It's really small, so it's just stuffed to the top with socks and a couple of pairs of fishnet stockings.

Has very few socks in it. Some stockings, lacy undies and a couple of fancy soaps to make it smell good. And I hide a stash of extra money in there when I don't want the roomies to know I still have cash.

It's my socks and underwear drawer, and it's the top left drawer of my dresser. It's currently really messy and piled up to the point where I can't see my alarm clock because I haven't had a chance to sort out all of the old clothes yet.

Kinda like this (http://www.organizingla.com/organizingla_blog/images/rubbermaid_container.jpg)

I usually wrap the guys at the top and toss them in haphazardly. Although I have a shoebox for dress socks.

all of the drawers in my house have drawer organizers, you should see my closet, it's organized by color and style of clothing with these thingies.

Wow. I really wish I could do that. I used to hang up my t-shirts in order by colour, but then I started to fold them instead and put them on the top shelf of my closet, but yeah, my clothes are not stored in what you would call an organized manner.

That's sort of alluring...

Tell me more, please! :)

Smunkee scares me.

I was in need of a vice, after trying all the rest of them, cutting, abusing drugs, drinking to excess, eating disorders, and generally spending money unwisely, I decided that uber-organization was probably the best to pick.

Mine is a huge drawer - top of the dresser. Underwear on the left, Socks on the right, "fancy lacy things" and bras in a basket beside the dresser.

We took the 4th bedroom and made it into the laundry room and communal closet ( Me, Husband and 5 year old son ). I'm not nearly as organized as Smunkee but I love having all the dressers in one place and all the wall space is covered with shelves. Keeps the bedrooms much cleaner. =)

But since we don't live that far apart, maybe you could come and organize things for me.

Though I must admit to shelving my books by subject and alphabetizing by author. But I swear that's my only uber-neat trait. I worked at the library.

When I move into a more permanent abode (i.e. when I stop being a student and find a real job) can you come organize my house for me?

I would love to come help you get organized, it's a stress reliever for me. I would also love to come hang out with you anyway, because you and I have similar Oklahoma mental health type experiences. ;)

Tell me more, please! :)I have on occassion hidden porn there. But my roomies are very innocent young fellows and would never look for anything in my "unmentionables."

Oh, I get it. The cash is the alluring part.:D

I would love to!

Although, I should probably pimp the book I am writing about how to get organized on a budget....but I won't.

Yay! Although this probably won't be for quite a while... especially if I end up going for a PhD (though if I take off out of the country for that that might limit the amount of stuff I end up having to organize).

And you probably should write a book about this since you seem to be good at it. Or you could try getting a job with Clean Sweep.

The library is about to kick me off the internet, but I'd like to get in touch. I'm about an hour east of OKC. TG me, Smunkee.

i'm very ocd about my "sockdrawer", if you wish to call it that


everything has a place, and even each sock has a particular place within the sock area, same with boxers, night shirts, dress socks, etc.


all my shirts that I wear during the day are hung up, with each one going directly in its spot

my shirts always stay in the same pattern


i find it comforting

Once upon a time, my sock drawer was neat. Then I started moving an average of twice a year. Now my sock drawer is overflowing. *sigh* I must get it back under control.

Smunkee, that is simply awesome.
