Welcome to The Girl Next Door. I'm Erica and I'm Kelsey. In every episode, we bring our different perspectives to candid conversations that feel like chatting with good friends.

We started this show years ago when we were next door neighbors and still haven't run out of things to talk and laugh about yet.

Today's episode is titled

Organizing SOS because things have become dire in a few areas of our households. And I'm sure

you can relate. Even the most organized among us has a few areas of their home that could use

some urgent attention and the New Year's a great time to spruce

things up. So we will talk about how we think they got that way, why they're driving us nuts,

and what we think the solution would be. I like that. So we're going to go back and forth and

each share three areas in our houses that have gotten a bit out of control, a little unwieldy,

and are in need of some emergency organization. So go ahead

first. What's your first area? Okay. My first area, it is Girl Scout stuff. Oh,

so I, it's taken over. Yes. So this is my first year as a Daisy Girl Scout troop leader,

and I just did not anticipate the

amount of stuff.

Yeah.

I have my stuff that I bring to every meeting.

I kind of have my bag of Girl Scout tricks with my markers and my first aid kit, stuff like

that.

But I'm also now in charge of a lot of craft planning.

Yes.

And I've got leftovers from the crafts. And then I get,

you know, different paperwork. Anyway, it's the, the job is coming with a lot more stuff than I anticipated.
