feeding shredder

Posted by ronbre (My Page) on

well so far today I have emptied my shredder 6 times..and tossed out one bag of unshreddable spiral notebooks..going through one file drawer..

feels good..there is about 1/3 as much stuff in the drawer now and a lot of it is empty file folders ready to be used for something else.

good feeling most of the stuff was from 2006 thru 2008 stuff. I need to take out old when i put in new..like next month when our new house and car insurance paperwork comes..shred last years..i just get lazy.

but now that is done..and i'll try to keep ahead of it for 2009

I have tried and tried to unsubscribe to several catalogues, to no avail. I sent my nephew a one-year subscription to Highlights when he was a toddler. He is now in high school and I've since moved from CA to NY 6 yrs. ago and I'm still getting offers, complete with stickers!!!

Thank heaven for shredders :-)))

Hey Mustangs - I stand by my recycling can when I go through my mail. Toss, toss, toss.

Those of you with active shredders may want to pick up a bottle of shredder oil at your local office max/staples/ etc. - keep the machine in working condition (I don't know whats in it, probably light machine oil, but it isn't expensive)
