If I could make one small suggestion, if you do wish to read all my posts, you might want to start with the oldest. It is a sort of serial narrative with some references back to older posts.

I vowed not to leave my own kids with the same kind of mess and I have been "working" on it!<br />The result of going through mom's things left me with an overwhelming sense that, like me. she, too, was a woman who just wanted to be happy and enjoy life.

I kept far too much stuff, and now I have to begin all over again to dispose of it.Susan Adcoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15784113588273475714noreply@blogger.com
