Shipping

I save boxes. Big boxes. Small boxes. Shoe boxes. Shipping boxes. Any boxes.

It drives Conservative Boy crazy. And I have to admit, the boxes have taken over a few areas of our house. I am resolving—before the New Year strikes—to declutter our lives and recycle some of those boxes. But that's a story for another day (maybe tomorrow).

In the meantime, I have to prove to you that I actually use them.

Here's the stack of boxes I took to the post office the other day. All from my closet.

See, C.B.? I told you they're handy to have around.

(Err ... as long as you remember to cover up the FedEx labels when you take them to the post office. The lady at the window didn't look at me very kindly when she had to tape over them.)
