Went on a jaunt yesterday to see 8 houses… in a row… it was miserable. Found a couple we were okay with, but nothing really jumped out at us. Talking to the mortgage lady today after dropping off the car to get checked out. Finding all the info she wanted was harder than I’d thought. That’s what I get for deciding “oh, I can shred that” on a whim a few months ago and then keeping that mentality up to now.

Used to be you couldn’t help but find documents you were looking for pertaining to me. I had them all. Every bank statement from the time I opened my first savings account… every big ticket item receipt… every everything. Merging our documents when we got married was actually fun (I enjoy categorizing/organizing stuff) but was a little messy. Finally we decided to revamp the file cabinet and found a mess piling up. You see, my original plan was always pile it up and then every couple of months, sort it. That doesn’t work as well when the number of papers doubles. It just piles up faster and you freak out when you see it. Well, you may not, but I did!

Ah well, it’s all together now and we’ll see what we’ll see.
