Despite writing about organizing for a living, I'm a pretty messy person. I am a lazy girl at heart, and anything that makes my life easier in the short run will be my go-to – which includes dumping things near where they should go, but not actually putting them away.
The result is constant piles of stuff around my home. Most of the time, it is essential stuff I use weekly, such as laundry, shoes, or tote bags. But all of it makes me stressed – especially when guests visit at the last minute.
