I started with the pantry to warm up. I condensed 4 boxes of cereal into 2. (My biggest pet peeve is to have 2 of anything opened! Finish one and then open a new one!) I found another 2 boxes of cereal with just enough for a daycare snack. Juice boxes went to the fridge, no expired food, but a loaf of molding bread was pitched. I just straighten up the rest. I really should label the shelves. My helpers who put away groceries would know where things go:) Here is the before and after. The recycling bin is at the bottom. We have a larger one which is usually there. Hubby took the recycling, so it just wasn't back yet:) We normally have the garbage in there too beside the recycling. We are trying it elsewhere for now.
I have a dream that one day I will be "Ultimately Organized". Until that miraculous day comes, I will continue to try & fail, pile & file, find & loose things, remember & forget things ...and tell myself I'm getting organized:)
