Found it

It only took three days of sorting and tossing papers to finally find the right bin. I have been looking for my social security card for my new job. I knew it was around here somewhere. I just kept sorting papers and throwing out, until I finally stumbled on the safe place I had stored the card.

What a relief to find it. I had found everyone Else's cards including my deceased relatives. Now I can hold my head up high. I had gone on line to see what it took to replace the card. They wanted original documentation. I could go in person and stand in line or mail it. I didn't really want to send my irreplaceable documentation through the mail. At least not without paying for the registration and certification, where they track it and have to sign for it at the other end. Standing in line would also be an inconvenience to say the least. I am now off the hook officially. SS# in hand, proven citizenship and legal rights. I can be hired and paid. No questions asked.

I had forgotten how important that small scrap of paper seems to be to everyone. It doesn't even come with a picture. Anyhow the problem is solved. Now after I show it off I have to find a safe place to keep it so it wont get lost.
