I'm recovering from some stupid injuries, struggling to stay on top of school and work, and worst of all, I'm living out of boxes and am too disorganized to find a darned thing.
I moved into a house with an acquaintance about two months ago and I've been too busy to unpack. The house was already furnished with her things and so most of my stuff is unneeded. I've got boxes on top of boxes tucked into random corners of the house or stuffed forcefully into closets. I can't find anything. I can barely move around in my upstairs bungalow space.
I'm not much better in my car or my office either. My car still has stuff in it from the move too. I couldn't begin to tell you what's in the trunk. My desk/cubicle looks, and has always looked like a bomb went off in it.
When I'm too messy to pack a lunch or to find a pair of socks when I need them, I go buy new ones. When I can't find receipts or keep track of my budget, I spend more money than I should. When the tower of books is lopsided, I purchase more.
I've decided that a major part of getting financially secure is going to be getting organized and de-cluttering my life. This is probably going to be a huge challenge.
The cube at finals time. |
