One thing I find myself doing all too often is picking something up, not knowing where to put it, then putting it somewhere else to get to “later.”

Not only do I get a false sense of accomplishment by feeling like I organized a bit, but future me ends up finding things in the most random places.

This seems way more intentional than just piling onto any random surface available throughout the house. I gotta look into some baskets now!

ah, a fellow pile maker

i have adapted to this by placing baskets in places i am most likely to pile 

then when i have the urge to hyperfocusclean i just go to all the baskets and empty all the things

My fam’s strategy is a big drawer in the kitchen that we lovingly call “the hell drawer” that contains all little things we aren’t sure where to put but need to go somewhere.

If you can’t find something, it’s probably in the hell drawer.
