Combating paperwork clutter



my command central



This is a difficult one for me to face. BK - in otherwords before kids, I was uber organized, in many areas,  especially in the paper department. Lately though it has been getting away from me. Today I started small and decided to handle our family command center.  This has been bothering me for a while now. It was full of calendars, coupons, schedules and event notices and important papers I don't want to lose. Now I am a big believer in the family calendar. I can never seem to find one that has big enough blocks for everything. The activities the events, the bill schedules, menu planning. This calendar, a freebie, has been my go to for a couple of years now. It has BIG 1" blocks. But still not quite big enough. Hence the need for the other schedules. 

We have Church schedules, game schedules, school schedules, for the kids and husband.  It is ALL too much. 

So it ALL came down.  To my - well maybe not - suprise, most of the coupons were expired and some of the calendars and schedules were out of date.

 I know that some people prefer electronic calendars but for me keeping track of everyone's schedule it is not official unless is on the master calendar.  I have been sooo inspired I think I will tackled the rest of the paper clutter.
