one way to save paper

June 9, 2012

Another “Grandma” saver… We go through tons of copy paper here.  It started to get out of hand, so we now have two trays of paper next to the printer.  One has new paper in it, and one has paper with stuff printed on one side. If I print something out that’s a mess up,

My little brother Christopher was born in 1982.  I was in 8th grade at the time.  He was a surprise, and he was perfect. I was always one of those kids who wanted my mom to have another baby, so I was pretty happy to have him around.  I loved to show him off. I
