    Default CLEAN OUT YOUR DESK!!!

    Okay, ladies. Yesterday Patrick was napping, Julia was doing a craft, and Rob was switching us over from Microsoft Money to Quicken. What's a woman who doesn't know how to relax to do?

    So, I sat in the office with Rob and looked at the rolltop desk. I thought to myself..."Hmmm...wonder what's in there?" So, I went to the kitchen, got a grocery bag and just started emptying it out. I filled a full grocery bag of trash and totally organized and rearranged the inside and top of the desk. WOW...do I feel good!

    So, today, I challenge you to clean out your desk! Open up those drawers and see what you really have lurking in the depths! Don't be afraid to throw things away and then reorganize. It's such a great feeling when you open a drawer to get something the next time and there it is...in plain sight! No hunting!

    You don't have to get it done today, but sometime in the next week...CLEAN OUT YOUR DESK!!!

    I only have filing drawers in this desk and they are all DH's files. Well, they are files that pertain to us both but I call all that stuff "his" lol. BUT! I have just tidied the top of the desk and thrown out several plant labels, that I was keeping "in case I needed them" and some newspaper clippings that my sister sent me about 6 months ago. Also my broken digital camera is now in the bin and I've tidied up all my paper work.

    Thanks Amy. I needed to be reminded and it feels really good that it's done
