My housecleaning methods are to make such a mess that you have to do SOMETHING !! I do remember I once got a certificate for being an “outstanding housekeeper” or something... I framed it quickly—it is around somewhere... that was before computers a... now I could print up all kinds of diplomas etc... how frighting is that???
I just pulled everything out of the kitchen cabinets- and it is sooooo cluttered I can’t even make coffee...
However... there is a learning process.... priorities and sorting are a science themselves... I need to be able to locate the coffee and mug by staggering blindly in the dark, locating the cereal box is not nearly as critical.
Then there is the “enabling objects” for which there is no substitute’... like a can opener... and with fewer smokers... matches are no longer the ubiquitous objects THEY ONCE WERE....
RIGHT NOW I HAVE A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING ALL OVER THE PLACE.
AND IF I CAN JUST GET MY OLD REFRIG OVER HERE, IT CAN BE THE TOTAL PANTRY- WHERE I KEEP ALLLLLLL FOODS.. IT THEN BEING RAT PROOF... WINTER IS COMING... THEY WILL RETURN FROM THE FOREST FOR THE WINTER.......
MY ? ANTIQUE? STAINLESS MILK CANS ARE TERRIFFIC AS DOG FOOD HOLDERS.... I AM TRYING FOR NOTHING EATABLE OUTSIDE THE FRIDGE.
