Disorganized! - Being to disorganized can lead to one's life 
not only becoming stressful, 
but can also lead to one falling behind! . .
For the most part I'd like to consider myself quite an organized person. I know that I usually try to keep things as clean/organized as possible. And I like to have a system where everything is put away in little folders & then I will use sometimes labels & put them on the front of the cover.. Just so I know exactly what is in that folder. I know that before I had started doing this that there we're papers absolutely everywhere. It got to the point where me & my other half couldn't find what we we're looking for. I think I started becoming more organized when my birth certificate all of a sudden ended up going missing. I remember how I had panicked so much when this had happened & I swore to myself that I would try to be much more organized after having to go through an experience such as that one.. It sucks when you have to replace items because of the fact that you we're to disorganized & ended up forgetting where some things we're & where you had put them as well.. There are times though where my old habit will kick in.. And I'll be in a hurry looking for something that I need at that moment in time.. And I will end up getting so frustrated so I will start pushing things everywhere, & the next thing I know I suddenly have ended up becoming one of the most disorganized people on this earth. I know that recently our drawers in our bedroom have become all to messy & I know that we are falling back in to our old habits again.. So I know I need to clean out some of those drawers & get us back on track.. I do find though that our cupboards are rather organized, as are our finances since I do the budgeting. But I do know that I personally need to work on keeping our closet much more organized. But at the same time the drawers a little bit more organized to. I think these are the things that we need to work on the most.. On the other hand I think I am doing quite well on keeping us organized when it comes to things in general.. I know that my other half used to be incredibly disorganized.. So now I end up usually using post it notes so that he will remember things. I also do it for myself as well since sometimes I tend to forget things all to easily.. Especially when I am stressed out.. But when it comes to helping to keep my other half on the same wave length as me I will.. For example create sticky notes & put them in spots in the kitchen or in the bedroom where he is able to see them.. I find they have made him a lot more organized since I've done this for him because they've become quite nifty reminders. I find it has helped us as well to get a lot of things done a lot quicker than before.. In conclusion.. I think I am fairly an organized person, but I believe that there is always room for improvement when it comes to being more organized.. I know that I don't try to be perfectly" organized." But I find as long as the area I am in is safe, as well as sanitary then it makes a whole heck of a lot of a difference.. I know that I am going to try to organize more things more often as I find if I do this then it will be much easier for me to find things.. As well as my other half instead of us looking for hrs. on end for the things we may need on that specific day. Thanks for allowing me to share! xx

I am so organized it's sad lol. I can't stand it when I can't find something, so everything has it's place. I don't even have a "junk" drawer. But I will say when I need something I know exactly where to look for it.

Organized, hmmmmmmm what is that? Oh yeah, that is when you can find things right away. You know where they are and don't have to go look for paperwork. I fail so much on being a organized person. I can't stand to throw anything away. That would be alright if I had a system for keeping them. But no organizing is not in my cup of tea.
