Getting there...


Trouble is, I do have a filing cabinet, Frank, as well as the coloured drawers you can see in the last photo, but stuff arrives at such a rate I never seem to get round to filing it. And like you, Winifred, I come across lots of stuff to go through and can't quite work out what to label it as for filing.  Until I started this current tidy-up, the yellow container was full of unsorted stuff, but now it's stuff ready to throw out!

There's stuff from World Vision, International Fund for Animal Welfare, philosophy online courses, my late mother's purse containing the change and keys she had in her purse just before she died, cards written and drawn on by Emma, old diaries, bank statements, examples of children's handwriting and dictations, hundreds of receipts, old postcards, new cards, bookmarks, old letters, bills, spare buttons, etc.

At least now that I'm doing the blog frequently I can still remember how to do the photos.
As you can see in this one, Hugo has given up waiting for Nanny to play with him and has fallen asleep on the bed.

I usually print and bind a calendar each year but didn't do one last year, so of course couldn't remember how to do it this morning.  Philip printed one for me and after a bit of a wait I managed to dredge up from the bottom of my memory bank the way of binding it.
That's after I managed to find the binder in the storeroom...
