Didn't you know that I'm famous?
Yep.
(DISCLAIMER: THIS POST IS NOT FOR THE OCD. Mom, you might have a heart attack)
Well, ok. Not really. But I could have been on an episode of Hoarders this week. I was, just without the video cameras... Which is a shame really because Traci and I had some great commentary for the loads of crap we hauled.
So. We got sent to Lake City with one of our bosses to help that staff person to clean and organize their supply closet. Easy enough we think, oh sure, we'll be back by lunch time. HA! Big FAT Ha!
The trash was unbelievable.
Piled to our waists. And the "supply closet" aka trash can was One in One out. (Now, no one likes One in One out, especially at the bar, but it might be worse when its somethin you have to clean)
So out went the 1997 employee handbooks. And the statistics from 2001. And the random carriage. And 2 bags stuffed full of Santa hats. And used nail files (BAGS OF THEM!). And Old decorations. And a box of pita chips. And broken glass (not a fun surprise). And old pictures of people wearing 'awesome' clothing.
30 bags of trash and 4 hours later we had a nearly empty closet.
Then it was time to organize and actually use the shelves (novel concept) So Traci and I spent our time labeling and boxing up things that ACTUALLY went together!! (placemats with placemats not old christmas lights!)
We had fun giggling about all the stuff this woman "NEEDED!!!" but ended up getting coerced into throwing away anyways.
Made us grateful for our clean offices and being able to keep things organized and clean. (yes mom and dad, I said I was organized and clean. That room at your house is my evil,messy twin.)
So, Out with the old and in with the new!!
And boy do we wish we had a before and after photo... just imagine hoarders minus the cat bodies. (thank god)
Happy Spring Cleaning!!
