Thirteen Things in my nightstand drawers
1. Photos….lots & lots, plus kid’s school pics too!
2. 2 devotional books
3. Small picture frame
4. A couple of photo albums
5. Beth Moore bible study book
6. Old Christmas lists of the kids
7. Zippered bag….I have no idea from what!
8. An old planner
9. 2 old cassette tapes
10. Skiing trail map
11. Remote control instructions
12. Book light…..don’t know if it works!
13. Book on clutter control!…………..how ironic!
There are probably a couple more things but that is the general idea and boy do I need to re-read that book on letting go of clutter!

Cool! Hey, at least you have a drawer!! I am trying to talk dh into a real bedroom set when we move!!
Happy TT!!!
July 13th, 2006 at 6:25 am
That drawer looks just like mine..lol
My TT is up too!
Good post and good idea…

i’m assuming the remote control instructions have never been used? 🙂
July 13th, 2006 at 8:29 am
Okay, I’m a clutterbug but even I have gotten rid of the kids’ Christmas lists. lol
Happy TT!
July 13th, 2006 at 8:36 am
That sounds like something I would do, have a book on clutter control crammed in a pile of other stuff!
Thanks for stopping by!

Wow, that’s a lot of stuff in that drawer. Loved that you still had the kids christmas list in there. If it’s written by them; might want to tuck that away for when they are older.
July 13th, 2006 at 8:49 am
Ha, you’re pretty brave, Lil’ Duck is forever messing with my drawers so they all look terrible ;).
July 13th, 2006 at 8:52 am
cassette tapes… we don’t have any. For some reason… the kids think it’s great to unravel them and knot them up!
July 13th, 2006 at 8:55 am
Actually, I use the remote control instructions from time to time…..and yes, the kid’s Christmas lists from years past are handwritten so that’s why I have them! mine unraveled tapes as well, some have survived!

Ah I don’t even want to know what’s in my night stand! Yikes! That could be dangerous. I love the clutter book in there though…it just ties everything together. Oh and looking at the book you are reading, I just finished the 7th one and can’t wait to read the 8th. They are very addicting!
July 13th, 2006 at 9:14 am
And that’s why I don’t have a drawer near my bed. I’d dump everything in it!
July 13th, 2006 at 9:51 am
We need to both read that declutter book, sister dear! 🙂 Let’s see, can I borrow some of the things from your drawer – Beth Moore study book and the book light? 🙂
We need to start on your photo organizing project soon and get them all together in one place, and start sorting them. Big project!
July 13th, 2006 at 10:06 am
Sounds like my nightstand, too – except everything is just sitting on top!
July 13th, 2006 at 10:33 am
Book on clutter control, that is funny. Sounds similar to my nightstand, my Bible, devotional, Christian books, pictures of my mom and DH, etc. I need to do a little decluttering myself! My list is up!
July 13th, 2006 at 10:46 am
Gail,
First of all, your blog is GORGEOUS! I love it.
Second of all, I could so totally relate to your clutter drawer. I have one, no, wait, make that TWO drawers very similiar to yours!
And I LOL at the clutter book – how fitting and funny!

I love this idea for a TT list! I don’t have a nightstand, but if I did I’m sure I’d have a small community living in it with all that I’d keep there!
July 13th, 2006 at 11:37 am
Great list. I love Beth Moore and have done several most all of her Bible studies. She is coming here to Utah in October. Can’t wait to see her in person again.
July 13th, 2006 at 12:20 pm
I have old planners, too. can’t seem to bring myself to throw them away. I don’t know why. Great list!
July 13th, 2006 at 12:29 pm
Wow. I love Beth Moore studies too. Just finished the one on the Patriarch. Powerful study. You really should clean out your drawers more often.My TT is up.
July 13th, 2006 at 12:38 pm
I need that book!!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:20 pm
Ha ha! I have all sorts of organizational books, little good they do me. The books themselves have become part of the clutter, lol.
July 13th, 2006 at 1:23 pm
Sounds like this needs to be a Tackle It Tuesday. I don’t play that meme, but I know lots who do! 😉 I have Beth Moore bible studies in my nightstand too…in fact, that list rivals mine!
Thanks for visiting my TT!
July 13th, 2006 at 1:48 pm
Sounds neater than mine!
My TT is up
July 13th, 2006 at 2:09 pm
Wow. I’m honestly afraid to look in my nightstand drawers. They are so full, I’m afraid they may explode!
Thanks for stopping by my 13!
July 13th, 2006 at 2:20 pm
Haha, that is about what my drawers look like. I just tend to throw things in and forget about them!! I don’t know if I could just pick out 13 though. Thanks for stopping by my TT!!
July 13th, 2006 at 3:08 pm
If I took a picture of mine and put it beside yours, I bet we couldn’t tell them apart! I don’t know why, but that just seems to be the place I put all the extra stuff! Thanks for stopping by my TT! Visit again soon!
July 13th, 2006 at 3:36 pm
What an interesting TT!
Wrongblog’s TT is up! Erica wrote this week!
July 13th, 2006 at 4:25 pm
Sort of looks like my desk.
July 13th, 2006 at 4:45 pm
Wanna pass the clutter book around this way please?
Happy Thursday!
July 13th, 2006 at 4:46 pm
Me, I just look at the clutter and thank God for all the rich blessings then occasionly-very occasionily I ask Him who he thinks should be blessed with this stuff next. Thanks for stopping by.
July 13th, 2006 at 5:02 pm
I love it that you have old Christmas lists from your kids. I think that is really precious, and something that probably gets more special to you as the years go by and they grow up.
Thanks for visiting my TT. Happy Thursday!
July 13th, 2006 at 6:00 pm
That is pretty funny about the clutter control book. I like Beth Moore Bible studies.
July 13th, 2006 at 6:12 pm
Lol! Love the clutter control book piled with the clutter. 🙂
July 13th, 2006 at 11:23 pm
LOL, that cracks me up that you have the clutter control book in there. But really I’m laughing because it sounds like the drawer in our end table in the living room. 😉
July 14th, 2006 at 2:20 am
