organise my office

of last week, but I still want to do it before leaving for my next training on Friday… So better get going!

I am just wondering because I was looking for a rubbermaid three drawer unit to store my training library in and I found one today! I still need to test if my folders will fit in it but I now know that I will have them, with a bit of luck, tomorrow and then I can really get started with the library system…
If I keep on getting things I need like this I can make fast progress in the coming weeks! I am ready to go!

because the TV people were coming I had to clean up at least a little. I stuffed a whole bunch of stuff in the cupboards but now I still need to sort it out and get rid of not usable material in the coming days. For the eye things are OK and it is clean so that is at least something to work further on. Tomorrow I will buy some boxes and other material to get it all sorted.

it’s not perfect but it’s fully functional working office, clear of all the boxes! :-)

I’ve cheated a little in that there are boxes of my mum and dad’s stuff, including photo’s that I’ve simply moved to my bedroom, and haven’t put into the attic yet but the office is organised!!!

it’s busy, not perfect but it is organised, I wouldn’t feel ashamed having someone in here.

my mail from the last few days, without adding it to the “To Do” pile!!

This I am pleased with :-)
My aim is to stop creating a backlog!! and that is actually more important than clearing the existing backlog, seems back to front but it’s not!!

an “In progress” File, I compiled an order, so I need to place it and start using it when it comes :-)

and I think I will.

This is making gradual progress, and I’ve picked out some storage drawers that will help me with this too :-)

There’s a few boxes that I could move up to the attic but I’m afraid if I do I won’t bring them back down, because they have the family photo’s I want to scan in, but this isn’t a priority right now… so I could move them up out of the way and then set a reminder to bring them down again, say in February! .... mmmmmm… need to think about this one

figured out something… the things I leave on my desk are the things I want to do something with, it’s as if I’m afraid if I put them away they won’t get done.

A better way to deal with this would be to add them to my list and then create a “In Progress” file where they can hang out until I get them marked off the list, when I’ll file them :0)

It’s great knowing that things should be put away but quite another to learn how to actually do this regularly!!

after I wrote my last entry and wasn’t best pleased with my own progress!! I realised my desk was becoming high with paperwork again wasn’t pleasant, I reduced it considerably!! :-)

now I realise I havee 2 bills I haven’t paid yet!! I will pay them now I know !
