Mother ...Thanks for the memories and reminders....<br /><br />Mother has told me that during the war (II), I was about 2 or 3, I scribbled a note to my dad who was overseas and put it in the mailbox myself, addressed in my special handwriting with no stamp. Somehow she found out that he had received it, with stamp attached. Our mailman had addressed and stamped it for us....<br /><br /> Mother once said that she kept a lot of her little things because of the memories it brought back to her, and we would not have those memories, so we could keep them, give them away, or do whatever we wanted to do with them.Quiet Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649975491230672109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294353.post-7466694959149731862010-07-11T09:51:12.101-04:002010-07-11T09:51:12.101-04:00I had to sort through my parents' house with a...I had to sort through my parents' house with a lifetime of their things in just 3 days. There was not adequate time to think about what to keep. I'm sure I threw out some real gems. <br /><br />I love the old toaster.

It was very sad to me (on top of the sadness of losing her)that all of her stuff was just being given away and thrown away. I try not to accumulate a lot of things and live sort of minimistically. Now, where are those therapy strips???LOL!Libby Fifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532162740012986996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294353.post-48918122733051677352010-07-11T08:34:23.187-04:002010-07-11T08:34:23.187-04:00oh dear!

But I still have some self-archeology ahead, and I know that I'll treasure what I'll find.Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03005517826999307074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294353.post-82978712890181035162010-07-11T02:19:28.843-04:002010-07-11T02:19:28.843-04:00I found letters I had written from camp among my m...I found letters I had written from camp among my mother's stuff when she died.
