susandennisWe have 16 people for Elbow Coffee. Rarely do we ever get the full 16. Today we had 15 and the chatter was lively. A lot of it was about computers. I kept my mouth shut tight. An planned my closet organization in my head. Everyone (except Bonny) expected me to jump in with answers to their questions. I did not. No one asked me anything directly so I had no reason to be rude. Just silent. Bonny did praise me after for my restraint (and then asked me why her iPhone no longer had the screen she liked on it - but she knows I don't 'do' Apple).
So after and after I got some lunch, I went into the closet. My arms are really closet tired. My left arm is no longer interested in putting hangars on the top rods. My right arm said ok but not to get carried away.
I reduced the hangings by 17 items and there are another 5 that are on the cusp. Also two pair of shoes bit it. All the detritus is now bagged up and in the trolley to go down to the donation bin this afternoon. The summer stuff is in the far corner. The solids are together, the favorites are in front with the pants. The jackets, vests and hoodies are in their own section. The summer shoes are up high. The favorite shoes are on the bottom. The ones most likely to be culled next are in the middle.
I have clear plastic boxes coming Monday and I know where they are going to go and what they are going to house (bras, panties, socks). I have hooks for both my swim suits and both my swim bags.
The ironing board makes a perfect table when needed - half or whole and rolls easily into its garage out of the way when done. Also it will be easy to iron anything quickly.
It is the perfect closet for me. And now it's organized and I love it. Next up, go through all the drawers on the shelves in the storage unit and organize them and toss out what I no longer need. That will not be today. My closet arms seriously need a rest.
