stitchwhichIt has been a couple of days of filing-labour in my house... I'd placed all the heraldic files of submissions in two boxes while I didn't have the Kingdom file cabinets, then I did have those but being slothful, I continued to use my two boxes. Those were the recent submissions, doncha know, so I didn't often need anything from the cabinets. Finally my boxes did overflow and it was time to merge the piles. Only, there were gaps. Extablished kingdom persons with missing files. I was confused. That is, I was confused until I found, buried in two other file boxes unlabelled by my predecessor, a full set of other files, some the permanent ones pulled from the drawers and the rest 'temporary' ones with sticky-tabs showing names on them. Those all necessitated me checking past LoIs to find which version of name was actually approved and then re-labelling the folder. At the end, there were five full boxes of folders. My (new) deputy put one whole box away for me and today (ta-da!) I got the other four integrated into the full collection. That is one mess cleaned up. The library looks better with all of the boxes empty and stacked into themselves. All I have is my 'working' box with each month's submissions placed in monthly folders. Those get cleaned out once their LoAR is published.
To celebrate I ordered Cal'z chicken wings (an indulgence I cannot afford often and the carbs and calories are out-of-this-world) and am now building the last of my Winter Village lego sets. I'd like to have my little village diorama built before the kids get here for their visit. I've used up about 2/3 of the top of the kingdom filing cabinets as a display area. It's not too bad... a little tall, and the Christmas lights I'm using around the edge are kind of dorky looking. I went to the store too late to get tube lights and I should have just skipped that bit this year and figured out an alternate method of lighting it up.
Time to get back to it. I've just finished a skating pond and a tree stand with a horse-drawn tree wagon. Now on to the bakery!
