Pretty Paperwork

July 1, 2013

USPS Flower Stamps

Today is Monday.  July 1st, 2013.  The first of the month and a Monday can only mean one thing…

It’s Paperwork Day.  Phone calls. Bills. Filing…

And it ALWAYS takes more time than I expect…

I would rather be in my garden…

Over the years, I have developed a few rituals to make Paperwork Day more pleasant.

I have pretty notebooks and folders for organizing my paperwork.  I try to keep fun stamps on hand —and I always brew my favorite coffee or tea as I gather the paperwork that has collected all week.

Once all the paperwork is collected, the mail is opened and the sale flyers are tossed away, I pull out my favorite fountain pens (read more HERE) and get to work…

What rituals do YOU have for Paperwork Day?
