Filing Away

JLP seems to be reading my mind.

Lately I’ve noticed that the ol’ personal filing cabinet is bursting at the seams, so I spent a chunk of time Saturday afternoon going through it. An absolutely astounding amount of unnecessary receipts, manuals for things I no longer own, random articles filed for reasons long since forgotten, etc. found their way through the shredder and out to the trash. And another big pile (amazingly big, now that we own a few pieces of real estate - activities related to that really know how to use a few trees) of marginally organized information was set aside, until I could figure out what belonged where.

And what do I find in my newsreader today: JLP’s list of what to put in safety deposit box, along with a commenter directing me to this even more useful list of what to do with all those financial/personal papers I now have lying around.

Brilliant! (OK, so I maybe have been watching too much soccer lately… ;))
