You've given me an idea... I'm going to write about how I gave up family photos, old letters, etc.Elizabeth Munrozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077325324751999863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502112871993174034.post-38039547404188652752010-08-19T00:28:20.739-07:002010-08-19T00:28:20.739-07:00My mom got married a few months ago and has since ...My mom got married a few months ago and has since moved out of her house and put it up on the market. She lived there for 13 years, seven of the 13 with my dad and after my dad passed away my grandma moved in with her and was there for three years I think. Her moving out wasn't hard for me, but her getting rid of all of my dad's and grandma's things was very hard on me. I helped her with what I could, I love going through photo albums and other things that belonged to my dad and grandma. She let me have what I asked her for and then she just started unloading stuff that I have no where to put. She gave me a china cabinet that belonged to my dad's mom(my other grandma) and when we were moving it into the house the top part of the china cabinet just completely fell of the bottom half. I was so upset, and now I have nowhere to put all the china and glassware that my mom gave me...so guess where it's at, in my garage...and I am praying none of it is broken. We also have tools out there that belonged to my dad and half a room full of things that my brother left here when he moved about four years ago. It never fails, when we clean it out we get twice as much stuff than we had before. My husband is also letting our pesky neighbor store his junk in our garage...someday it's going to go in the trash...maybe more gradually. I don't go out to my garage anymore because it really bugs me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502112871993174034.post-84192147569295155212010-08-15T23:45:47.441-07:002010-08-15T23:45:47.441-07:00Ciss... the oddest thing for me about living in Ca...Ciss... the oddest thing for me about living in California? No attics and no basements! I think it has to do with earthquakes. I can't even imagine my attending to those two anymore.Elizabeth Munrozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05077325324751999863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6502112871993174034.post-59889857012855870102010-08-15T20:11:44.660-07:002010-08-15T20:11:44.660-07:00My attics were all emptied about 4 years ago.
