You know you have too many stamps when... - Carmen - 07-12-2025

... you're going through some Canada Post Quarterly Packs that have been stored for several years, which you have not yet put away, although they've been catalogued. So you don't check your catalogue, and when you don't see the stamps in your album, you assume you had never bought them and now find yourself pretty much with a complete second set of new 2019 Canada stamps... which were in a temporary album called "Current Year" which you had completely forgotten about, sigh.

This is because you were LAZY, and wrote their location as "Canada Album" when you catalogued them, because you couldn't be bothered to locate them as TBPA (To Be Put Away), which would have saved you lots of money, ya know?! Oh well, I'll sell them.

That why I have kept this picture, quite a few years old (weight loss and no glasses are now the Real Me LOL!), to use for these whimsical, lesson-learning moments, yes?  Big Grin
