I was off to a good start trying to do a little cleaning up around here. I was pretty focused … for the first two weeks.
At this point I’m looking at complete failure.
But the month isn’t over yet. We do have a long weekend coming up, so maybe I’ll be able to get rid of a few messes here and there.
I’ve got a bit of an emergency situation going on in my closet. I’ve pulled out nearly all of my fall/winter shoes without storing the spring/summer ones. It just took me 15 minutes to find a match to one of my shoe options for tomorrow. (Yes, I have options planned. It is raining now, and tomorrow’s weather will influence my decision.)
Did I clean up any shoes during my search?
Nope. Just moved them around.
See, I have an idea in my head to catalog all of my shoes. I want to build a shoe database. (Yes, I am a dork.) And I’ll be teaching myself a new (to me) technology in the process.
What I’m teaching myself will be helpful for my job, so it’s not just something goofy. But it will probably take a while to get a system in place. I’ve been putting off organizing my shoes because I want to build my database first.
I think it’s getting too bad to wait, though. I may have to start with a spreadsheet!
I’ve tried making a database of my clothes/shoes before… then picking out my outfits for a whole month. Loved the database but didn’t have similar feelings toward the planned-out-ness of my daily dress.
Good luck with learning that! It didn’t think it was too hard to pick up… if you’re using that one program that I cannot remember the name to.
