Resolution Update: Organizing Medicine

As I mentioned earlier this week one of my resolutions was to streamline and organize our household so I've been taking on one small task at a time.  After our household notebook, I turned to our medicines.  



I found an image on Pinterest of someone who had organized all of their medicines into a small plastic chest like this. 



I went to our stash of OTC medicines and remedies and after I disposed of everything that was expired I discovered I didn't have that much left.  



I sorted everything into categories (Ella's supplies, first aid, cold & allergy, pain and miscellaneous).  



I labeled each drawer using my handy dandy label maker.  


This is the finished project.  I would say it took me about an hour to do all of it and it was totally worth it.  Another task done and now onto another project.  I am thinking about organizing my gift wrap, which is a disaster.  Sigh.

I love how organized you are! Everything we have is stashed in a little white basket. We don't have kids, so I just kind of hope for the best.

I'm starting to think we are twins! I found the same pin a couple months ago, and once I sorted my new drawers were virtually empty! Good luck with the gift wrap. I cannot bring myself to tackle mine. I even pinned a great idea.
