...and it isn't even spring.
Beautiful song from the movie "State Fair."
I am notorious for not putting things away. Sure I am CAPABLE of doing it but rarely put the careful thought into it. So paperwork and tools pile up, and every now and then I get into a situation where SOMETHING must be done to control the clutter. Spring Fever.
In my dining room there was no space on the table for using it as a dining room. Done.
In my home office I had papers and audio/video equipment on every surface. Done.
The workshop needs a cleanup, but I have been keeping that under reasonable control.
The garage needs a good once-over and that has already been started. On Saturday I can take old paint, pesticides, etc. to the hazardous materials drop off and that will be a tremendous improvement.
Now, if only I can KEEP things this way!! I know the solution is to examine the way I store things and continuously think of improvements. May take me a lifetime to think that way.

I find that everything is a matter of priority. A wife (Nancy in my case)helps prioritize things skewed toward cleanlinest and organization. (I know, I know, I just did a disservice to myself.)
It is surprising that you did not learn, while at Interlock, that the place had to be "inspection ready" at all times.
I do not believe for a minute that John requires Nancy to keep things organized. I have been there when he was in the midst of a major task and everything was in place. On the other hand, he takes a loooong time getting it done.
