Feb 2003 Organization Checklist

WEEK THREE:

1. Take that huge pile of photos you've been pulling together since last month and begin to sort them into generations such as:

  • Mother as a child
  • Dad's parents
  • our children
  • vacations we took
  • unknown relations from great-grandma's trunk

Put these into huge manila envelopes which have been clearly labeled with the words: DO NOT THROW OUT - PRECIOUS FAMILY PHOTOS and whatever category you select. You need to go through this overview process, in order to determine how much work you'll be doing in later months' assignments. Be sure as you add newly developed photos, that they end up in the correct manila envelopes. You'll find stray sets of prints and negatives all over the house, even months later. Just get them together, and in the right manila envelope!
