The best laid plans...

I planned to purge my free standing table on Saturday, followed by the dictionary stand on Monday. Because I remembered to buy those plastic containers on Friday night... I did both on Saturday afternoon. But wait! There's more! I also completed three tasks that I really didn't want to do. They were easy, but just screaming, "Don't do it now! Do it later!" Instead, I wrote that online recommendation, drafted that letter to the Congressman, and created the list of items for a possible grant from an interested organization.

The fact that I went into the office on a day off can not possibly be counted against me in my mind or anyone else's. It was four hours of pure productivity only seen with the proper hormonal balance working in my favor. And my daughter enjoyed the time she had with her father all to herself.

Woohoo!

See the results yourself:


Here is the table prior to the 15 minute purge.



And here is the table after the 15 minute purge.

What did I do with all the stuff?



I put the promotional items in a plastic tub under the table.

I transferred the items left over (as well as documentation and planning lists) from the Jervis House's 150th birthday party (held in July!) to the Victorian Tea Party plastic tub where we are collecting ideas for a fundraiser. That tub is in another room, so out they all went.

The empty cardboard boxes went to the recycling bin. On my way there, I also picked up some empty tax form boxes from another office. In the words of James Brown, "I feel good!"
