Nesting Syndrome

2008.03.26
Today it rained....

...so it was as good a time as any to get stuck into the abyss. I mean, bathroom cupboard.


I wake up on Wednesday morning to the sound of rain against the windows again, which I'm thrilled about. Being a water-saver (hah), I move my car out of the garage where it can get a free wash. Who said cleaning the car had to be difficult?

I have a list of 'holiday jobs' to get done during the next fortnight, the first of which being tackling the bathroom cupboard. I can't remember the last time I gave it a good clean-up, probably at least two years - a lot of empty bottles and junk had been collecting in the meantime. Thankfully (since I'm pedantic about things "having a place") this isn't the case anymore, as I threw out a lot of old products and reorganised the place. Admittedly I smiled when Matt had a shower the next day and did a double-take, wondering where everything was *smirk*. ;)

Who'd have thought I could devote a whole entry on here to cleaning? Photos of nature are much more interesting! :P

P.S. - My friend Sarah has just joined Photoblog, she lives in rural Western Australia and has some fascinating photos and stories to share. Go on over and make her feel welcome. :)

PaperWings NOOO! I love it! It's like watching a reality show on TLC. Extreme Make-over cupboard style. I am very OCD and anal, so I love to see things get organized and "in there place!"

Queen911 I'm impressed!! Yes I really could devote an entire blog for days with organizing my craft room.
#1 shot is my fav. The rain makes me feel as if I'm sitting at your window.

Peche I agree with Paperwings, it's great! I did the same thing about two weeks ago and it's so satifying to see the results :) And funny when you confuse your partner too ;) hehehe

genuinesqueak hehe thanks!
I wish i could get your motivation to clean... our bathroom cupboard is pretty bare tho, because Bailey gets into anything so everythings hidden.
Wanders off to think about cleaning the kitchen....

picturemom Hey good job on the organizing! There is a reason why most of my shots are outside.. my house never seems to be clean enough or organized enough!

AriesTyger Whoa! Nice job! Organizing is one of my favorite things to do. I like your use of baskets to segregate stuff. Very nicely done! And good idea on the free car wash. :)

ambersunsets Fun post. Motivation for this chore is hard to find, but the results are so rewarding.

focussed Look at all your cute little baskets and tubs!!.hehehe..Last year I went through a "tub" faze at work and organised jsut about the entire kinder into tubs./..mark says I have a tub addiction...I think you might also be a tubaholic judging from that last pic ;) It looks so orderly..perfect.

LotoFoto Very nice... could you come here and help me?? ;)
LotoFoto · 2008-03-27: 02:01
daniela You should make follow-up pictures to show for how long you guys can keep all that stuff in such organized way. In my experience, it won't last more than a week... maybe you can beat that record? Cheers!!

LostAspen Wow! Great job. Things do have a way of collecting under the bathroom sink.
