Good evening. I am exhausted. I spent a good part of the day shredding 2 years worth of junk mail. Most were charities asking for donations. It’s terrible how they prey on the elderly. I’m going to try to get her off the mailing lists.
Mom is going to drive me insane. We had the following conversation tonight.
Me: If you want to use the shredder for future junk mail I will leave it here for you.
Mom: I’ll just throw the mail away.
Me: But you said you didn’t want to throw out anything with your name on it.
Mom: I’ll tear my name off and throw the mail away.
Me: But you haven’t been dong that. Just promise me you will stop putting the mail in dresser drawers.
Mom: What else am I supposed to do with it?
Me: Throw it away!!!
AAAAUUGH!!!!!
I give up. There is no reasoning with her.
Going to try to get some sleep now. Good night.

I’m afraid all my effort has been in vain. Mom doesn’t want to keep the shredder, so it’s coming home with me.Yay for scoring new view, Charade. Hope you get that shredder. Yeah, easy to have papers pile up. I tried to convince my mom, if new bill shows old bill was paid, you can shred the old one.
Thanks. I hope so. Mom is really trying my patience right now.Nice you are able to help your mom out.....good daughter karma for you!!
Good to hear. I had originally wanted a lagoon view. I have no interest in the pool.Lagoon views are much nicer than a pool view at Sapphire. Nice change to make.
