If we'd had to clear out and sell the house straight away, we'd probably not only have ended up with more regret over hasty decisions but also less memories and knowledge of our ancestors.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-80642487070978492572012-08-06T18:31:18.711+02:002012-08-06T18:31:18.711+02:00I've had some very relevant experience of the ...I've had some very relevant experience of the cartoon in the last two years when I've been clearing out the loft. It's very frustrating.<br /><br />I'm glad that you are getting things sorted. It's good, though, that you have the time (ie there is no pressure to sell) to do things in a leisurely way.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-23265291402973258212012-08-06T16:44:32.138+02:002012-08-06T16:44:32.138+02:00LOL - that truth of the day is so true.LOL - that truth of the day is so true.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-57015929476410965882012-08-06T16:31:16.218+02:002012-08-06T16:31:16.218+02:00A major job it certainly is.

On the whole it's probably a good thing that limited storage space forces me to choose what items to keep.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-17266428319993336022012-08-06T16:02:36.230+02:002012-08-06T16:02:36.230+02:00ou are right, it suits me much better to live in t...ou are right, it suits me much better to live in town, and I dont want a house and garden with all the work it requires.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-45690963375627165242012-08-06T10:36:17.277+02:002012-08-06T10:36:17.277+02:00It is such a major job, isn't it.

Fortunately I have few regrets from what we saved and what we threw away of my parent's though GB and I were mentioning yesterday an old dictionary we wished we had kept to see what words were not in use in Mum's youth (like 'teenager'). <br /><br />I love your Dad's cartoon - that is so ME!Scriptor Senexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795521284516432520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-51454839205154186212012-08-05T22:43:28.158+02:002012-08-05T22:43:28.158+02:00i wondered why you were not around as much as usua...i wondered why you were not around as much as usual, don't fret about it, you have lots to do and it is all time consuming. the gardener did a fantastic job of the yard, it looks beautiful and i would want to keep it to. except you need to be in town where it is convenient to walk every where.MadSnapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08163140037276496519noreply@blogger.com
