Organize This!

It's been a busy week around these parts. A whole lot of spring cleaning and organizing and not much bloggin'!

Anyway.. some of my projects have gotten a little more involved than when I started. Case in point -- the bill paying organizer for the desk and the cute little storage box for the case, clip, charger and iPod I can no lonmger live without.

My inspiration for dressing up these containers with tags and ribbons and stickers came from a great site Hillary introduced me to: http://simplify101.com/ . LOTS of great ideas.

And before I go I must share one very funny Joe story. (Funny for those you who know him as the "quicker picker upper" like we do.) I have always wanted to organize my cookbooks better. He put them away into a built-in bookcase when we moved here and I have always thought they looked messy --even though they weren't. I realized that what was bothering me was they needed to be organized by HEIGHT -- for a better look on the shelf. So I took them all down and put them away my way and I must say I am sleeping better at night.

Joe comes over to survey my work and says -- and I quote -- "Don't you think that's a little bit anal???" Now I ask you -- is that not the pot calling the kettle......?
