New Math ...

30 years of filed paper work is equal to 16 vertical inches of trash ...  shredding ...  recycling


add one electric shredder divided by 2 days


and lots and lots of hummmmmmm ... hummmmmm ... hummmmming, to which the Butler may have said, "Our neighbor upstairs is going to think we are practicing dentistry without a license."


and you will get 5 1/2 bags of shredded material, which my cousin thinks is perfect for garden mulch, hamster bedding, or mardi gras confetti ... but which we actually just recycled

and then rewarded ourselves with half a pizza each ... his and hers ... his is over there and mine is over here.


Another perk is a coat closet which actually fits coats, and a laundry closet which actually fits laundry.  It's feeling nice and purged around here.  Still cozy, but less crowded.  800 square feet does not go far, after all.  We're making certain that everything we own has a PURPOSE.
