I Love Organizing!

I love organizing. There, I admitted it. Thoughts of alphabetizing, categorizing, arranging and de-cluttering are enough to make my palms sweaty, my heart beat faster and my knees weak. Apparently I'm in love... ;)

I currently own over 600 books and when I'm alphabetizing and organizing them by category, I feel like I've found my calling in life. I do the same for my clothes, DVDs, and anything else that appears to be remotely organizable.

While I was happily browsing through Pinterest this morning, I came across a pin called " How I Organized My Entire Life and I just had to check it out. It led me to a blog post that was worth reading.

So, my fellow organizers, what is it about organizing that gives such satisfaction? Maybe we are all scatterbrained and forgetful and organizing is the only thing we are able to be in control of. Or maybe we were all born with an innate desire to set things right; put things in order.

As for all of the non-organizers out there, I can't really give you a reason why we do it - but even though we may drive you crazy sometimes, when we come behind you and re-do what you've already done, you know you need us.

After all, without the organizers, this world would be much too chaotic to live in! :)
