I also have begun the tedious process of scanning our filing cabinet to the same PC. (I have a 2TB drive attached for backup that I split between my photo business and personal backup). My wife and I both have laptops and we've set them to use the wifi and backup to the same disk. Here's why: My fear is not that I'll lose one item but that in the event of a catastrophe I want to be able to rebuild (digitally). So what I've done is buy a $5 per month online backup with www.mozy.com and it takes care of all the data. If we lose everything all I have to do is visit mozy.com and login to start getting my life back. Music, kids pictures, scans of taxes, scans of kids art, backups of all my photo business info and photo sessions, complete images of laptop drives, etc. <br />Just food for thought! You never can be too prepared!<br />-KevinKevin Lemerehttp://www.grounduplife.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6602022414393987181.post-58880479817053393142011-01-20T18:54:51.711-08:002011-01-20T18:54:51.711-08:00Jill,

I did it in three big decluttering sessions spread out over a couple of years. <br /><br />The last big declutter was just a few months ago and it literally brought me to my knees! It took me a month to do it. <br /><br />Just like you I had a huge collection. It's still pretty large but I tried to downsize the stuff that I never, ever listened to anymore.<br /><br />Lucky for you every day of boot camp has music in it, so you can pull out your tunes and enjoy them even if you don't declutter further!<br /><br />About the donation thing/individual cd case thing. I put all of mine in big cd cases a few years back. With this big declutter I was able to donate my largest case and it was full of cd's! Whoever bought it from the thrift shop was (I'm sure) delighted to get all of them.Tanja from Minimalist Packrathttp://www.minimalistpackrat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6602022414393987181.post-55115928649335942422011-01-20T07:14:56.716-08:002011-01-20T07:14:56.716-08:00You.

Wow!!! <br /><br />And, you set the goal of 2 boxes and you did it!! That kind of goal setting is really helping me for sure!! It totally gets me motivated to meet my target and challenge myself...it's kinda fun---usually!! lol!!! :)Laura :)http://www.urbanmayberry.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6602022414393987181.post-50919607974860866972011-01-19T12:41:58.555-08:002011-01-19T12:41:58.555-08:00I hesitate to do this with all our cds because I&#...I hesitate to do this with all our cds because I'm always thinking about possibly getting rid of it. Now that I typed that out, I realize how weird it sounds! I have several kids cds that I'm sure my kids will eventually outgrow (since kids grow up), but I've kept the cases so I can donate them or give them to someone else. I think I need to get over that and live fully in the present (which doesn't include storing things for something that might happen in 7 years). <br /><br />I think I might go buy a few more books and do this - it would free up tons of storage space and allow me to keep all the cds by the stereo. Right now they are in a closet upstairs. <br /><br />Way to make me think through this even more!!!Jill Foleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15919221814694982320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6602022414393987181.post-13684167346947866222011-01-19T09:20:35.497-08:002011-01-19T09:20:35.497-08:00We've always kept our movies and music in larg...We've always kept our movies and music in large books and thrown away the cases! :)Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902269757236342287noreply@blogger.com
