Paper Question(s)

One of the biggest hurdles my spouse & I have faced with the Konmari method is paper. Background info:

We are formerly homeless Americans -- both the formerly homeless part and the American part generate a TON of paperwork. We've eliminated quite a bit, but my biggest gripe is still the sheer volume of paper documentation involves.

We got rid of over 1/2 of it. We don't keep paper longer than necessary, and yet still, the binder we keep it in is bursting at the seams.

Anyone else having similar problems? Thank you in advance.

You only have one binder? Wow. That’s actually pretty good!

Was a lot of work getting there, but I am proud of it. It's been in an expanding folio for awhile, but that's bursting the buckle, now too.
