I was tidying up my office today. #AuDHD style.
I take everything off the shelves, sort into piles all over every surface, cover the floor, trip over things going in and out, get overwhelmed at the mess, wait for my impulsive #ADHD side to give way to my #Autistic side. Take piles of like items, all DVD's, all CD's etc, store them in boxes, move boxes to logical locations (Tools in workshop, dvd/blu rays down by media player, craft stuff to craft room etc) put books back on shelf in order.. or at least attempt to as ADHD side gains dominance again and books end up on shelf "Where they'll fit!" Meaning math books next to Pratchett next to History next to bike maintenance next to cookbooks next to Lovecraft next to... ... you get the image XD
Desk is still covered, books everywhere, given up for today.

#AuDHD / #autistic tidying.. Day #2 I've been avoiding coming back into the office. I was having restless sleep and anxiety dreams last night about finishing tidying up my office. It's clean, just untidy. I'm a bit of a hoarder ( i mean I found a box of Iomega Zip disks and a USB drive to read them as well as my palm Vx and HP ipaq!!) So i have a LOT of clutter. But I opened the office door to this and shuddered, closed the door again immediately had to go do some really important breakfast clear up instead. (Anything to face the issue directly ahead of me)
