I think it must be hard to do this necessary decluttering, but see that you've got rid of the magazines except one. With my love of history I would get engrossed in reading such old magazines and then find it difficult to throw any away! The adverts and fashion styles from this era are fascinating.Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-17905341050080061002017-06-08T23:07:44.785-04:002017-06-08T23:07:44.785-04:00I'm so proud of you, Vee!I'm so proud of you, Vee!

I have some really old magazines that I treasure, although I don't look at them very often, I still love them. <br /><br />I'm a little late, but I would like to tell you how sorry I was to hear of your father's passing. It's so hard to lose those we treasure and love dearly, but we know that their treasure is in heaven, and we will share it one day with them. Bless you sweet friend.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Barb Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-33598459217159632312017-06-07T20:05:52.836-04:002017-06-07T20:05:52.836-04:00I have a lot of olden magazines that I am gatherin...I have a lot of olden magazines that I am gathering up to take to my doctor's office...others might like seeing them.<br />hoping this day is brighter for you...bj https://www.blogger.com/profile/09327534885194207074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-82653756799551807162017-06-07T17:53:58.562-04:002017-06-07T17:53:58.562-04:00Wow.

Sorry, I was a bit distracted. :-) Love the old magazines. Of course I have old magazines too, and have you noticed how the hands on the clock spin around when you're looking through them?? I think it's a good thing we're not next door neighbors. We'd never get anything done, looking at each other's old stuff.

I enjoyed seeing the sweet cottage and gardens. When did we get so greedy and think we need huge houses? I have a LOT of Victoria magazines and this summer, when school's out (just two and a half more weeks) and I have some time and energy, I'm going to get rid of them, along with a lot of other clutter, but not the family treasures.<br />Hugs to you.<br />Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-22543179028804872472017-06-06T22:59:27.041-04:002017-06-06T22:59:27.041-04:00I know how difficult it is to part with old family...I know how difficult it is to part with old family treasures like this as I am also sentimental and like the most unusual things. I really have a weakness for old books and magazines too, and can get lost in them. I saved some old LIFE magazines from my mother's house--my dad loved getting that magazine while I was growing up and they saved some good ones. My mother had a zillion Readers Digest condensed books. A friend took them to use as decorations for her daughter's wedding. They carved the books into alphabet letters. This National Geographic issues was so interesting! I wonder if any of those houses still survive? I was happy to have seen the "Old Man of the Mountain" two years before he fell down on a wonderful trip we took to New Hampshire. That was the trip we drove up to the summit of Mt Washington. My husband still says that s the scariest drive he ever took--even though we've driven up 14,000 mountains and mountain passes here!<br />When my son graduated high School he asked us for a "Mt Blanc" pen :) I wonder if he still has it? Perhaps making a photo scrapbook of certain objects before donating them is a good idea? It preserves your memories and yet reduces clutter. <br />Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-77941866086975307682017-06-06T22:21:28.908-04:002017-06-06T22:21:28.908-04:00Oh my goodness !
