2x3

i spent an hour or so the other night cleaning out our junk drawer. 

it had gotten to be a disaster. a 2x3 disaster. 

chargers, batteries, pens, rubber bands, take out menus & other usual suspects. 

along with golf tees, sunscreen tubes, cameras and medication for our puppy. 

something had to be done. the drawer would barely close.

so, i buckled down. 

i took everything out & sorted through the randomness. 

some things were trashed, some stored elsewhere {where they should have been}

& some put back in the drawer itself. 

at the end of the hour, an organized masterpiece. 

i was happy while cleaning out that drawer. 

seeing the bottom of the drawer & the rubber bands in one place 

made me sigh with contentment. 

i never would have thought i would have gotten so much satisfaction 

from cleaning out a junk drawer. 

more of this needs to happen in my daily life. 

more cleaning, more decluttering, more sorting & more organizing. 

not necessarily in large chunks. no. 2x3 sections will do just fine.
