Don't worry about it - just scan it

As the Holiday and New year season has come to an end many of us are pondering the residual junk and chaos left in our house and wondering where to begin. Well if you are like me and are holding on to every possibly important document or school paper - you have probably accumulated folders upon folders of papers, faxes, school work, art etc. It was recently suggested to me that scanning the document and then tossing it makes one fret less and purge more. I think this is a wonderful idea especially since most of what I am holding on to has relatively little importance now...but may be of value at some point in the future....maybe....Anyway, if you don't have a scanner, a digital photo may suffice until you invest in one.

I like taking photos of the kids' artwork, then putting the pictures into a digital frame that cycles thru all the pictures. Saves space and we see more artwork!
