desk cleaning

Michael left for golf Saturday morning 92/24) and I spent the day doing sucky, but necessary life things.  My desk started out like this:  

and now looks like this:  

I still have a stack of greeting cards to go through and match up envelopes...I will probably give most of those away to a local nursing/assisted living home.  Cleaning out my file drawers should help with keeping my desk a bit neater....many papers piled up because my drawers were so full there was no room to file anything!  My recycle and shread boxes are certainly a lot fuller this morning!  Desk cleaning and file drawer cleaning (3 down and 1 to go) were a necessary beginning to doing our taxes.  Our personal tax info is all pulled together, but I still have to do my tax stuff for Quilt Devo.  Michael had a performance in the evening and said they got 1/2 of a standing ovation…the other 1/2 of the audience was a group of ‘really old people’, who couldn’t really stand up  :~).

One beautiful picture before I go….BG is doing a block of the month, and finished her February block…I LOVE the colors and the block:
