I have tackled more of the Paper To Be Filed pile - I didn't manage to get anything done on it during the week, but I had a good 45 minute session today, which also involved rejigging my filing cabinet a bit so the files I reference most often are nearer the front and easier to reach.
I also removed entirely from the filing cabinet the folders that hold Post For People Who Have Moved Out and found some space for them on some nearby shelves. I filed into them the current stack of Post For People Who Have Moved Out. At some point I will go through my last emails for those people and see what they want doing with the post, but there is no urgency to it, and that bit of clutter is now contained and organised ... again, so long as I keep filing the occasional arrival straight into the folders as post arrives.
Anyway, now the filing cabinet has room for actual paperwork I want to keep rather than paperwork I want someday to hand off to its owners, and it is easier for me to put newly-arrived paperwork straight into it, and the Paper To Be Filed pile is smaller again.
