When I moved from Avondale Estates about 18 months ago, I did throw out
quite a bit; but I had spent the previous few months separating things into
piles. I still have a gracious plenty of memorabilia. First of all, you
don't need 10 pictures of the same event when 1 or 12 (for safety) will do.
As an only child I took ALL the photo albums from our house that my mother
didn't want in 1989, I've been gradually downsizing since then and 25 years
later it's about right. Everything has been put in place in the new
apartment aside from one cd rack and the items in a cedar chest that are
holding more cd's and lp's. Once I find the right container for these I'll
be finished. There is nothing wrong with the cedar chest, it's just a major
hassle to open it and take off the bric-a-bric atop the chest.
