MY DESK:
Behold my dining room table morphs into my desk ;-)
A third of the table is for eats.
The second third is for the laptop.
And the rest is for the "organized" piles.
My piles are somewhat neat and under control at the moment.
BOOK PILE:
1. new acquisitions to shelve
2. review books recently received
3. current tbr
4. books and dvds from the library
PAPER PILE:
1. magazine subscriptions - New Yorker, Entertainment Weekly, The Atlantic Monthly, Cooking Light
2. flyer for my upcoming chorus performance, Alexander Nevsky at Herbst Theater
3. film poster for Ready Player One
4. related material for the upcoming June vote
CRAFT PILE:
1. basket filled with embroidery paraphernalia

MY PLANNER:
I love using my Happy Planner for the daily, monthly and yearly planning of to-do's and to-go's.
FYI:
I read this book awhile ago and picked up great tips from it that I have incorporated and continue to do. The online YouTube video how-to's that go with her concept are helpful too.

After receiving a complaint from her attractive next-door neighbor about the sad state of her balcony, Chiaki gets Kondo to take her on as a client. Through a series of entertaining and insightful lessons, Kondo helps Chiaki get her home--and life--in order. This insightful, illustrated case study is perfect for people looking for a fun introduction to the KonMari Method of tidying up, as well as tried-and-true fans of Marie Kondo eager for a new way to think about what sparks joy.
