Today, my computer decided it had enough of me and my over-abundance of files. During our creative meeting a message popped up telling me I was at a life-threatening, dangerously low level of available hard drive space.

WHAT?!?!?!

I have a 100GB hard drive. This is not possible. When I looked, it said I had 0 available megabytes of space. You read that right… 0.

Then I looked at the My Documents folder. There were a lot of files there but nowhere near enough to shut my computer down. My computer was gasping for air and I had to do something fast…

Finally, I found the culprit. I keep a folder on my desktop called, interestingly enough, Desktop Poo. It is not a shortcut to a network drive. It is just a dumping ground to keep my desktop uncluttered. Like this…

But my Desktop Poo folder looked like this…

That’s right. 15,518 files of what?     Junk. That’s what.

So, I dumped them to an external drive, emptied the folder and made up with my computer.

Now, if I could just unclutter my mind the same way… There’s a sermon in there. I just know it.
