poltr1One good thing about not working in January is that I have the time to clean my condo, and the desire to sequester myself at home and not go outside.
There's still plenty of work to be done, but in the last few weeks, I think I've made some good progress.
One of the things that works against me is that I tend to not put things back where they belong, so everything is spread out among the various rooms of my condo. I'm visually-oriented, so I like to see what I have. If something is covered up by a sheet of paper, I'll think it's lost and react accordingly.
And so, I've tried consolidating my computer equipment, my office supplies, video tapes, audio tapes, paper files, and so on. And when the stuff's all together, it seems to take up lesss room.
Some of the next few items on the to-do list are to inventory the contents of my freezer, inventory the contents of my pantry, and organize my nearly 300 audio tapes for eventual conversion to digital format. Honestech had a separate product for audio conversion, but it's since been rolled into their video conversion program.
