a little thing

So I have a lot of pet peeves, I guess I am easily annoyed. One of which is when things in drawers roll around all helter skelter. This is not just a junk drawer, makeup drawer, or scrapbooking drawer thing for me, it applies to all drawers. In fact, I probably find and use little containers inside most of the drawers in my house. Not only am I irritable, I guess I am OCD too! Anyway, I have been trying to keep my refrigerator really tidy lately so things don't get lost and therefore spoiled. I had an "a ha" moment last week when I was trying to find some string cheese for the kids... picture me digging through the depths of turkey and salami while balancing Tanner in one arm...I grabbed an empty cottage cheese container and whodathunkit? String cheeses fit in there perfectly! The container is the perfect size, I can still close the drawer easily. No more runaway cheeses in my lunch meat drawer. Yipee for me! It always amazes me how a little thing like corralling string cheeses makes me feel so darn good, kind of like I conquered a housewife obstacle or something. Does that make me twisted? I think not, I'll take any victory, no matter how small.
