91. Sort out paperwork and start a system
95. Give 101 things to charity

I’ve just remembered about sorting through all our paperwork whilst at my mum’s in November/December. I didn’t take the laptop so I could get on with other things and it worked. I ploughed my way through a huge box containing an overwhelming amount of paperwork from the last five years. Taking out and shredding everything (bar pay slips) over a year old was actually quite satisfying and I loved stapling, hole-punching and sorting. I had a full black bin bag of criss-cross shredding and also a huge amount to recycle too. It’s like a bit of a weight off my shoulders and now I have more of a system, it should be easier to stay on top of it.

I also gave the last few items (had 13 things left to give) to charity and everything has gone off to the Marie Curie shop in Portobello. I gave away some things I loved and things worth quite a bit so I like to think of what Marie Curie will be able to do with the money from the sale of these things.

I have no crossed 24 things off my list, hooray! There are a few others which should be completed soon too so can hopefully start the year on a roll.
