simplify my life

Being organized is a big party of simplifying things for me. Also keeping my possessions to a minimum. I haven’t been shopping lately and I have donated a lot of clutter, and given things away as gifts. I feel like I am getting there but I still have a ways to go.

Last night I cleaned out all my files. I put all my old financial records in a box in the attic and made a label for it that said: in case of audit. The last few years are a bit spotty, however from this year on I am fully prepared if such a situtation ever arised. This year is my first full year working as an independant contractor so I made a file box (portable in case of more fires) to file all my bills, reciepts, and statements. And I prepared a business milage log for my car. I feel like things are clear and simple now. No more stress over financial clutter.

P.S. I love label makers!

I feel like I’ve been getting rid of more crap, then I have been consuming/purchasing lately so that is good. I organized the attic, and we pretty much cleaned out our whole house recently. Having fewer posessions and keeping the ones you have in order is a big part of simplification for me.

Waiting to go to Buffalo Exchange. I hate a cluttered closet.
