Packing and Shredding
I think I have FINALLY finished packing our breakables. Its been a bit of a slow process due to the fact that I’ve been shredding a lot of paper along the way to pack them with. As I’ve mentioned before, the paper is actually 12 years of documents such as bills and bank statements which I find ironic really. Today I discovered that we even had bank statements as far back as 1994 which is two years before we got married!
Whilst going through the files today to separate the ‘to be shredded’ from the ‘keep’ documents I came across one file which brought a little lump to my throat. There are files marked ‘Optus’ and files marked ‘Alinta Gas’ and files marked ‘Tax’ and there was this file. It was marked ‘Shana’.
Shana was our sausage dog. When we finally had to put her to sleep she was close to 15 years old and this particular file had 15 years worth of dog licences, vet bills and vaccination records in it. I couldn’t believe that we had nearly a whole ream of the poor ol’ vet’s letterhead paper in there with bills from the last two years when she was quite sick. It was a bit of a goodbye as I shredded those bills. So, a final goodbye Shans, we still miss you. xx
How appropriate is this pic, Shana shredding paper herself!
