Did you all see the Oprah show yesterday??? It’s exactly about what the Pixie’s do! I just always wonder what happens after the organizers leave. I think what happens is obvious unless the ‘organized’ comes into a new belief system. Like, i must show my respect and honor for the people i live with or just for the things i do own and treasure. That i show my respect for the purchase i’ve worked hard for by taking care of them, putting them in their places and keeping them in good shape. I think this is a great reflection of the person and their personality. I don’t think anyone really wants to represent themselves as being spacey and disorganized.
After moving into my first office space alone, i realize how much i wanted it to reflect my personality…..especially since ever other office had belonged to someone else and now i was in full ownership. A dear friend of mine gave me a great compliment and said how it reminded her of my first apartment in Chelsea!
So….hat’s off the Pixies! Best of everything!

Katie and Kelly — this is great! Katie, you have really captured the essence of figuring out what matters in your life. I can see the wonderful results of your work in Judith’s apartment — it works for her!

Great article! You two are so smart and so cute!
My house isn’t too bad in the organizational department, but you should see my car – especially my trunk! Gym bag, overnight bag for use in emergencies – put there after Katrina – tutoring books and materials, cloth grocery bags, snacks and water bottles, blankets, maps, phonebooks, a bag of store coupons – mostly expired, reading materials in case I get stuck somewhere, ink cartridges I never get around to refilling, argh! I need you guys to help me organize all that! I could probably save a lot of money on gas if I just cleaned out the trunk of my car!

This is sooo true! I find that no matter how hard I work my dresser drawers are always a disaster – my sense of order just doesn’t really count for things I can’t see!
