They're keeping catfood and horse cookies away from raccoons and possums at the barn now.

but have not. I think about doing it every day. It just seems so tedious. Perhaps tomorrow or next week. 🫣

I have found old papers I wrote for some classes I took in grad school. They were interesting!

The files got shredded, mostly old invoices, purchase orders, regular office crap…the cabinets we took to a metal recycling place and got some cash. Wish we kept at least one, could use them now. Oh well.

We go through every file at least once a year right before tax time.
We get rid of what we can and reorganize.
We have a rental so we have to be on top of all that.

The Tikkis

moved with everything in boxes and now we realize we actually need a filing cabinet again!

One day, I had a hard time opening the bottom drawer so I yanked it and somehow it got off the rails and stays open all the time, so now the top one won't open at all. As I recall, the top drawer held old invoices and bills that are God only knows how old by now.

four 4 drawer cabinets holding client folders- off loaded the files to the organization my husband worked for. Paid a company to haul the cabinets off. Best thing I’ve done to declutter.

We keep standard stuff in it, like invoices from paid bills & the like.
We have a fire safe for really important stuff, though.

No way I will break up the pair. Wife would love it though. She thinks we don't need the kids report cards from elementary school. haha

I mainly keep stuff like taxes, medical/dental bills, car repair, and a few other things I think are important. A lot of the files I used to keep are now kept on my computer, on an external hard drive, or in my email accounts.
