In reply to the discussion: Still want to know--who in the world keeps calendars for so many years? [View all]Retrograde
(10,136 posts)7. Someone with an inflated sense of their importance?
A high school student who is so convinced he's going on to great things that he keeps all his papers with his future biographers in mind? Someone with a mild form of packratism?
My husband keeps and files any papers that come with appliances and gadgets, although he does get rid of them when we no longer have the item. And we do go through the papers periodically and get rid of things we no longer need. If there are any old calendars around the house they're ones that fell behind the filing cabinet and have been forgotten.
