domestica

I'm taking a break from organizing my desk. I've been addressing the 4 big piles of paperstuff that have been overflowing out of my inboxes for over a year. I've been in purge mode and doing good.

Now I have a bunch of little piles on my bed of things that have to be filed, made, shredded, paid, cancelled, read, or in some way dealt with eventually. I'm trying to feng shui my desk I guess. It already looks better sans paper. Honestly, I hate filing.

Getting the desk paper organized is a big step for me. It's one of those things that has been nagging me (silently) for some time. I always felt other things were more pressing or would take less time. Well, that's the truth.

I better get back to it. I also have to do the closet. I need to clear out some shelves to store previous desk stuff, like my camcorder. It's been sitting in my desk drawer since I got it, it makes no sense, on top of the stamps and return address labels, why'd I put it there? I need to find a convenient home for it in the closet.

I keep finding little fortune cookie messages. I think they're about the only thing I save. If I saved money the way I saved fortune cookie messages I'd be rich. :) So now I have a new rule: no more fortune cookie messages. I'm going to post them on the pink belly (sorry, but it is slightly food related) and then I'm going to toss them into the recycler where they can have a second life foretelling happiness to the recycling sorter people.

Ugh...

I am starting to get that feeling I used to get when I would glance at my inboxes. ..Except now it's looking at my bed. More filing. Must- not- lose- the- momentum..
