Cleaning Out Drawer #2 of the Filing Cabinet...ohhh the excitement of it all!

BEFORE...

This picture actually doesn't do the job justice...I didn't pull the filing cabinet out all the way and there was a whole other section full of manila file folders.

Completely forgot to take a picture of the TOOL...
today it's celery sticks, ate way too much over the weekend.


THE PROCEDURE was the same as Friday's.

After clearing and sorting I tried to file the kids scrapbook folders into this drawer...as you can see that couldn't happen.


These are the hidden file folders...

D says...one word of caution: Be very selective in the material you file and discard the rest of it in the "round file" or the waste paper basket.

D would be so pleased, as almost the entire stack went into the rectangle file (the recycle bin is not round). I haven't looked in these for years so there was no point in keeping them.

This is the stack that I recycled.

If you're having a bad day, I recommend you try chucking some stuff...it will cheer you right up!

I came across a few treasures in my sorting...

I found my "package list"!

(Actually, I had no idea it was lost, or even existed)

While the husband was on his mission I sent him a package on the 24th of every month...it was mostly junk but he was grateful :)

I also found these quotes taped to the inside of the drawer...

I hope they inspire you.

AFTER...

This drawer now holds scrapbook supplies and many years of very cute homemade calendars made by the very talented sister-in-law.

Tomorrow it's on to Drawer #3!
