Oh dear... I don't know WHO's mess that is, because it surely can't be MINE!?!? ... Okay, I confess it is. Or, rather, it was.This is the before shot of my
Why am I showing you this? Good question. Because I feel better when I know other people struggle with the same things I do.
Basically, you're not perfect and I'm not perfect. Oh good! We have something in common! Yup .. that's why.

Aaaah. Much better.
This was several weeks ago and I already need to do it again ... but it's better ;)

Ooh, I know the feeling. So good to have it organized, and then I feel terrible to have it a mess 5 minutes later (although, I think I'm referring to anything in my kitchen). For deep cabinets, there are some real neat solutions at Ikea. I can't wait till it comes into our area!

Then, just slide it out partway, lift out the back thing you need, and slide it back in. Might even work with cardboard, like a sodacan carton. Maybe it would help. Kerry D.
