May 2022: Jewelry Sorting and Donations

Like all old ladies, I have a box or two of old jewelry.  OK, I'm not an old lady, but I did have a lot of random jewelry costume and otherwise.  Out with the old!  Some got tossed, some was donated, some I repaired and moved back into the "wear" category. 

yes, I am that crazy mom who kept my kids baby teeth...seems like it was not all of them, but quite a few...

 

May 2022: Purge of Clothes

 I was keeping all of these clothes as mementos of days gone by...but when downsizing, you actually have to downsize.  So, hasta la vista ... but here I'll at least keep pictures!

Look, hoarding is a thing.  This was not that.  This was keeping memories alive because, why not?  I had plenty of room and over the years I actually wore all of these things to death.  They were all ratty and washed so many times and frayed from love.  So, yeah, these were much loved shirts.  Also, I was not sad to see them go or anything.  But I AM glad I kept pictures of these things.  Such a great life I have been privileged to experience!!
