In reply to J. Money. I swear my 6 year old has more stuffed animals than I have worldly possessions of every category combined.

I thought the same thing with that question!!! Haha… definitely not scientific enough as many of us ARE decent at organizing but it’s those around us who try to mess up our game ;) I swear I’m going to count all my things one day and see just how many I have compared to the rest of the household, haha…

I’m a Ladybug! “Ladybugs are generally stressed out by surface clutter and like to keep their living space clean and clutter free. You know you’re a ladybug if your surfaces are clean and tidy but your junk drawer is overflowing and you would be really embarrassed if guest ever opened your closets.”

Yup, this is me. Visual clutter drives me absolutely nuts, and if I can’t properly organize things I will shove them behind closed doors. Most of my closets are fairly organized, but please don’t look in my hall closet or laundry room! (Also I had to fudge the “biggest organizing challenge” question – the real answer to that is my husband and kids!)

How fun! I wonder what they’d think of the movement if they started poking around more… Falling into it naturally would be so amazing and don’t know that many people that have, haha… Most of us need some good encouragement/ass-kicking :)

I did my own Tidying Up project this spring, and wrote about it for my newspaper, Wausau City Pages. I ended up interviewing someone local who had been doing KonMari for years, and was basically a minimalist, and had never heard of FIRE! (And was very intrigued when I explained it – he and his family were practically living FIRE without knowing it.) I never thought of myself as particularly messy, but I was surprised at how much I got rid of through the process. And I was also surprised at how nice it felt having fewer things and having the place really tidy.

In reply to J. Money. Yep; two of them. I can close the door of my son's room. A bit harder with husband. He hoards and clutters half of the space(s) we share. I try not to look at his half. Basically, most of the time I'm in angst that is hard to contain :).
