I am excited to be your personal organizing guide! As life changes from one season to another, so does your organizing journey. When I was young, I followed whatever my family taught me to do. I grew up where everything needed to be kept tidy and organized. Believe it or not, we each had our own plate, cup, fork, spoon, etc. You use it, you clean it. Each item has its own place. We moved multiple
times, but the same rule was applied in every house we moved into. From a hut in the mountain to a restaurant and house combo in the city to a two-storey house with a bakery at the back in a small town. By the time I was kicked out of the house, I felt free to do whatever I wanted. However, unknowingly, I was doing what I had learned growing up. Clean as you go. Put things back where they belong. Fast forward to 2009, I married a Canadian man, so I, together with my cute and energetic six-year-old daughter, packed our belongings and crossed continents and countries to be with my beloved husband. I was originally from the Pearl of The Orient - the Philippines. Marriage life entails adapting to each other. Since we came together as a blended family, we all had different organizing personality traits and styles. In the beginning, it was a rough journey. My daily anthem was: “Why can’t you just put your dirty clothes in the laundry basket?” Why can’t you put the cup in the sink or dishwasher?” Sounds familiar? Well, it took some years before I realized that we needed to adapt an organizing system that works for all of us. As I said earlier, organizing is a journey. As you go through different stages and seasons of life, you will learn what organizing system works best for your current lifestyle. I have been through it all, so I understand. I am here to be your personal organizing guide! Friend, let’s begin your organizing journey!
