Mission Organization: Week 3 - My Shower

My shower is a lot like my desk. As long as you don't open it, everything is fine. Just keep the curtain closed, because when you open it you will discover that I'm a hair care product junkie! I don't wait until I run out of shampoo or conditioner to buy more. My shower is stuffed full of them.

I have them stacked on any ledge that will hold bottles.

My shower caddy is full of bottles.

Every space that has a space has bottles. Each one of those bottles has to be picked up every time I clean the shower too. What a lot of wasted energy!

I emptied the shower and counted 15 bottles, and those are just the products that are IN the shower.

I have another problem with the products in my shower. When I take off my glasses and get in the shower, I can't read the labels on the containers. Usually the shampoo and conditioner containers are so similar that I forget which is which. Can anyone relate? You probably have to be "past a certain age" to get just how annoying this is.

I decided to make my life easier and label the shampoo and conditioner. I used a Sharpie and labeled these tubes with the letters "C" and "S" in a large font so that I could read them without my glasses.

I'm working on breaking my addiction to all those hair care products. I put everything away except one shampoo and one conditioner for the shower. I'll use those until they are empty, then I'll have plenty of choices for replacements. My shower looks so much nicer without all the clutter of too many bottles. It will also be much easier to clean without all the bottles to move and wipe under. Marking the products so I can easily identify them will save me some frustration when I'm in a hurry. This might even save me some money too, I won't need to buy shampoo for quite a while!
