Tidied

/ˈtaɪdid/ verb

Definition

Cleaned up and organized a space by arranging things neatly and removing clutter.

Etymology

From 'tidy,' which comes from Old English and originally meant 'timely' or 'seasonable,' evolving to mean 'neat and orderly' in appearance.

Kelly Says

The Japanese organizing philosophy 'KonMari' makes tidying sound profound, but the word 'tidy' has always implied that neatness and order bring a sense of rightness to things—it was never just about cleaning.
