Day 294 - Office Papers & Tax Return

I finally got a huge stack of papers sorted last night.  I kept about 1/3 to be filed including special things the kids made, business receipts, & mortgage paperwork.  I got rid of a whole bunch of other stuff including a huge amount paperwork from the birth of DD#4 over two years ago, non-business receipts, and other bits and pieces.

I also finally found my 2011 tax return!  A few weeks ago it occurred to me that I hadn't deducted sales tax on a car purchase in 2011.  It was a used car so the sales tax isn't high, but finding the return helped me determine that amending it would net only $30.  Worth it?  Maybe.  We'll see if I find any more business receipts, charitable donation receipts, or mileage deductions for our rental property as I continue to wade through the piles.
