>> adz is in the car trunk for 'finding' plants while I am out driving around

I love it!

>> See, I told you I have very well organized tools!!

I have the same system for everything: garden and house alike.

"Where is it?"
"Where I last used it! That way, it's already where it needs to be for NEXT time I use it!"

Except for company comes to visit and I have to "tidy up". Then it takes hours to find ANYthing, including the time spent cursing.

Once I lived in a small apartment for many years, and "stuff" piled up on the folding card table where I ate meals and did most non-computer things (The computer got the sturdy table).

At one point, I needed a napkin, and I KNEW where that stack of extra napkins was ... right about THERE in the pile on top of the card table. So I stuck my hand into the pile about 2" deep[er than my wrist and felt around until my fingertips found the napkins. I pulled them out. They were a Christmas pattern from McDonald's - nine months ago.

Everyone needs to have a system so they can find things!
