I keep a photocopy of my outgoing letters, because then it creates a complete conversation and I don't have to try to remember whether I told so-and-so such-and-such and repeat old stories or bore them to death. I just skim the last 2 or 3 letters and continue the thread. :) Who says people with poor memories can't find a system that works! It took a few trials and errors, but eventually I found one that I like.
I took advantage of a fantastic back-to-school sale at Office Depot last fall and got a mess of these:
Wilson Jones 3 ring binder in Bright Pink |
And now I have this:
The tabs are removable, so when I have to change the letters, it's really easy. If things keep up like they have been, I'll end up with a binder for each letter by the end of the summer!!! |
How do you keep your letters, my readers? Boxes? Binders like mine?
That is a great idea. My letter organization may come to that someday, but right now I have them in a pretty fabric covered box, banded together with rubber bands.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty organised by anyone's standard. I have trouble keeping my regular boring mail in order. Tabs and ring binders - here I come!!
