How I organize our paper files

I just spent a few minutes reading through some of my old blogs. The really old ones are funny and I realize how young I was when I started writing this! I'm sure five years from now I'll look back and think how young I am now. I enjoy writing. Lately, with the baby I have had a ton of other things going on and haven't made writing a priority. I am working on several projects around here. Painting a doll house. Creating a photo wall. Scrapbooking (as always). I also have a hand written journal for our daughter that I write in every time she does something new and journaling about her life in general. So, life is good but I just haven't been blogging.
Adam started a new job with Edward Jones two weeks ago. He is going to be a Financial Advisor with them and is really excited about this opportunity. Tonight we had dinner with the regional guys and some of their wives and I honestly think this is something he's going to be great at and really succeed. I'm very proud of him for looking into what interests him and choosing that as a career. He read several books about choosing careers and prayed and feels like this is where God is leading him. He's working from home now and it is nice having him around. :)

In an earlier post I stated that I was going to organize one room at a time. I had originally put that on hold because I thought we might be moving. However, we aren't moving yet, so I've continued the process. Here is a picture of our organized filing system.
Where I keep our most used files, utilities and monthly bills.
This is one of two filing containers. I got these at the container store. 
I keep these in the bottom of our coat closet.

I'll try to get back into posting and show you some more of my projects I've been working on :)

Happy Tuesday everyone!
