    Default Woo hoo, Merry Christmas to me! Decluttering pays off!

    I was looking for the old Christmas cards from the last two years that I never sent , so I could finally send them out with this year's card. While searching through the piles of photos/cards, I found an envelope with 5 $100 bills in it. Woo hoo! I barely remember misplacing it...it must have been a LONG time ago. Anyways, more motivation for me to keep attacking the clutter. You never know what you are going to find! This is going to come in so handy for the end-of-the-year bills.
    Party of five!

    I found it amongst DD's baby pictures, so I lost it a long time ago. I think I remember now what happened. It was in the haze of mommy brain/sleep deprivation of being a first time mom & going back to work. I was using the money to pay the nanny. I remember looking all over for it but I couldn't remember if I'd already spent it somehow. I felt like that uncle in It's a Wonderful Life, seriously. I'm just glad to have it back. Of course, it's going straight into the nanny's pocket as part of her holiday bonus, but I'm still happy to have found it!

    You will never have this day again with your children.

    How nice! Excellent motivation to us all!
    The most I have ever found stashed in an unimaginable place was $35. Still good - I gratefully take it!

    You mean there is still hope that I can find the $200 that disappeared a few weeks ago? Luckily DH was really nice about it. He left it on the table for me & I never put it my wallet. I was convinced it would turn up in one of the piles of mail that was moved from table to shelf. I'll give up on finding it when every last inch of this room is organized!

    Oh, I hope you find it soon! Don't toss any of the papers/recycling until you do! Good luck!
