File This Away
I was pulling together all of our 2010 tax information. I even made a little file that I kept in the office filing cabinet. I opened up the drawer to put away some more tax documents when I came upon two pairs of Big E's socks. I knew I wasn't losing it! I had been looking for them. So...this was Big E's stash spot.
Fast forward a few days. After the little yoys go to sleep I usually spend about 30 minutes trying to undo the daily damage inflicted upon the downstairs area by the two babies. Little E had had a spectacular day of reflux, so I was collecting all of his dirty clothes to take upstairs. Where were his socks, bib, pants, and sweatshirt? I did a lap downstairs. No clothes.
Then a light bulb went off. Surely, Big E didn't swipe the dirty clothes, did he? I walked over to the office and pulled open the filing cabinet. There, shoved into my 2010 tax file, were Little E's dirty clothes.
I laughed. That's what I love about Big E. Even after he is fast asleep, he can still make me laugh.
Too bad I can't itemize the dirty clothes on my Schedule A. (A little accounting humor for my tax colleagues.)

At least he is organized! File those clothes under S for SMELLY...
ReplyDeleteI saw him take another pair of socks in there today. I haven't looked in the drawer yet, but I'm about 99% sure he filed the socks away.
ReplyDeleteI found ANOTHER pair of socks in the file drawer today. I wonder how long they were in there.
