I have a special talent that everyone needs, but not many people possess. I am an organizer - not of people, but of things. I love putting items where they ought to/should be. I get some kind of endorphin rush when I have organized a space, files, storage, etc. I wouldn't necessarily call myself a "neat freak", but I do live by the mantra that everything has its place. A few examples:
I know this is a skill for which some people pay handsomely. I should start farming myself out to friends who lack this skill. I know one friend in particular who could REALLY use help. I wonder what professional organizers get paid?
- Every photo I own is scanned and stored on a drive, organized by year, then month, then event.
- I've kept a personal calendar since 1982, all of which are scanned onto a drive.
- The clothes in my closet hang in ROYGBIV order.
- My bed is made every day.
- I have a metal muck box (Kevin calls it my "cube of importance") in which all my important papers are kept.
