2 old tiolets went to the trash today that were sitting outside behind a shed. (from Jaymees when she redid her house) Also at the barn Allen burnt some sticks and old carpet pieces and such.
Especially all the embroidery that had those stains from years gone by....I had tears too. But there were other items we kept and of course lots of photos... There are 4 sets of china in that house and the next generation doesn't want it. What to do?
Myron's Mom - I'm spent a chunk of my summer doing just this. Cleaning out my parents house. Soooo hard! My mom had these old dresses, hats and such she saved from the 40s also. I was able to justify keeping some of them because we have a dress-up box which will go to future grandchildren. But the rest of it I had to let go. Killed me.

Ah the dilemma, What to do with kids stuff when they move out......You could pick up on Lucie's plan and everytime she comes over give her something and then when you visit her take her something. She'll be gifted everytime you see each other.A lot of items in there belong to DD. Not sure what to do with them yet.
One of the problems id that DD and BF have moved into a tiny 1 bedroom unit. They simply do not have room for what is here. DD is sensible and I know that when they move into a bigger house she will take it.Ah the dilemma, What to do with kids stuff when they move out......You could pick up on Lucie's plan and everytime she comes over give her something and then when you visit her take her something.
