Sweet, sweet organization

--This is day 4 of "The 7 Last Days of Summer"--

I love organizing things.

I love the fact that I have my own room. I love that I can organize anything I want, in any way I want, so I know how to find everything quickly. I love the fact that I can re-organize any of my old systems if I want to try something new. I love the fact that I can organize.

If you are not organized, then I do not understand you. It's as simple as that.
I am constantly confused how people can live, read, eat, breathe in un-organized spaces. How can they concentrate knowing they didn't put their clothes away?
How can they study knowing that they could clean that pile up in just a few minutes?
How can they walk into a room, look down and not see the ground?
How can they step on something, not know what it was, and move on?
How can they breathe in a room that can't?

No matter how organized you are, after a while things tend to get un-organized.
That is where all the fun comes in. I try to re-organize everything at least once a year. Now, I'm a student so I tend to run on school years rather than real years. So, I try to re-work everything before I start school. And today, I finished.
There's something about a really clean room. Everything in my room is currently perfect, (if for some reason you change that, you will die) and I mean perfect.



The books are in their perfect order, and ready to accept their future friends from the upcoming book sale.

The drawers are all perfectly neat with nothing crowding anything else, and everything laying comfortably.

The school books/papers/folders/pens/pencils are all organized by class and ready for use in the backpack.

The tucker-tote has been completely emptied and refilled.

The green thing has also been emptied and re-worked.

The shoes have all been placed in their perfect cubbies.

The beaters have all been rolled into place.

The clothes have all been carefully re-hung to their correct space.

And I am happy. Really, truly happy.
And I am content. Really, truly content.


Next week: Dusting and Vacuuming on the same day! Life can't possibly get better.
