Sometimes you just gotta laugh, snap a photo, and blog it!

I don't know if you've noticed but me and my husband are the exact opposites.  Whoo, big news flash there!  However Dusty has a few personality quirks that could surprise you.  He tends to be introverted around people...more of a listener than a talker, but he can have a wicked sense of humor.  He's tedious and ordered...he has a system for choosing his shirt and tie on Sunday.  BUT, he doesn't get rid of anything!  While organizing the closet yesterday I noticed his sock drawer was a jumbled mess.  So I decided to dump out everything redo the drawer.  In addition to socks (26 pairs of black socks by the way) and undergarments I found this....

This photo contains the following; all of which was found in the drawer
  • spare key to the truck
  • 13 business cards
  • book light
  • spark plug cleaning tool
  • stopwatch
  • old wallet with miscellaneous insurance cards, credit cards, and my freshman high school photo
  • 3 book marks
  • key fob for my car
  • calculator
  • lanyard
  • 2 knives
  • snoopy watch from when he was a kid
  • concert ticket
  • miscellaneous notes
  • AWANA service pins & Novell engineer pin
  • screwdriver
  • dog tag from Man Camp
  • love notes...from me so it's OK!
  • empty mint tin
  • shoelaces
  • pencil sharpener
  • usb cord
  • ...and my personal favorite  2 ninja throwing stars
I knew when I questioned him about it there would be a perfectly logical (to him) explanation.  "It's my miscellaneous drawer."  Not anymore!  I pared down the socks and the miscellaneous stuff was sent to other locations....or the trash can.  Just don't think about attacking us in the middle of the night.  You might get hit with a throwing star...provided Dusty can get to his sock drawer in time!!

I love it! Chad has his piles of things everywhere too! If I dumped out his drawer I would have to use a bigger space!

I notice way too many sharp things in that photo! So this is located in a drawer in the bedroom? Watch your back! LOL
