A little rabbit trail

Wow! It took me forever to figure out how to write a new post! That's what I get for staying away so long. Today I am going to rabbit trail a bit, actually a lot. This entry won't seem like it has anything to do with PD, but hopefully in the future I can explain how it does. Maybe you'll see the link as you read. I've been doing a lot of thinking about trash lately. Not necessarily the type that lies along the side of the road, though there certainly is a lot of that. I can only tackle one problem at a time though. My dilemma is the trash that is in my house that I didn't ask for. Namely, the unwanted catalogs, flyers, credit cards, etc. You get the point because you receive them too. It is really starting to bother me! So I went to google (my source of answers to all my questions) and typed in "How do I get off mailings lists ?" Google sent me to the DMAChoice website and I did it! I asked to be dropped from ALL mailing lists! I must add that to get off credit card offers they sent me to another site. I did this also. So, it will take 60 to 90 days. I'll let you know how it goes and maybe you can reduce the amount of unwanted mail you receive and throw out. Now, this might not work for mass mailings. I called a bank to get off their list and they had no idea how to do it. I might have to head down to to the PO next!
