Hercules once cleaned the Augean horse stables (I think they belonged to the gods) by diverting a river to flush them out.
My stables have had two years worth of accumulated paper in them so that I could no longer find old documents relating to the Red Plan fight. Two weeks ago I began organizing and filing them. The past four days I’ve been clipping Red Plan stories out of a foot high stack of news papers. Today I finally got them all organized in folders by month. Now I have to organize two bins worth of legal papers from the taxpayer’s lawsuit so that until we hire a new attorney we can do pro se work if necessary. I’ve got that deposition tomorrow……or is it Tuesday?. Its all necessary if I’m to be able to draw upon the information I’ve collected for the book I’m writing. There’s still a huge stack of miscellany yet to go through but already my house is sighing with relief because I’ve carted so much out to be recycled.
