The Pile

Do you have one?

I have about ONE MILLION of them!

Or at least that is what it feels like some days!

After unpacking and organizing the office this summer, I created a huge pile of papers that needed something done to them.

I am notorious for dog-earring magazines with ideas, products, websites that I want to remember. I am also one of those people that jots things down on scraps of paper. And then there was tons of contact information that needed put in the computer. A few pieces of memories were in this pile too.

With the rain all day on Saturday, I found a bit of time to FINALLY go through the pile!

I love the end product!



That is my office trashcan filled over the top!

Now grant it, I still have a pile to be filed from all this work I did, but at least I have a open cubby space in my computer table!

One of the funny things I found was an OLD list I made my senior year in college.

Let's LOL together!

That's too funny. Guess what I found when I was in the process of moving here? Tapes from Chris Rea and from The Call!!! Sadly, my Chris Rea tape melted in the heat of my husband's car here. I've been moving that thing around since 1989 and Doha did it in!

LOL! I'm so glad we I'm not the only one with "those piles". Now tell me, how many of those soda cups did you go through while sorting through the piles??? Hopefully there was caffiene in whatever was in that cup!

Your lists crack me up. And I'm so thankful I didn't name either of my kids any of the names that were on my "list"... also glad they don't have any of the last names I put on that list!

I no longer say I'm going to clean my house. I say, I'm "going to restack my stacks". :-)
