I’ve been doing a long-overdue housecleaning, and here are some of the things I’ve found:

• At least half a dozen pens (including a Sharpie)
• The missing battery for my digital camera
• One earring
• My white baseball cap (yay!)
• A giant dark chocolate nonpareil that I bought, put aside, and forgot about (after eating its partner)
• A holiday card I forgot to open. Gee, what a cute baby, Ed!
• A gift I’d forgotten I got (a credit card wallet, which I desperately need to use)
• The card to my motor vehicle registration (I put the stickers on the plates and didn’t put the card in my wallet)
• A prescription for something I never filled, and don’t even know what it is. (Threw it away, since I couldn’t ID it.)

Things I lost:

• One earring (but I think I know where it is)

I have a long way to go. I’m really bad about clutter. But I think I’m going to get this done. After all, in all likelihood, I will be working from home soon. I need to have a clean and organized work environment. With cats.
