Organizing Paperwork

This week, I decided to tackle the paperwork that I had building in the kitchen hall closet. This is how it looked before:


And this is how it looked after:


I guess dusting wasn't part of the tackle:-(

    Hi Susie! I haven't tackled anything yet:( Well, I did clean house yesterday but my camera died so I couldn't take any before or after pics. Paperwork/bills was something I tackled too!

    How is it that papers multiply so quickly? They look so small, easy to put away and unassuming until there's a pile 6 inches thick on the desk waiting to be filed.

    Can I just say I love paperless documents? I wish more companies would start using them.

    Are you sure you really tackled it or is it all shoved in that top drawer??? Just Kidding!!

    I hate dusting! But unfortunately, it's the one thing I have to keep on top of.

    You crack me up. Dusting is my least favorite chore and the last thing I do. Good job on the clean up area! IF only it would stay that way. That's how I feel in my house anyway.

    I didn't notice the dust either. I was just admiring the fact that you did it. Now.. come do mine! haha. I have a pile of papers probably 3-4 times the size of that one that I need to go through. Oh well, another time another Tuesday. :)
