AD/HD TIP : Filing .... What's that? 

Fancy filing systems do not work for ADDers, even the act of filing can be overwhelming!  Implement a hanging file system - no need for punching ! Just file in the relevant hanging file !

Stick to the KISS principle !  (Keep it simple stupid)!

For Students :  only have files for each subject!
For @home parents,  I recommend a file for each of the following:

• Budget / Finance / Bills
• one file per child NB info like copy of birth certificate, school reports, etc.
• one file per adult - same as for child
• House info :  maintenance / insurance info / Gardening service / etc
• Medical info
• Subscriptions / Club Fees - Annual
• NB Purchases (with guarantees or warrantees)
• File for Pets
• Follow-up : any thing that is required for follow-up within the next week / month - no longer.  If sorted - file in one of the files above.

Ideally on a six monthly basis go through each file - file NB docs like School Reports in a Leverarch File so you can handover to your child when they leave home.  Trash what is no longer relevant!

Easy Peasy!
