Organized

Organization, one of my most favorite words for all reasons. I like the sound of the word, the spelling of the word, the fact that the O seems to guite all of the other letters into their places, and last but definitely most important the meaning of organization!

After church this morning, I found myself a bit tired but definitely in the mood to get some things straightened out around the place. I will partially admit that I would like a clean house prior to Erik's departure this week so that I can come home and crash after work without having to look at a mess. Erik will be gone for four days to present at a governent conference in Sacramento which translates to ALONE TIME! I already have my spa day, books and mags, junk food, baking plans, baths, and chick flicks all picked out! It has been quite some time since I have gotten to spend time alone and I'm looking forward too it with gusto!

Back on topic I have been trying to organize the paper files today which seem quite out of hand. I have an amazingly organized and easy-to-understand system for actually filing and keeping the paperwork however I have yet to create a functional system for gathering the documents until they meet their destination.

It seems as if documents and papers pour in from our finances, careers, organizations, the accountant, our attorney, church, community, family and then just junk mail. These documents make their way from the mail box and then seem to grow wings and flutter all over the condo where they reside until I get a bug up my but and spend a day rounding them up. Ah a paper shepherd I'm.

Sigh. I'm hoping someone will enlighten me with a system of storing prior to sorting.

In the meantime I posted some aspiring photos of one very organized lady whom I greatly admire.
