I just threw a bunch on junk mail on the floor. I’m not picking it up until I throw away more junk and triple bag the utility bills for the trash..I hate the shredder..too noisy!
When I am really, really old and more demented than now..they may find huge sacks of old bank statements piled to the ceiling..LOL..I hate shredding. I hate paperwork.
I want an office assistant.
My goodness, if I didn’t know better, I would have ‘thunk’ that was me writing that! There for a while I was shredding like a maniac and now I hate it. I do put credit cards through it and some bank stuff but I am triple wrapping and if anyone wants to take the time to go through it, thats tough for me.
My SIL and I decided that with each bag of paper stuff, we should pull something out of the fridge (that we don’t recognize) and throw in with the paper work and let’em work through that stuff....LOL!
If it weren't for junk mail, our mailbox would be virtually empty. LOL! I get so dang tired of all the Credit Card offers, the magazine subscriptions, the Insurance junk, etc. I have started opening all of it to see if there is a postage paid return envelope in it - then I scratch through our name, write a great big NO! on it, and stuff everything (including the torn envelope the junk came in!) back into that postage-paid envelope and put it back in the mailbox. After a few times having to pay postage on the junk I send back, some of them I don't hear from again. :)
Legit stuff, yeah - I shred the part that has our name and address on it - otherwise, in the dumpster it goes.
