Bailey got one of those label makers recently, he has been a labeling guy!  I have been finding labels everywhere.  I don’t know if I have mentioned this or not, but a few weeks ago Matt called to tell me that he accidentally ate the wrong lunch!  I pack his lunch most days because most days he is too busy to stop and eat somewhere, plus it’s more healthy… so anyway, usually on Fridays he eats out with his friends at a Chinese restaurant.  This particular Friday I sent a lunch just in case he got too busy to eat.  He didn’t eat that lunch, he went to eat with his friends.  I think it’s important to stop here and mention that it was over one hundred degrees that week.  The following Tuesday he called and said, “tell me you packed my lunch in a white sack today.”  I said, “No, that was the last white sack that I used Friday.  The new ones are brown.”  He said, “I just ate my lunch from Friday.  It was Tuesday!  I started then and there labeling his lunches to mark the date they were made.  Now my first thought is that he should know and just toss a lunch if it is old… but I realize his work is hectic and he can get busy and forget.  So, the first thing to be labeled is lunches! A Dymo labeler would be great for this use! There are so many other things that need to be labeled, for instance the kids drawers.  Emelia has a dresser and chest that we reorganized and we both keep forgetting what belongs in the drawers.  There are about 14 drawers. Another thing that would be great to use labels on is file folders. It looks much easier than just writing in what belongs in the folder.
