What’s in Your Junk Drawer?

Do you even know what’s in your junk drawer?  Of course not.  That’s why we call it a junk drawer.  It contains all the little things we’re sure we’ll need in the future, but it doesn’t really have a place to be.  Or, it’s in there because you’re planning on putting it in the right place “in the future!” 

Well, most of us don’t deal with our junk drawers until they’re too full to even open – am I right?  Of course.  And, I’ve been guilty as charged.  What I decided to do was to put some compartments in that drawer.  They can be little containers for pins & coins or plastic desk drawer dividers for pencils and the screwdriver.  Those are the usual things I put in my junk drawer. 

It’s important to look at the frequency of usage when ‘allowing’ anything to stay in our junk drawer permanently.  I actually don’t use very many batteries.  So, my batteries go in a container in my cleaning items pantry.  On the other hand, I use a lot of different chargers, and those have been awarded their own drawer all by themselves. 

Not sure what you have in your junk drawer?  Time to dump it out and sort it out!
