Another stack of paper…
Last week I was only half way through this tackle and so I decided to save the rest of it for this week. Well the good news is that I finished the tackle and I have the after photo. The bad news is that the before picture is on my computer in Italy! Susan and I switched computers while she is away (I needed hers to manage her work) and I tried to move all the stuff I would need over here. But I forgot to move my photos! So all my recent shots are in Italy! So you will need to use your imagination. Picture a big stack of unsorted papers and mail. Got it? Okay, now here is the after shot:
Other than that tackle, I am trying to answer hundreds of emails and tend to an enormous to do list. (For those of you wondering, Susan has safely arrived in Italy. I am hoping she will be sending us a picture for Wordless Wednesday this week!) Link up and show off your tackle. | |

This will be my very first Tackle it Tuesday! But, why did I decide to do it? Because I literally *just* finished my chore. LOL

The place was such a mess last week that I just couldn’t tackle a thing. So last week my task for “Tackle It Tuesday”, was to actually sit back and do nothing.
It was wonderful.
I hate sorting through mails and paperwork. I really believe it takes longer than cleaning the house because you have to read through things to make sure you’re not throwing away something of importance.

nice clean bench and I had to giggle to myself that your before photo is in Italy.

Thanks for sharing Janice… I can picture it… you made me laugh :o). Glad Susan is well.

Oooh - nice clean table top! My favourite sort of tackle is clearing paper - I LOVE throwing paper away. I suppose that’s why it’s my speciality, isn’t it? LOL
Glad Susan made it to Italy safely.

Glad Susan arrived safely, I’m glad you got through those stacks of papers. I have some that need going through too!

Ok, I didn’t mean to hit submit yet! Maybe I’ll go through my piles of papers for next week! Sigh…
#17 - Morgan @ 1:38 pm

OH, how clean isn’t that! Well done!
I had a lot of different, both fun and not so fun. The shopping might have been the best one

:O it’s Tuesday already?
Well I will be posting my TIT later today - I have spent the day in the car, traveling from store to store, tomorrow my Aubrey is going to be 8 - I am in shock!!!
So we are having a HUGE party on Sat - actually 2, one from 12 to 3 (for the adults) and one from 4 to Sunday at 11 (for 13 of her closest friends)
Am I nuts?

#21 - Jennifer D @ 4:35 pm
I can totally imagine the before, simply by looking at my table right now! Great tackle!
#22 - Barbara H. @ 5:05 pm
It’s easy to picture what the “before” would have looked like as my desk looks like that most of the time!
Glad Susan made it to Italy ok!
