<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I was browsing through some craft blogs while lamenting to my mom about how hopeless I am at arts and crafts<span style="background-color: white;">.</span><span style="background-color: white;">I recalled, how as a child I used to struggle to get my origami correct in the craft class. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Some people are just so crafty... I guess I am just too messy to be good at it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Nevertheless, my mother brought out this Artist's case I have been holding on to since I was in school. It was a present from someone and I used it for a while but never to its full potential. So, for the past few years it was just gathering dust in some closet or the other. </div>

I had a pair of military jungle green shoes which I wore pretty regularly for a few years.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZAksVGweksrG8J0ihXCeSlQ6b6md1Do-a_1as7GYyU2w7Ye9H9M4vE-k05Y60nIlog6AIXipJ4q6V_TTvplJ7N0ayGy0KeWos7Z6g84UUrA_Cw7eZUMdYtP30o8AMs0vf05mz9U-1hw/s1600/DSC04340.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZAksVGweksrG8J0ihXCeSlQ6b6md1Do-a_1as7GYyU2w7Ye9H9M4vE-k05Y60nIlog6AIXipJ4q6V_TTvplJ7N0ayGy0KeWos7Z6g84UUrA_Cw7eZUMdYtP30o8AMs0vf05mz9U-1hw/s400/DSC04340.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The pair looked great with my dressing style back then. But now when I look at my wardrobe there is barely anything which would match with these shoes.<br />
<br />
So I made the executive decision to donate them.<br />
<br />
I used to love these shoes... but as they say... sometimes you just fall out of love.</div>Miss Messyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14536549880463617740noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34331551287580948.post-36819619553028145642012-06-13T09:26:00.000-07:002012-06-13T09:26:10.358-07:00Tossing Paper Piles - my baby steps<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to me, paper piles are the most difficult mess to tackle. The speed at which papers keep piling up... here and there... every possible corner of my room, closet, drawers, bags.... it's just impossible to keep up the pace and file them or toss them out.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, as a new rule, I try to confront the paper clutter and toss out as many papers I can whenever I see a pile. I just pick up the obvious papers that can be tossed out right away. Here's the first set of paper clutter which I managed to toss out:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I made a small list of my achievement:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>A really old greeting card</li>
<li>Lyrics of the song - Something Stupid</li>
<li>A printout of some fonts</li>
<li>My examination hall tickets and their duplicates of 5 years. (Two of them were from the time I was in school!)</li>
<li>User Manual of an old TV which we no longer own</li>
</ol>
<div>
So when are you tackling your paper piles?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Glamorous food shots on magazine covers can be deceptive. Very deceptive! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I can't even remember the number of times I have saved up some random magazine just for the recipes featured in it. I have had so many magazines lying around the house, hidden deep in chest of drawers... here and there... waiting to see the kitchen light! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, most of us never cook any of these recipes. We just hoard recipes. Even when we hoard recipes, we are not diligent enough to cut the recipe and save it in a folder or a box. We keep the entire magazine! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
On second thoughts, Pinterest is the most delicious way for everyone to store their favorite recipes. In these digital times, why cut recipes when you can just pin them online?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So here I was with a few magazines I found lying around since 2010. <span style="text-align: left;">Now, I don't wish to hold on to 40 pages of random advertorials for 2 pages of genuine recipes! So, I cut the recipes I think I really would tryout some day and for the rest of the magazine.... well it goes to the recycling centre!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Now, I still have some recipe cut outs.... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Well... those are still a work in progress... will keep you posted on their developments too.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Till then, please share what's your</span><span style="text-align: left;"> system to keep food magazines from piling up? Do you transfer recipes to a file/binder or do you have an online collection on Pinterest?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was cleaning an old office hand bag of mine and every zip in that purse had business cards. It was a big collection! My question is - What do you do with this big pile of business cards? If the business contact is important, I already have their contact information in my email or my smart phone or on Linkedin. Moreover, if an opportunity lies for me in those cards, I am not going to grab it if the cards are not sorted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So to begin with, I decided to weed out the ones which I am positive I don't need anymore. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, if the card fit in any one of the following category, I threw it out:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li style="text-align: justify;">The person had changed jobs, companies, cities or numbers</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The person had shared more than 1 business card with me by mistake</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">A business card I accepted out of courtesy and I am sure I am never to do any business with them</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The company on the business card has shut down</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;">The card belonged to a beauty salon where I had a horrible experience (I found 2 such cards!)</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So there I was with a bunch of visiting cards finding their way to my dust bin! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Feels so good throwing out even the smallest of things that create mess. Trust me, my hand bag feels so much lighter now!</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My preference in music really
depends on my mood and also on my current life scenario. My ups and the downs! I enjoy my music more,
when I hear a song and every single word perfectly describes my situation. Sometimes
music just says words that I am too afraid to admit. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The flip side to having this kind
of taste is that after a while, when I have moved on in life, some of these
songs don’t appeal to me anymore. At times, I relate them to some bad
experiences or people or memories which I never want to visit again. So whenever
such a songs plays on my itunes, I just skip it. So on an average, the ratio of
songs I hear to the songs I skip on my itunes would be 1: 15 or 1:20. On second
thoughts, I don’t even listen to 5% songs on my Ipod. I would rather listen to
the radio and let the radio jockey decide which song I should listen to.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now there is nothing wrong about
having a good music collection. It’s just that I don’t want to be a music
hoarder. I live in a house, which hosts a music collection of 3 generations in
the form of records, cassettes, audio CDs and a lot of digital music on a
desktop. The amazing part is that we don’t have a record player, or a music
player which can play cassettes or CDs. The only place where music can be heard
is through the computer or television! So basically, I have shelves and drawers
full of music in forms which are not longer practical! Plus I have 5 GB of
music on my laptop and some 15 GB on my desktop.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So I decided, today’s task is to
clean up my music library on my laptop atleast. Digital decluterring!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It took me about 2 hours and listening
to bits and pieces of hundreds of songs, I finally had a music collection which
I would enjoy listening to. I managed to delete 235 songs and my music folder
is now lighter by atleast 1 GB! Yay to me! It’s a time consuming boring
process, but trust me, having space for new music is a much better feeling!</div>

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Marlyn Monroe once said something really wise about shoes and I quote, “Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">If you have a great pair of
shoes, you know you are going places. But what if you are stuck with a wrong
pair??? Well, that’s exactly what happened to me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Around 8 years ago (8 years is a
rough vague estimate!)… I bought a pair of white and pink Nike Shoes. It wasn’t
an impulse purchase but then I never really needed it either. At one point of
time, I had sports shoes from almost all big brands – Reebok, Addidas,
Sketchers and Nike. No, I wasn’t into any form of athletics…. Nor did I workout
or go for walks… I was just a shoes curator! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Over the years, I managed to wear
all these shoes… except the Nike pair. That pair was just like bad luck for me.
Every single time I wore it, I tripped, fell on my face and twisted my ankle. They
just didn’t feel right for me. So, even though they kept saying, “Just do it!
Wear me”, all I really did was “Just ignore it!” </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">For 8 long years, I wore them
almost never, cleaned it at times and changed its location in my shoe closet a
lot of times… always trying to hide it in the back. But a few days ago, I attempted
to wear them for my workout session. 2 seconds into them, I was uneasy. I removed
them and finally made a decision. These shoes need to find a new owner. I couldn’t
hold on to a pair any longer. It doesn’t make sense that it occupies so much space
in my precious shoe closet. I had to donate it to someone who had smaller feet
than me. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So finally, there I was. Bidding adieu
to the imperfect pair and taking my first step towards decluttering and
reducing my mess!</span></div>
