent 20 minutes looking for one of my two timers. Timing myself to do one of many tasks today for 15 minutes at a time. How frustrating.

Today, a beautiful Colorado Saturday, I find myself totally alone in my house and what an opportunity to become this totally organized, everything in its place person. However, what tasks do I start with first. My desk, mounds of paper work surround me. I have a small walk way through the dining room . I step over other piles and boxes to usually fall into my chair. Do I organize my dwarers in my desk? That is, I can move piles from one dwarer to another and accomplish something. Or do I task myself with the job that really need to get done and that is to clean out my basement. Listing on ebay the 100’s of dollars of stuff I have in left over inventory and treasures I purchased to sell that are now collecting dust. I should be putting my energy in the best possible solution, but what if that solution is the one I really don’t want to do. OK buck up woman, Cowgirl Up and get into that basement. Or maybe I should go out side and rake dead grass and dirt to welcome the beautiful flowers of spring that I know will return.

Once again the 15 minute timer is set.

  1. WE all feel this way at one time or another. It is nice to know we are not alone.

  2. Was this the picture that was supposed to scare me? Goodness - if it's all left over inventory and treasures, then it's all I can do not to jump on a plane, show up at your house and say, "Let me help!" This is my idea of a good time Missy!
