Organising documents

I have not blogged in a few days as  i have been busy organising other peoples lives. So nothings changed there... Today i spent a good chunk of it helping my stepdad organise his life into papers. He had 4 folders full of piles of random bank statements, bits of paper with important writing and any other detail you can think of written down somewhere. My job was to make it easier to find things so i don't get woken up at 7 by a panicking man who cannot find the paper version of his driving license. I personally love organising papers as i think they are one of the easiest things to organise (plus i get to use my label maker and what can be better than that?)
First of all we got ourselves a large box filer. We decided on this one due to the large amount of paper needing to be filed and the paper filers can not hold very much and this way you can lock the box to keep files safe. This style also means you can add as many suspension files as you want in direct relevance to the amount of folders you need. Rymans are always good for this and there is one relatively close to our house. One like this one in the picture below will cost about £16.99 at rymans. Their web address is http://www.ryman.co.uk

You can also buy the suspension files seperately from Rymans for £6.99 for 10 in a variety of colours.

They also have the handy labels above so you can hand write what is in each seperate file so it can be easily found.
I know this isnt very interesting but it can take very little time to do and once all your files are in order it takes so little time to find things you need and lets be honest you are always tearing the house apart looking for that one piece of paper you desperately need. This way everything is in order and you can find things within seconds!
