Ouch, this one hits home with me. My mom’s counters are overflowing with paper, and it’s a constant battle with me. I don’t think that I’m as bad as her, but I do fight it every day. Sigh…Good morning, legaleagle and Violet Bay! LOL, Violet! Every time that I clean off my desk, it’s like the other papers know it and fill the void. :-)Good morning, Aaron and Susan!

Billy and I don’t do clutter. His mom doesn’t either. My mom kept hers confined to a desk drawer and loved having it empty. Anne you should be ashamed of your self, not pleased. Cathy is nutty enough without your help and 10 times nuttier with your help. Poor Cathy, I really do feel sorry for her.
Morning Susan should you arrive. Morning frightenup if the smile hadn’t worked yesterday, you would have gotten the full treatment. He was ready and willing by the way. :-D Hello fellow Cathyites.
Hi Mom!Time to sleep for a while. :-)

Ah, Aaron, how can you live without clutter! That’s what designates “your space.” However, Billy made up for you being out of step in the clutter kingdom by offering up that wonderful black forest pound cake as dessert. Chocoholics, unite!

My mom has tried to get my dad to deal with all the paper, but he argues that he wants to keep it, so now he’s having his cluttery way. My dad’s desk has a foot high of unopened mail and documents on his desk.

i’m all in favor of families staying in touch, but this way is a bit nutty.
Of course, what did I expect from Cathy and her mom??
Happy Friday, all.
