Even an organizer can get piles!
Oh yes,
I know, I know people expect that because I organize people for a living that I’m totally clutter free. Well, I’d hate for you to see my desk right now. I’m having a case of piles. Like I always say, there’s always a reason. It doesn’t just happen. I’ve been sick with a bad summer cold for 6 days. I had to cancel my whole week’s worth of appointments and stay in bed for a good part of the time.
I did check my e-mail and phone messages every day. I also did some writing and work on my new blog site. But frankly, the cast aside client files, the mail and e-mail I printed out is lurking about. I simply did not want to deal with it.
I always smile knowingly when people tell me they know just what’s in their piles. Often when we go through the papers they inevitably discover something they had been looking for. I did sort my stuff before I dropped it, so the bills are with bills, stuff to be filed on one end of the desk and ‘to do’s’ all together. And I do know when I will tidy up;
on Tuesday afternoon when I have a few hours to be in my office. It shouldn’t take too long……
