Paper Tiger

printerzsmI have a love/hate relationship with my printer…..

I love it because I can print so many wonderful articles, craft ideas, crochet patterns, recipes, and well, you get the idea.

I hate it because I can print so many wonderful articles, craft ideas, crochet patterns, recipes . . . 😉

Hey, I’m nothing if not a bundle of contradictions! Lol

I do try to be judicious in what I select to print, but c’mon! There’s just SO much great info out there in cyberspace!

filecabinetThe bottom line is that I have been fighting the paper tiger lately. My file cabinet has been begging for mercy! So last week, I decided to take a different approach . . .

I bought some 3-ring binders and a box of plastic sheet protectors and arranged things by subject.

I have more to do but I’m really pleased with the results, so far.

And somehow it seems a lot easier to just grab a binder and take it to my soft chair to peruse, instead of bending over, or kneeling near, the file cabinet to find something I want.

Note to self: Try not to fill up those binders too fast! Don’t want to be back where I started – in a sea of very “important” (ahem!) papers. 😉
