I know what you mean about wanting to go through every thing piece by piece to make sure you don't toss something important. And I'm sure there are a lot of sentimental pieces.GardenOfDaisieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03110646840082802721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860168324012525843.post-15279206786603354092011-03-15T15:44:07.535-07:002011-03-15T15:44:07.535-07:00Hi,

Well, if the truth be known, my dad passed away just last week and I didn't really want to post that on my blog but just thought I'd let you know how I understand what you're going through at the moment. <br />Take care,<br />AnnalisaAnnalisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15911977579672588065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860168324012525843.post-39752864734711031252011-03-07T13:20:31.415-08:002011-03-07T13:20:31.415-08:00What a hard job you have.

I am glad you are taking your time sorting through the things in your mum's house, when my hubby's grandmother died a few years ago he went to help his dad sort out her flat. Hubby managed to save some things but his dad just chucked an awful lot, something he deeply regreted later. The papers and letters will be so facinating and worth keeping as family history for your children in the future.<br />Take care of yourself.<br />love<br />Lyn<br />xxxLynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03548006686821838698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860168324012525843.post-81364790908157078002011-02-21T17:05:15.448-08:002011-02-21T17:05:15.448-08:00Oh my, what a huge task you have, but one full of ...Oh my, what a huge task you have, but one full of memories and surprises. When too many things get on top of me, I stop, take a deep breath and remind myself "one thing at a time", and I hope you can do the same, don't rush or panic or get overwhelmed, just do a little bit at a time. It would be a shame to miss finding something special and it getting tossed out in a hurry. <br />I hope you are getting through your grief, I know it is a difficult time, and I am thinking of you.<br />Thanks for your message to me, Sammy is still with me and doing okay at the moment. I will blog about him in a day or so.<br />Hugs to Archie.

I remember clearing my sister's flat when she passed away in 2009 and it was a very small flat but it took us (me, my mum and aunt) a LONG time to sort all her papers, clothes etc. I still have the box I saved from her of all the things I knew were precious to her and mean something to me. It was very hard to let go of her other things though. <br /><br />So I think it's just lovely that you're treating all your mother's most treasured possessions with the care and love they deserve. And a whole load to discard - like the junk mail! <br /><br />Your mother was an amazing woman - amazing!!! A trailblazer for women - a beautiful woman. <br /><br />Please take care. Hugs to Archie!! :-)<br /><br />Take care<br />xOld Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13185547869183611159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860168324012525843.post-64173041172429353632011-02-20T14:22:04.209-08:002011-02-20T14:22:04.209-08:00oh my goodness and I thought my Dad could keep thi...oh my goodness and I thought my Dad could keep things well but your Mum really did keep everything. May sure you take care of yourself and don't burn out without realising, it looks like you have a lot on your plate. I love the idea of her keeping all her junk mail, you should have returned them all to sender as a punishment to them :-) Take care and thanks for your lovely comment on my blog. xxxScented Sweetpeashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03836203205845306983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860168324012525843.post-11833000987140155112011-02-20T12:34:59.592-08:002011-02-20T12:34:59.592-08:00oh Wow!
