OUCH- When it comes to my home office I procrastinate in the worst sense of the word. I clean out, re-oraganize and re-due my files once a year. Other than that I play the shuffle game. Right now my 'need to be filed' file is the fattest one!

I will try one of your pointers. A few containers or cubbies will clear up some space. Thank you for the ouch.
