67. I was thinking about so many people who lost everything in natural disasters. Getting duplicated papers
Thu Jan 15, 2026, 02:08 PM
Thursday

Takes forever and in some cases, the original was the only copy. I carry my driver’s license and insurance card with me for emergency purposes. My original birth certificate had typo errors and I had to go before a judge with an attorney and every bit of information I could find to get it straightened out and that judgment is in my safe with my Will and other documents. I’m not about to carry it around. The reports are out there that agents have confiscated papers and they’re never returned or what happened to them.
