Canada	DH uses the dining rm table as support for his 'office in a roll top desk,' and flings/corrals papers in a plastic tray like those used in any cafeteria or Costco's hot dog stand. A piece of 'waffle' shelf liner keeps stuff from sliding out and facilitates the end-of-day vanishing act. _________________________ The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that does come their way.

Five small minutes WILL make a dent in that 'to file' pile No huge pile of filing? good for you! Choose something else you can do and share it here _________________________ Valerie McInall:) http://organizingteacher.blogspot.com/

blessmymess Platinum (100+ Posts) Registered: 06/29/05 Posts: 18546 Loc: So. Cal.	Five minutes wasn't enough for me! I was so far behind in my filing that I needed 5 hours! But I did it! I cleared the backlog, purged and organized my files, etc. Now, to stay current - that is always a problem for me. _________________________ Blessmymess

beaglelady Platinum (100+ Posts) Registered: 12/02/06 Posts: 2848 Loc: Waterford, MI	Bless, I sooooo agree with you. I did the same thing a couple of days ago. Will be working in the office and continuing a classI am taking, so keeping it cleared is imperative. Here's to a newly cleared desk top .....and keeping it that way!

Waterlady Platinum (100+ Posts) Registered: 04/22/04 Posts: 3536 Loc: New York	I'm also jumping in here. Things are almost under control in the office, it's the last few piles that linger that bother me the most.
