Look what I did... I work as a teacher and all of my co-workers are gone for the next few weeks.
I'm still in the office as my kids are also still in school. Next week I will have a holyday too. I decided it was about time to clean the office and I wanted to show you the before and after pictures. I am very happy with the result. However, I’m afraid things will be a mess again soon after they return in the office.

wow!!!! good work!
I have a friend who is a hoarder - she has the obsessive compulsive behaviour that prevents her from throwing anything away - "disposophobia" her place looks a bit like this: I've been working with her on clearing out all the things she doesn't need. She and her baby sleep on the floor in the living room, since the bedroom is so full of things you can't even get in there. The kitchen stinks - something is rotting in there but we can't even find it. The landlord and estate agent is doing an inspection on her apartment next wednesday :-O if she is evicted she will have to go into emergency housing which is where drug addicts get placed, terrible place for her and her baby. Tomorrow I'm spending the day helping her. She told me I was the light at the end of her very long dark tunnel I cried when I got off the phone to her | |

I heard a clean working environment is motivating. Maybe people will appreciate and try to keep it tidy. Maybe make a poster saying :
file lost : bugger tripped over box : ouch a clean desk : priceless or something. | |

I really like her company, she is a true friend to me. One of the few that listens to me and actually knows where I am coming from. These days I'm super grateful to have someone in my life like this. Helping her out means a lot to me. | |
