Off to a Great Start...

My week has been so busy, I just noticed how long it's been since I posted.  My "new year" is off to a great start!  Lucky 13 has been doing very well with the online school.  His health has improved some since my last update!  I'm feeling better today than I have in quite a while.  Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers!

I've tackled a small portion of my reorganizing job, but I found that I am out of filing space.  Now I need to purge a lot of old files, before I will be able to file anything current.  I don't want to purchase a new file cabinet... that would just add to my huge inventory of paperwork, receipts, and ephemera. 

The main goal is still to simplify.  I know my creativity is hampered by too much stuff!  I've been visiting a few blogs and checking out photos of their work spaces.  Many of you have shared such great organizing ideas.  I just need to put time and thought into what will work best for me.

TAKING A CHANCE:

Great quotes! I can tell you that moving absolutely forces you to deal with too much "stuff", LOL. Even after purging the past 3 years, in anticipation of our move, we're still throwing away or giving away STUFF. And when we get settled into our new home later on, we'll be unpacking and saying "why in the heck did we keep this?" It's a constant challenge!

I wanted to check and make sure that you got your pen OK. I hope that you like it! You are truly on a lucky streak!

Just popped in and listened to the Carpenters' Ticket To Ride cover. Interesting arrangement--thanks! (I'm convinced you can tell a lot about someone by their music--nice choices on your playlist!)
