The Box

This is the box that sits in the corner of our living room waiting to be sorted. It never gets sorted, it just gets added to!
Unopened letters, unread magazines, receipts, driving licence forms, invoices, leaflets, stuff that you can't even put a name to...
Some of it's been in there for so long that I'm sure we could just bin it and not notice!
We end up with piles of this stuff all over the house - on the dining room table, the kitchen counter, the top of the piano - and every now and then I gather it all together and put it in The Box. With every intention of going through it and diligently filing/recycling/dealing with it.
But it just sits there gathering dust.
Not quite out of sight out of mind though. Even though life seems a little less chaotic because there's less paper piled up around the house, it's not. You know The Box is there.
Lurking down the side of sofa just waiting.....
