Fit a cardboard banker's box with
13
I C # pocket folders. At the end of the school
year, go through your child's artwork and
school papers together to select only as many
favorites as will fit in one folder. Memories from
an entire school career will fit neatly on a shelf.

Keep a folder labeled "Tax Documents"
I
where you sort your mail. As statements
come in, slip them into the folder. When tax
time comes, everything you need is in one spot.

Perform daily triage on incoming
papers and mail. Set up a desktop file
box or wall-mounted file holder,

with
three folders: To Read, To Do, and To File. Sort
the keepers into one of the categories, then
recycle the rest. Schedule a weekly time to deal
with the contents of each folder.
