I'm going to be real honest with you for a minute. I have a junk 'drawer' in almost every room. This meme really hit home with me. I definitely have a junk drawer in the kitchen and it definitely has almost everything listed in that post. We always had a 'junk' drawer...when I was growing up, it was where we kept the scissors and the tape---it was the most important drawer in the house! This week, I decided to give ours a good clean out. We've lived in this house for 13 years, so the junk drawers and closets and storage areas are very neglected. In the busy pace of life, who has time to manage the 'junk'?? I threw away an expired package of hot hands, expired box tops, lids off pens, half-gone packages of flower food, old batteries, and several other items that I am unsure of what they even were for to begin with. I tried to sort the often used things into a plastic container. Is that what everyone else does with their bread ties, and rubber bands and push pins and nails and clothes pins and matchbooks???? If you don't have a junk drawer, where do you store those valuables? Please tell me, I'm curious... Now, I have a desk in the guest room that has several drawers that need to be cleaned out...and I am also working on the bathroom storage...it has gotten completely out of hand....later, I will tackle all of the closets. I'm going to be productive, and take care of the stuff that I rarely have time to deal with.
