Don't give up hope yet, Andi -- the big culprit in freezer burn is fluctuating temps, so the stuff that's buried deep in the freezer may be much better off than the stuff you're seeing near the top.

Emily, I strongly advise turning auto formatting off. It'll make your Word experience a million times better. What version are you using?
Format > Auto Format > Options, and clear everything on the Auto Format and Auto Format as you type tabs.
And avoid Word Pad. It's screwy.
for at least 6 months or so, I haven't bothered to dig deeper than a couple inches for food. So probably 8 of the 10 cubic feet of food in there is going to be badly freezer-burnt.
If you wrapped it well, it ought to be fine.
I'm going to one of the boys' lock down units at juvenile hall this morning for booktalking. I'm a bit nervous.
Gloom, is this the first time with the boys? Anyone going with you who's done it before?
Yes, it's my first time with the boys, and yes, someone is going with me who's done it before. I have an irrational fear of the juvie boys that never existed for me with the girls, even though most of the people who go fear the girls more. Not sure why that is. I love my girls!
ETA: And with that, I'm off!
The only thing I leave on in Autoformat is the two hyphens = a dash thing. I usually type the whole list before applying bullets and sometimes move the whole highlighted list to the left at the same time. You can customize the standard margins.
If something is well wrapped, it can stay freezer-burn-less forever. The taste eventually alters, though. I've eaten things that have been frozen roughly as long as a wooly mammoth and I'm still here.
I hate that it feels so bloody useless to even try to put things in order. Every damn time I turn around, there are bigger and bigger piles of junk.
I know that feeling. I live in a field of accelerated entropy.

Gorgeous house, Sparky! Good luck.
We're meeting TCG's mom tonight and telling her about the engagement. I don't think she'll be happy. So nervous.

I've had Reiki done - a friend gave me three sessions gratis after my accident. I found it really helped, actually, and I'm fairly skeptical about stuff like that.
