I hate checking the mailbox these days because it's typically just full of papers. I don't mean catalogs and the like -- they're easy enough to recycle. But these bills and forms! Sometimes I just want to dump 'em all.

Keep The Mail Clutter Down
Bill, catalog, overdue notice, bill, collection agency, bill. See? There's no good mail here. But how can I manage it all? Throwing it away doesn't seem to help because it comes every darned day. And don't get me started on the papers that come home from school. I get it, you can draw a field with flowers and the sun in the sky!

Conquering Clutter
I have this box of cables in my closet that I know I'm never going to use again, and I told myself that if I didn't use them within one year I'd get rid of them. That was 1989. My excuse? Some of them cost $25 and I can't bring myself to throw them away because what if I need to connect the Flipswitchinator to the Infernal Contraption Pro?

How's This for Ambitious? How to Store Everything!
You wanna store it? Here's how to do it. Check out these below as well (even if, like me, you are only going to look at the pictures and hope you somehow move into these houses).

Say It With Less
I tell my daughter that writing is really about editing. And Richard here gives another suggestion: Start with less. As in fewer words. It's such a good idea, I'll stop here.
