Confetti Making

By Miss604

Almost done... take that Rogers! I try to cut down on paper bills so I request online billing whenever I can but sometimes that’s not an option. Either that or you forget your login information so instead of resetting your account password they just start sending you mail again… people powered… whatever…

Today we bought a Mailmate and I spent the entire afternoon shredding pieces of paper that contain personal information about John and I.
