Just spent an hour shoveling. It's -4°F before windchill or -27°F with it (that's -20/-33 C).  Holy cow I'm cold.

ooooh, losing those would be bad. I tend never to toss thing, but then go through a cleaning binge and organize and toss and box and give away... and regret it like mad 3 months later when I'm desperately searching for something and it's GONE

I think my ex did that to my birth certificate. Not maliciously, just in one of those fits of organizing.

On the other hand, I had my SS card before the divorce and haven't seen it since.

oh YIPES. That's not good

Such a pain to have to get a new one.

I guess I'll have to one of these years.

the weird thing is it's essential, yet really not needed, depending. If you don't need a passport, or a new marriage license or a new job (depending on the job) you don't need the SSN card or birth certificate.

Oh, but you do, mon cher. If you *ever* plan to collect social security or if you *ever* have the misfortune of losing your driver's license (been there, suffered that), it can be a huge PITA.

yeah, but you don't need it every day- just on THOSE days.

And I suppose, considering how much we;ve paid into to social security, actually getting some money back would be nice

Yeppers. Looking forward to it, myself. ;-)

looking forward to it, but not counting on it here

Social security being there is the least of our worries. :-)
