I used to have alot of clothing but after moving 5 times in 5 years I was in that point of my life where I gave alot away. Now that I am settle...every 6 months I purge, use it as rags or keep it for projects so I can keep my sanity. The only problem right now is to maintain my mail pile (I still can't conquer the problem...). My bedside table is a bookshelf but once in awhile I have to tackle it or else it drives me insane. <br />I have to give you alot of credits for pasting your jpegs though on the blog...thank you for showing us a glimpse inside your home. Yes we are normal!! =DAnniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12155058484199168829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-31388977611371491292009-04-18T00:26:00.000-07:002009-04-18T00:26:00.000-07:00I am a late come to this post, however in the proc...I am a late come to this post, however in the process of decluttering my life. Its all done in the apartment now (two storage areas outside to attend to though) EXCEPT my two wardrobes which I left till last. They are both packed to overfilling and haven´t been opened for months! (I am pregnant and relocated my clothes elsewhere for the duration). However, come a few weeks I will be baring it to my blog and downsizing :).

Our closets practically look like twins, except mine has more random stuff (crib bumper, Labyrinth on VHS, plastic sink drain pipe) on the floor, along with the clothes. It ain't pretty. I was just wondering; what books do you have there on the floor underneath your bedside table? :)theveryflowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941438437548862016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-72329320286519069352009-02-02T22:37:00.000-08:002009-02-02T22:37:00.000-08:00thank you everyone for not disowning me. i was rat...thank you everyone for not disowning me. i was rather embarrassed to put the picture up and almost didn't, but i wanted to show all of you my "bad" side too. i am definitely far from perfect and have my share of messes everywhere. <BR/><BR/>i am now in the process of cleaning my closet. i can't wait to show the after picture!<BR/><BR/>and for those wondering about my lighting, i didn't use anything but natural light peeping through my butcher paper covered windows (i still can't find something i like to cover the windows). i shot the pictures in manual and i have a nikon d40 (rather i borrowed my sisters as mine gets fixed). though the last picture (my closet) uses my sb900 flash. hope this bit of info helps.<BR/><BR/>here is to another messy monday in a couple weeks. maybe i will do it every first monday of the month. God knows I accumulate lots of messes in different places monthly!<BR/><BR/>and thank you to those who were brave along side me and share your messes! for those neat freaks who almost freaked out at my pictures... be sure to stop by those who shared their messes and gives us some messy ones some tips on how to be neat! or at least how to stay neat.<BR/><BR/>hugs to everyone!Rubyellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12665592531250476367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-61924121692499562792009-02-02T18:23:00.000-08:002009-02-02T18:23:00.000-08:00Hilarious!
