I have a few VHS that I can't say I watch but I could not do without them ..my brother and mom and sisters who are gone are on those. I also have phone messages that I can't get rid of... voices.......and so I MEAN to put those on tapes ..so I can UNPLUG phones I do not use ( base units ) I am on my third set!!!!!! Hahahahahahahaha. I guess that can be used against me in a sanity trial. I just can't dumpmthe voices...Ben who is soon to be 13 ..when he was a scratchy age 2 ... my brother calling to say happy new year and he would give anything for a hug... oh my.

I have a few doilies ...I have seen those framed behind glass and they are beautiful and feminine in a little girl's room ..I have seen china broken up and sunk haphazardly in cement and used as a long decorative stepping stone at the bottom of a stairway and in front of a bench ...a way to preserve memories ...that is what I meant when I said I have a hard time getting rid of stuff that I mean to "someday" "do something with".....sigh.... now I will saynif I had no memory of that doily or having used the china.., it would be different.. Stuff becomes burdensome. Overwhelming. I can understand how letting it go makes one feel lighter. I feel great when I empty a drawer and closet
Don't squat with yer spurs on!

People try to turn back their "odometers." Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved
