    A collection of "shakers" Never even give that a thought. . I do have some very old china, I keep displayed behind glass in the dining room..There will be a fight over that some day.. and I am not sure just how to straighten this one out..
    I had both my shots, last on o 19 Feb... Pfizer they were, and not one issue, not even a sore spot... welcome back from the shadows!!!
I understand what you mean about china etc. The younger generation seems to have no interest in things that hold so many memories for us nor do they want the clutter. My shot was also Pfizer and have had so side effects. I ill be glad to get the second one and be done with it but here we currently have to wait 4 months! Thanks for the welcome back....definitely wasn't in the shadows. Always nice to see you drop by w

Don't know what you are referring to being awesome. Maybe you will stop by again on another post.

    Pictures are tough to decide whether to hold onto or not. I recently put a slew of my travel pictures onto a flash drive. If nothing else, it freed up storage space on my laptop. Now, if I could only decide what to do with the stacks of photo albums piled up in a closet Always nice to have you drop by and share your thoughts.
I have a relatively inexpensive all-in-one printer/copier/scanner - so I have taken several of my "old" photos, scanned them to the flash drive/external hard drive for posterity. Some of those pictures are of my first day of the first grade of school with my best childhood friend (we still keep in touch) in 1953, my High School group graduation picture form 1965 and a picture of a family reunion taken in the late 1950's

What a great idea! I hadn’t thought of that and should try a few pictures to check the quality. More great memories to tuck away.

Thank you for the warm greeting. The Covid situation here has become dire. Daily case counts, just in my province are now averaging 4400, our ICUs have over 700 patients and deaths are over 20. The stay-at-home order has been extended till May 20, additional public health restrictions added and police can arbitrarily stop anyone and question why they are outside and ask for their name and address; non-compliance will result in a $750+ fine. Thank goodness I have had my first Pfizer injection.

I own a ridiculous quantity of Lupins; haven't a clue what to do with them…

I wasn't sure what lupins were so looked them up. Apparently, the flowers are not edible, but the seeds are and are sometimes ground into flour.

Downsizing can be difficult because of the memories associated with different items. I have to do it when I am in the ‘right’ frame of mind. I have started taking pictures of some things that I find particularly difficult to part with. Thanks for stopping by. You are welcome anytime.
