Pedia Talk at Makati Medical Center

Last Thursday, I received this invite from the marketing department of Makati Medical Center (MMC):

Weekend Project: Family Documents Binder

Author's note: I've exported this post from my other blog (which will be taken down in a matter of days- spring cleaning time for me).

Looks like I'm very motivated this week.

Last month, I came across this very useful blog post. Aplevalleygirl shared her system for organizing documents. I know we need to have this at home, so I wrote it down in my to-do list.

Yesterday, I went out to buy the items I need for this project. I bought most of them from Office Warehouse-Rockwell. For some reason, I bought another pack of sheets at SM. Well, it might be useful for other documents that I missed.

A-binder, B-file divider, C-insert envelope, D-sheet protectors

I have been thinking of buying a label maker for my projects, but stopped myself from doing so because it's expensive. The cheapest model is at around 1500Php! Perhaps I can place the labels later....

For each sheet protector, I've assigned one type of document. For example, copies of my birth certificate are placed in one sheet, while my husband's are in a separate sheet.

The passports and other IDs are placed inside the wallet divider.

Neat eh?

For this project, I was able to organize the following document:

• birth certificates
• marriage certificate
• baptismal certificate
• NBI clearances
• DOST clearance
• Philhealth, SSS and HDMF records
• Passports and other government ids

There's still room for more, so I guess I'll include medical records in the next cycle.

The finished product = happiness. Now we won't have difficulty finding important documents and ids.
