After a weekend away, Nelson and I came home to a rather pathetically empty fridge. I headed over to the grocery after work, picked out what I needed and stood in line behind a little girl who was running around using her jacket a Wonder Woman cape.
After her mom paid for groceries and they left, it was my turn. I loaded all my stuff onto the conveyor thing as the cashier got started.
About halfway through the checkout, the cashier looked at me and said, “I really appreciate how you’ve organized all your food here. You put all your meats together, all your dairy and cold items, here are your veggies, and then you’ve grouped everything else at the end. It makes bagging really fast and easy.”
I looked over my purchases and indeed, I had organized my purchases into categories without even really thinking about it.
I laughed and told the cashier it was my job to be organized. This led to an exchange of business cards, a mention of my organizing videos on my website, and an all-round interesting visit to get groceries.
If you’re not naturally organized in your life, let me show you how some simple and easy changes to your day can make a BIG difference.
And then you can be delighted too when someone comments on how organized YOU are!
