I've found storage has always been a big issue. In the beginning, I always had a big mess piled up on the bathroom sink, was running back and forth to the closet where I had the supplies stored, and trying to put on a new outfit. I found an ideal way to deal with this. In most of our bathrooms, we have a small drawer that opens up right beside the toilet. Personally, I sit on the toilet to change my outfit when it is time after a shower. I'm attaching two photos of what I did to the small drawer by my toilet. It is a lifesaver. Good luck, and I wish you well and all the happiness in the world.
