Ultimate Drawer Organization

It all started from a conversation at book club when Barb started talking about a book that she was using to help organize her home.

Although I knew I wouldn’t be able to complete the entire rigorous routine, there was one part that stuck with me: How to organize a draw or shirts!

My boys’ shirts are a mess. This is NOT a posed picture!

They have far too many t-shirts. They get them from Frenchys, travelling, as hand-me-downs – and they love them all!

I tried to put the most recently worn ones on the bottom so they would wear the ones on the top to cycle through them, but NO! They just paw through them finding the one they want, leaving a disaster in their wake!

That is until I learned this simple new method!

Remove all the shirts from the drawer.
Try to part with at least a few!
Then, I folded the shirts and rolled them so the print was showing on the top.
Then, I placed the shirts in neat rows!

Now, when they open their drawers, they can easily see all of their shirts at once and pick the one they want to wear without making a mess!

What a difference!

Setting World Records

Making World Records

When my husband was a child, he loved to sit and read the Guinness Book of World Records. It is no wonder then, that he is now a walking encyclopedia!

You can imagine his delight when our sons started to show an interest.
Out came all his old books, and they started buying the new editions.

For his birthday, the boys and I scrounged used book stores to get copies of old volumes that he didn’t have yet.

Story times often involve reading the Guinness Book of World Records.
They quiz one another at supper time.

So, when Daniel (8) said he wanted to break a world record, it came as no surprise.

Besides, Thomas and I were have certificates from 2012 when we joined with K-Rock 89.3 to be the “Most People Playing Musical Instruments at Once in a Parking Lot” on RecordSetter’s World Record Day on April 28, 2012. It was very cold, very windy, but we were brave and made a lot of noise anyway!

And, we did it!

Here’s the video proof!

Daniel came up with his own record that he wanted to set.

The fastest 120 foot run juggling 2 croquet balls.

Here’s the proof:

And he did it! He set the record.
He was a very happy and proud boy!

According to RecordSetter.com, there are millions of records waiting to be set.
On the website, they list some basic guidelines to ensure your world record stands out.

What will your record be?
