What's with this Paperwork?

I made an observation the other day, that its amazing we can pay bills on time.... not because of lack of funds, but because our at-home paperwork managing skills stink, bad.

Mail- this is our #1 major paper mess in the house... not to mention Ronan's school sends enough papers home everyday that honestly, I'm sort of looking forward to laptops for kids in elementary school-- never too young to go paperless right?? Alright, alright, I know that's not going to happen, but really, it's amazing how much stuff is in his folders. 

Kris and I both have to be pretty organized and put together in our careers, amazing this does not transfer over at home, because believe me, it does not transfer over.

So, if you know of some cure-all organizational system please do share... for now, it's "let it stack up until I can stand it, then throw it all away at once and pray it's not super-duper important later" 

(probably not the best method, I know.)
