hrjAlongside of pulling the documents that the tax man needs, I've checked off one small subset of one of my To Do items: triaging the filing cabinets. I've reviewed the contents of one and a half filing cabinet drawers (house accounts and taxes), removed duplicated paperwork, tossed completely unnecessary items, and consolidated the remainder into well-labeled and compact folders. I don't know that I've actually removed that many filing-cabinet-inches worth of space -- maybe no more than a foot total. But I found all the paperwork I was looking for (the first couple years of tax returns for the partnership and an accounting of cash movements in and out of the partnership) and moved various things into their correct places. Once the partnership closure dust has settled, I could probably archive the first 20 years or so of receipts and statements up into the attic.
I was planning to work on the web interface for the surviving garments database yesterday but got sidetracked into entering data from a couple of recent book acquisitions. Data entry is so seductive! (And there's so much of it.) Well, there's still much of today to work on it. It's been ages since I put anything new up on the web site. I really ought to add that to my personal KPIs. (This is work-speak. KPI = key performance indicator; a numerically measurable aspect of one's job description for which goals are officially established and which is used for performance evaluation. At the Big B a KPI can be anything from how many investigations per month I've completed to what percentage of annual training I've finished to whether the entire division has produced a set amount of product. I don't actually have personal KPIs listed anywhere for my private life goals, but it's frighteningly easy to fall into the vocabulary.) Speaking of work, the automatic web content filter has figured out that Live Journal is intrinsically non-work-related and now blocks the url. No more catching up on my lunch hour. It really was only on my lunch hour. I swear. I guess I'll have to be productive instead. Or -- hey! -- it could decide to stop raining and I could go out bicycling along the waterfront on my lunch hour. Yeah, that's the ticket.
