Hi All, I have had an exhausting day - and it looks like the same tomorrow - and probably up till the 30th September ...
This is because I am moving house on 30th September, as my present Landlord wishes to sell his property, so I am struggling with trying to sort out all the things which I can throw away, and what I have to keep, so everything in boxes and parcels which has languished for two years in this property is being examined. Needless to say, I am getting sidetracked - I had a good cry over all the condolendce cards from when my beloved husband passed away two years ago, so they can't possibly be discarded. But - after lace, my favourite hobby is collecting stationery, which includes pencil boxes old and new, writing equipment, and anyhting which can even remotely be connected to stationery, so that has been quite an eye-opener. Just how many pencil boxes filled with an assortment of writing equipment, pencil sharpeners, erasers, tippex correctors etc can one person ant? Again, these can't possibly be thrown out with the garbage. The best thing though, has been the amount of lace equipment which has come to light, and which I had forgotten about! Even bobbins, threads and bobbin boxes/cases - not to mention a couple of pillows which had been stuffed to the back of the understairs cupboard, as well as enough jute bags to carry a year's shopping in! I am sure it just proves that every cloud has a silver lining ... What will I find tomorrow? Carol - Suffolk UK 'Deliver us, Lord, from every evil, and grant us peace in our day.'
