The month of December has been interesting so far. The political junk mail has almost disappeared and the charity junk mail has ramped up.
I also finished my junk mail Christmas tree in true Drowning in Junk Mail style.
The ornaments are from St. Joseph’s Indian School. I also stuck some membership cards in between the “branches”. If I have time this week I will give it a full write up.
