Sure love ...As always, this is a great post, Cindy. Sure love reading about your activities, though your "what to do with it" pictures of your mother's things really resonated. My siblings were recently in Ohio at our grandparent's now-empty farmhouse and outbuildings, beginning to go through more than 70 years of accumulation, following the recent passing of our bachelor uncle. While it's mostly junk that's going on a burn pile, random important items keep being unearthed, like pictures (negatives too!), books, WWI uniform, and fabric from the 1940s. Guess who's handling the latter? Will be blogging about that soon. Anyway, I sure understand how good it feels to find a home for unneeded/unwanted items. It's a ton of work though!

When my mum and dad passed away within 14 months of one another we probably kept way too much. Now, 13+ years later, we are still letting go.... Happy 4th July! No earthquakes near you, I hope!?

I'm sure it will be a challenge for all of us. I'm so glad you included your bell ringing photo in your accomplishments... and those darling pincushions you made.<br /><br />If it helps, once the pump automatically shuts off, it's better for air quality if you don't try to top off the gas, especially when it's warm. Our altitude makes air quality a challenge so there are signs at most service stations reminding people of this.<br /><br />Happy 4th of July!

I did manage shadow boxes for my parents and Justin's parents containing a few of their little things and photos. otherwise I have boxes. How do you make your monthly markers?Anne / Springleaf Studioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114887911414187175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527612360558538909.post-39992291689040662582019-07-04T11:53:10.054-07:002019-07-04T11:53:10.054-07:00Happy Fourth of July, Cindy!
