i can organize just about anything, but absolutely can not keep anything organized. Seems that God only gave me the "how to organize" and "take it out" genes! The 'maintain organization" gene (aka; the put it back gene") was never activated.
I have to set a specific time to put things away, and that usually happens before we have company. Or when all the fabric scattered around the house (no sewing room) starts to overwhelm me. Any other time, my house looks like a fabric store exploded...
