Does everything in the house end up on MY desk?
I just realized I have like a 7 inch space on my desk for my mouse and THATS it!
Anyone else have this problem?

there is, lotion, scissors, remotes, tools, stamps, medicine, lighter fluid, checks, candles, bag of chips, deoderant.... I could go on and on!

The same thing always happens with my kitchen counter. It is ALWAYS a mess. When I clean it, it just becomes an invitation to put anything on it that I don't want to put away... so I end up with a mess again.


That's it. If I ever live with a man again, I'll need to find one that doesn't mind keeping the kitchen clean (and not complain about it).

Which means I might remain single for a looooooooooong time

Yeap... my dining table collects things too.. Also, as you walk in there are 2 steps that go into the dining room that used to be the original from porch before they made additions to the house and there is a brick stoop... THAT collects everything because its the first flat surface when you walk in the house...Right now there is my purse, soda cans, newspaper, mail, keys can of pringles, sunblock,mosquito spray, a towel... and a pair of shirts

My desk... goodness, let's see. 2 coffee cups full of pens, pencils, and misc. stuff, a lamp, my modem, router, 3 candles, medications, papers, ashtray, glasses, smokes, 2 lighter's, cup of coke, floppy disks, lotion, remote, perfume, microphone, clock, cd's, burnable cd's, books, a printer... I think that's it... Oh yea! My laptop, and a cat(he's behind the laptop, and that is the cleaniest space on here, mainly because if anything is there, he knocks it out of the way, or pushes it to the floor.


I guess Boots is cleaner than I am.

Just a tip - I have tried to start a 'don't put it down, put it away' policy - more for myself than for BF - it does help, but if you're like me and you have more stuff than space, just accept that at least one room will have to be the storage space room (ie hold everything that doesn't go anywhere else)
