Karen says I’ve got too many boxes around, that I need to go through them and throw a bunch of stuff away…
But guess what? I’m very attached to everything I have. Its stuff that defined my teen years, my old girlfriends, get well cards, awards, certificates, more letters from old girlfriends…..
I’m afraid if I get rid of some of this stuff, a part of my life will disappear.
My collection includes pictures of Karen when we were dating. You know I can’t get rid of those.
I’ve got slides and super 8 movies from the army, pictures of our children the age that our grandsons are at now.
Where do you start?
For me, I’ll just find a new place to put them and maybe someday Karen will be glad that I kept all of these souvenirs.
(note added by Karen: does he really think I will ever want all those letters from his old girlfriends?????)
