My Underwear Drawer Runneth Over

Today was a good day.  Scott and Luca shared some quality bonding time and I was finally able to organize those little areas of the house I have been pretending don't exist since we moved in. 
It is pretty sad that I feel so good about being able to clean and organize all day.  I am pretty sure the last time I was able to do anything of this magnitude was when we were preparing to sell our house in Cottleville (which by the way I still miss.) 
I have been trying to pick up the house in the evenings.  Unfortunately though most days it looks like a tornado has been through by noon.  
With any luck that dark time of dirty cluttered house is over.  Picking up never really did the trick anyway...it is sorta like someone taking a shower but not cleaning out any of their nooks and crannies. 
Today I was able to organize closets and cabinets, wash clothes (and put them away), sort through boxes and clean out the laundry room. 
You know you have washed your heart out when you run out of room to put away clothes.  My underwear drawer runneth over...literally. Here are some pics of what I did today.  Sorry I did not attach any pics of the underwear drawer.  
 Yep, there is finally room for towels in the cabinets of the master bath.
 This may not look like much but if you would have seen it before you would understand why this is photo worthy. 

I am no longer embarrassed for someone to open the closet door in the guest bath!!!

 Finally, this is Harry's brother Barry.  Some of you may remember Harry Nims.  He was a beautiful plant that perished in the move.  Barry is no Harry but we like him just the same.  He really has nothing to do with the organizing of closets and cabinets but I wanted to introduce him to everyone.
