I swear that I will never let this happen again and here it is rearing its ugly head. You might know this monster....it lives on your desk or on a table by the door or even on your kitchen counter. It consists of junk mail, bank statements, receipts, recipes and the list goes on. Why can't I get rid of this stuff and get organized? Do you have any helpful ideas to get me out of this once and for all?

Oh no, not that word! The "C" word. I am sitting here typing, sorting, a paper bag of generic trash on one side of my chair and a shredder on the other side. So far they are even up. My dog doesn't like the sound of the shredder. I did get through my box of old tax papers up through 1999. That was four garbage bags of shredded paper out to the dumpster. I don't want to have boxes of paperwork stored. I want to be careless and fancy free, as they say. I wouldn't want anyone to walk into this room and see it the way it is.
