It seems like it would be something you'd like especially. So, unless your sister wants it (and then what would we do?), you may have it. Maybe I will follow the advice of this post and make a gift of it to you at some momentous occasion. <BR/><BR/>Like maybe 2009 when High Def TV rolls in and my TV and outdoor antenna no longer works. I've been playing with the idea to give up the habit for good then.Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17693378720453372676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33950202.post-63181484248316099942007-07-02T16:41:00.000-05:002007-07-02T16:41:00.000-05:00One word of advice, Audrey - get it in writing, da...One word of advice, Audrey - get it in writing, darling. Notarize it if you have to ;-p. This is our fate, the juniors of our families, where the older ones live by this motto: "What's mine is mine, what's yours we share". You end up with Midge instead of Barbie (ahh, you're too young to know what I'm babbling about), and everyone assumes you didn't want anything anyway 'cause you never SAID anything. What? oh yes, now that you mention it, I am a little overdue for my meds... but it is nice and restful here with the padded walls and all...heheRimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147436585136313287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33950202.post-74748958923386624552007-07-02T16:09:00.000-05:002007-07-02T16:09:00.000-05:00Hey!

Who knows, maybe someday some great-grand child will want something. I am de-cluttering but it is a very slow process. I've stopped filling the gap though and that is progress!Bobbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16568090556772960446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33950202.post-7706857599647738722007-07-02T13:57:00.000-05:002007-07-02T13:57:00.000-05:00It is brilliant - I feel sorry that artists so oft...It is brilliant - I feel sorry that artists so often sell their work out of the family - these personal things have so much meaning.

Wow... How nice to have a real, genuine, certified heirloom piece - so rare in this instant tradition world we live in. I just know that by the time Katlynn ends up with it, she'll have loved it and dreamt about it and treasured it for as long as she can remember.Rimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147436585136313287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33950202.post-62792091072737250092007-07-02T09:35:00.000-05:002007-07-02T09:35:00.000-05:00Oh my goodness!!
