Look At My Space #2

Welcome to the second installment of Look At My Space. I appreciate you stopping by. Last week I showed you my own disorganized space. Knowing that I would have to check in this week made me want to work. Unfortunately, it was a holiday weekend, so actually getting anything done was nearly impossible.

My week went something like this:

Wednesday: I snagged a plastic bin from my girls’ room and used it to start sorting the stuff on my desk. Bills, pens and pencils, and other household related stuff I want to keep handy.

Thursday: I needed to find an account number first thing in the morning, so I went through the piles and started pulling out all the mail and got rid of some of the garbage.

Friday: I didn’t get as much time as I wanted, so just a few things off the top of the pile were tossed.

Saturday-Monday: My husband was home, the car wasn’t working, and I stayed distracted with other things pretty much all weekend.

Tuesday: I played catch-up around the house and didn’t take any time for my space at all.

As of right now, my desk looks like this:

I suppose it is slightly better than it looked last week, but still needs a lot of work.

I also never got around to any work on the piles of boxes in my bedroom. That’s where I plan on starting today. Over the weekend, we were given two of these:

I figured they would be perfect for storing my supplies in and on. Right now they are sitting in my dining room. If I don’t get my bedroom space cleared out and make room for them soon, my husband will claim them for his “man cave” instead, and I will be out the storage space. Talk about motivation for getting to work.

What does your space look like this week? Leave a comment with a link so we can check it out.
