fred_mouseHow has the weekend gone for you? Any uncluttering?
Partner and I went through the two files that I'd earmarked last weekend (plus another that I needed to pull out to file some of the incorrectly filed papers), and pulled nearly a ream of paper out of them. Old speeding fine paperwork, medicare receipts from 20 years ago, dental receipts from even longer, registration for a car we haven't had in over a decade. Which means that some of that paper has done five house moves with me!
There is still quite of lot of work to be done on that filing drawer to get it down to functional, but at least I'm reasonably confident that half the files only have relevant documents in them.
ETA: The other thing that I've cleaned out is my DW comments folder, including deleting all the comments on unclutter that were more than a couple of weeks old (and quite likely I'll delete the rest of them soon). Lots of them are people congratulating other people, which is great! But if you've told us what you've been doing, and no-one has commented, we still think you are fabulous, and doing a great job!
