  Way to go, ((((Yesterdays))))! If you fall behind again, don't beat yourself up - it is my understanding that it takes about 3 weeks for us humans to establish a new "habit" - so give yourself time to figure out what works for you - besides, with depression it's difficult to maintain consistency.
I just LOVED what Wants2Fly said about "storage." I have a cardboard box that I throw all my mail, catalogs, print outs, paperwork, etc., into - my "Inbox." I deliberately do not decorate mine though - I leave it an ugly, drab cardboard box and leave it sitting in the floor in my way so I have to constantly step over or around it - eventually, I'll get so annoyed trying to avoid it, that I will actually go through it and get things sorted out and I can finally hide the empty box in my closet!! LOL!
Anyway, congratulations on exerting some control on your chaos - well done!!
