It seems that about every 2 years I really clear out and reorganize. It’s usually in the middle of purging a lot of ‘stuff’. Like socks missing from the dryer, lids and matching bowls as well as lids and their matching totes seem to wander off.

Recently I noticed that I have quite a bit more lids than I do bowls and containers in my cupboard. How does that happen? I use them, they get washed and put away. I have the same issue with totes. Totes of all sizes from large storage totes to smaller ones. I have a box of lids and only two empty totes. I know I went through and had matches just a couple of years ago.

I’m a pretty organized person, so to have things turn up missing is a bit baffling. It’s one of those things that makes me shake my head, roll my eyes and chuckle it off. It seems that it’s a part of this life that just is what it is.
