It's almost feeling like fall in my neck of the woods. I even went and got my obligatory pumpkin spice coffee the other day. It wasn't REALLY cool enough; but I needed coffee before tackling a major deep cleaning of my master bedroom; which is always the most neglected room of the house. It almost looks like a retreat now. Even the farthest reaches of under the king size bed have been vacuumed now. (Thanks to DH; I couldn't move the mattress myself. )
DH doesn't like clutter. He always fusses at me for leaving stuff on his dresser. But during my deep cleaning I counted 27 - TWENTY SEVEN - of his "work pens". Pens issued by his job. Approximately 7 were found under his dresser. But still; I am clearly not the only one cluttering up his dresser.
Do you tend to "collect" anything?
For me; it's notebooks and composition books. I find them all over the house and in various tote bags that go places with me. I did clear out the underside of my night table to store a lot of my notebooks and things. So that helps; but I still have a school stash for the kids both in the school room and a drawer in my closet designated for extra school supplies.
I do take some notes on my phone; but it's just not the same as a notebook with a good pen.
I also have a lot of mechanical pencils. More than we need for school; but those feel more justified because both kids are writing more these days. I have my own pen stash too. But that's not as out of hand yet. I gotta have stuff to write in all those notebooks with right!?
