    Ypejji, I am sure that will change as he matures. I know it’s really painful now especially because of everything you have done for him. Sending hugs.

    We took everything that belonged to the kids in the attic, boxed it up and shipped it to their homes. Expensive but worth it! We had done a deep inventory while getting ready for the annual garage sale. One of the kids had a lot of now vintage Star Wars toys. He said he would probably regret it but to sell them. DH started researching and found several were worth quite a bit. That set us off on collecting all things and sending them. They can either go for the buried treasure themselves or donate. Feels great to have another layer of stuff gone.

    When I left Kansas the kids stuff stayed there with their dad. Of course when they moved to Reno as adults some of their stuff ended up in our shed. They had to take it during the downsizing. If they didn’t I sold it at my garage sale. Good for you sending it to them.

    Scratched the second of three emotionally charged lottery tickets. Won nothing and discarded the ticket at work rather than in my home trash where it could be seen.

    I listed a couple of pairs of shoes on eBay today. Even if they don't sell, I will probably give them away or donate. I don't think I've ever listed something on eBay and then decided to keep it.

    I gave away 19 items to our Buy Nothing Group and a friend and put an old TV stand which we have finally replaced out on the curb, and it was gone within 4 hours. New total for month: 24.
