It’s Tax Season!
Are you done? Have you even started?
The hubby and I are always a little anxious each year to do taxes hoping that we will get back at least a few pennies back. 
Now that I’ve started to make some more money through the blog (you can learn more about that HERE), I’ve had to do all sorts of things to keep track of the money coming in, and the money going out. To do that, I’ve tried to be more ORGANIZED, which is easier said than done.
Don’t know if you remember awhile back but I’ve been spending a ton of time trying to get my ENTIRE house and life in order. Not so easy and it’s slow going, but I haven’t given up. One of the places that needs the most organizing is my Craft Room. Trying to get that organized, along with organizing the site and my Lil’ Luna documents/receipts hasn’t been simple, but I’m working on it! Now that it’s tax time, I’m so grateful I’ve been somewhat organized so that it hasn’t been too much of a hassle.
Here are some TIPS that can help you as well to stay organized, especially at tax time:
1 – Have a place designated for all your papers. Whether it’s a box, an accordion file, a folder – it’s essential to have one place that you can turn to that has all of your documents/receipts.
2 – Keep your papers organized in your set location. If you need to document things by year (like you do for taxes), have your receipts organized by year.
3 – Label your folders, papers, receipts. Your life will be so much more simple if you can visually see where everything is and WHAT everything is.
4 – File and organize as you get your documents. There is nothing worse than having to go back through a HUGE stack of papers and receipts to figure out what they were for and where they get organized.
Here are some Pics from my “Still being Organized and Decorated” Craft Room:

Folder, Receipts and more. Don’t know what I would do without my folders – they keep me organized… and sane!

A super trendy and awesome X-ACTO Spira Pencil Sharpener to keep close during tax time (so handy!)
I’m definitely a Pen Girl, but HAVE to use pencils when I’m jotting down important info or scheduling things. Having this pencil sharpener in a close spot is super handy!
The unique design of this sharpener also saves on space, which is awesome. And I’m so glad it came in RED!
I used a coupon for this sharpener. If you would like a coupon too, you can get one HERE.

Gotta love ORGANIZING and TAX TIME!
