Papers in our House

Hello, We have a four-drawer file cabinet in our home. It has been with us for a long time. It cost $100. At the time, that seemed like a lot of money, but Leroy wanted it. It was used from some office supply place. The guy showed us how safe it was to have in a house with kids. He pulled open the top drawer and flopped over it. It remained upright. According to him accidents happen when little kids try to climb them and they tip because only the top drawers are filled. We now have stuff in all drawers. Only the top two have files in them. That does not mean we can always find a paper when we are looking for it. Leroy and I think very differently about many things so some things are filed in the unexpected place according to the other person. At least we still talk to each other so items are eventually found. I wanted to find the booking number for one of our trips. I searched every likely place. When questioned, Leroy gave one answer and that was where it was. It never occurred to me to look there since it really did not apply to that file except remotely. If one of us dies the other will have to do some serious searching to find some things. I guess we are still of value to the other. Paula
