Let’s Get Organized

I’m not the most organized person in the world.

I see your eyerolls – you know who I’m talking about.

OK.  I’m the LEAST organized person in the world – HAPPY NOW?

Downsizing was supposed to make that easier – having fewer places to get messy.

I WAS WRONG…

What I found is that there isn’t much room and I have to make the best with the space I have.  I have way too much stuff to fit into an apartment with very little storage space.  I have to make due with what I have but I’ll tell you it hasn’t been easy.  *IS THAT HOARDERS SHOW KNOCKING AT MY DOOR?* (hides week old pizza box) *whew*

I still don’t have an organizational system in my head so when I was offered the P-touch labelmaker by Brother to review I thought this might help me at least get it in my head where things should go.

*thonks head*

I started in the easy room – the kitchen.  I then spread out into the pantry / laundry room.

I didn’t really have shelves in the pantry / laundry room, so I purchased every wire shelf I could find that would fit to try to make more space.  They now go all the way to the ceiling and I need my 6 foot son to come over when I want to bake something.

He should visit his mother, right?

I loved that the labels fit around the wires like a banner.  Perfect look!

Yes I painted that casserole.  That was back when I thought I had talent. {shudders}

Brother makes it easy peasy and these laminated labels really stand up to a lot of wear and tear making them great for a kitchen.  You can choose your font and style – I love the italics.  That’s to emphasize the LOVE…

Turn the label maker on, type in your description, hit print.  Cut and label.  It couldn’t be any easier if it did it for you.

It almost does.

Next room?  The office.  Or the lack thereof. Which is why I need to label the heck out of everything.

  1. They make laminated labels now? That is something I need.

    Talk of label makers always reminds me of the Seinfeld “Re-gift” episode with the Label Baby Junior.

    Just don’t be like my dad and label the light switch ‘LIGHTS! That’s when you know you have a problem!
