"Hi, my name is Hester Lox. I am a Professional Organizer based in the San Francisco Bay area. I'd have to say one of the funniest days I had was based on what I found. I was called in to organize a home. I recognized as soon as I went into the master bedroom that it smelled funny, and the woman also; yes, mentioned to me, the room also smells funny. It's smelled funny for the last six months. We don't know why. Long story short, in clearing out the stuff collected under the bed, we found Sally, the dead salamander, and Sally was very stiff. The owner was happy to know what happened to Sally, but started crying all over again. I was the one who got Sally out and flushed her. The other not really funny, but wonderful experience that stands out was the day I helped a client do a basic house organization, and found around the house in bits and pieces hidden there a total of about fifty thousand dollars. Some of it was hidden under the pencil sharpener. Some was put between two books on bookshelf. Some was taped to the back of the refrigerator. Most of this was not cash; it was bonds, but they were all; you could turn em' into cash today, fifty thousand dollars. And I hope to someday be in the financial position to lose fifty thousand dollars around my house and not notice it. Again, my name is Hester Lox, and I am a Professional Organizer based in the San Francisco Bay area."
