OMG, I know how you feel on the paperwork thing. I had a back log of old docs, statements, default account info, business papers, etc that needed to be shredded and got totally out of control.

I needed to do it but it seemed overwhelming so I just dragged the boxes from apartment to apartment and finally to our house. After clearing up that part of my past, I finally took the time to shred all that crap last year. It took me 4 solid days to do it. But I feel great having that past gone.
