Daily Diary: Office Clean-up and Makeover Time

My office has looked like a room in an episode of Hoarders for about 3 months now. This morning I woke up and just have had it. There’s lots of stuff that I don’t have control over in my life, and well… this is something I do have control over. I grabbed about 5 trash bags, 5 empty boxes and went to town this morning!

I cleaned and organized for 3 straight hours. I created bins for things. I tossed out stuff I’ve never used. I organized all my shelves. I emptied box after box after box. And if felt freaking good! It was absolutely time.

I am happy to say that my office is now workable and liveable again…

And the best part. I bought this frame about 3 years ago. It’s been sitting on my desk like this for a year…

And well, you know… I just thought it was time to replace the strangers with me and Matty. This photo is one of my all-time faves of us. It was taken at a friend’s wedding right after we got engaged in the summer of 2000. Oh, man… I’m so tan. I love it.

Aww… Mattyboy! It’s funny because I posted this on Facebook and one of my friend’s mentioned that I needed to put a photo of the 4 boys in there. I purposely added Matty and me because we’ve been through so much in the last 6 weeks, that I thought it was only appropriate to make it the 2 of us. All of this and all of what we have together is because 2 people fell in love…
