Works for me Wednesday

Organizing personal data has always been tough for me.  I used to keep it in a lock box, then I would have to hunt for the key to open it.  All of the papers were thrown in together and I would have to hunt through everything.
I devised this little accordion folder found at Target on clearance a few years ago, into a safe place to stash all of our important papers. 
There is a slot for each one of us and our dog.  Items that are included are:  passports, birth certificates, ss card, shot records etc.  I keep it in my closet, so no one else messes with it.
It works for me.

Before and After- kinda

Before:  Not truly, because I didnt think to take a picture of the ugly single sink counter before we burned it.

After:
The grout and sealing is done.  We changes the color from periwinkle blue to a Robins egg blue, looked almost green compared to the blue.  We changed out the drawers for tilt outs, since the sink takes up too much space.

The change increased the value of the house and hopefully will help teeth brushing battles.
Well, there was still screaming and gnashing of teeth last night, but baby steps....
