I'm driving every nuts trying to keep it clutter free. My boys now (lovingly) tease me and say, "Uh, oh. Look out, don't put anything on Mom's home base zone..."Susan Kelly Skitthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13871921369901815459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2778579980174748023.post-20953130927336000462007-08-26T10:06:00.000-04:002007-08-26T10:06:00.000-04:00Where: the kitchen floor <BR/><BR/>What: hubby's shoes and dirty socks<BR/><BR/>Why: Because that's where he puts 'em when he gets home from a hard day of work.

Oh yeah, the sweeper and mops are in there too. The floor is as cluttered as the shelves.Susan Kelly Skitthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13871921369901815459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2778579980174748023.post-27709326754174067002007-08-01T10:59:00.000-04:002007-08-01T10:59:00.000-04:00Where: The dining room table<BR/>What: piles of paper/books/mail/everything!<BR/>Why: we throw the mail there when it comes in, then open it and throw it back. I do homework there. Clean my purse there. dh puts receipts there. We both Lay stuff there when we bring it in. The busier we are the worse it gets! And it drives me nuts!Debbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10305385853090391146noreply@blogger.com
