    That only works if there is somewhere that's "away". "Away" takes space and cash ....

    If everything has a home, fine, but, for many, there is nowhere that things actually belong properly.

    Sadly, it appears that I am the first to go for messy home!
    Three bedrooms, two retired persons.
    We do mean to sort it, eventually.
    I could be doing a bit right now, but here I am.

    Oh I do love these cupboards of shame and doom! They make my house feel comfortably normal!

    I have a tiny occasional table beside my armchair. It was meant to house my current library book and an occasional cup of tea. I've just currently counted 17 separate items on it including a packet of onion seeds and a dental tooth pick! Tomorrow's clearing up job ! I need a good night's sleep to prepare me for working out where I can move them on to !!

    That is because life is too short!

    Hope is not a strategy :D...A child is for life, not just 18 years....Don't get me started on the NHS, because you won't win...I love chaz-ing!
  • We have a cupboard of doom :o:rotfl:

    Same here. We have a cupboard under the stairs which is full to the brim. I tidy it up every Friday but its messy as soon as the door gets opened and stuff falls out and gets shoved back in. We also have one kitchen drawer that all the odd bits get shoved into. I'm often surprised what I actually find in there some times:rotfl:.
