Organization is not one of my strong skills

In the few minutes of free time that I can scrounge here and there, I've been trying to do some much-needed organization of my files. For the most part, it's just a slow process, but something happened today that could be a major setback.

A bit of background--when I go to the local Family History center to look at microfilm, I take my digital camera and a tripod along. That way, instead of having to copy down lots of information by hand or frequently dismounting the reels to take them to the printer (and having to pay for the copies), I can just snap a digital image. It speeds up the research process greatly, and means I'm spending considerably less time at the FHC. Plus, I end up with a digital copy that's far clearer than a photocopy. When I would take a picture, I'd write down the roll, page number--all the necessary source info.

Well, today I was going to organize some of these photos--and I can't find the source information pages. My fear is that I thought they were notes on places to look--notes that I was done with--and that I threw them out. I'm really hoping I wasn't that stupid.

I still have a lot of paper files to go through--maybe I'll get lucky and they'll be in there somewhere. Otherwise, I have a lot of microfilm I'm going to have to go through all over again.
