Piles of papers, boxes of books, towers of trivia....

Ok, so, I am not the most organized person in the world.   An Internet friend of mine uses the phrase "The Cupboard of Doom".  I can SO relate.  

I have piles.  Piles of papers, piles of proxies, piles of produce, even.  

I have boxes full of papers, some from my fleeing the ex 12 years ago.   And I fell behind on important things, I fell behind on catching up and organizing.

So I made a promise to myself this year.  As the weather gets cooler, I am going to sort at least one bag of recycling, old bills, statements, etc, every day that the weather is inclement, until I am clear.  

I filled my recycling bin with shredded stuff.   I ran out of paper bags!  

I still have piles, I still have a ways to go, but I am seeing an end to it.   I am seeing progress.

Sometimes, it is the baby steps.   It is the elimination of one pile a day.  

But man, so much paper.

SO MUCH.

Now I just have to go redeem all these bottles.   For what won't even be gas money.
