[quote=Anonymous]We kept 2 pieces of furniture, a set of dishes, a set of mid-mod silverware, photographs, and some jewelry. Everything else from MIL’s 3 level townhouse we sold, donated, or trashed. It was really sad because her stuff was so precious to her that she refused to downsize so that she could move closer to us and we ended up ditching over 3/4 of the things that she valued and prized over being able to spend time with her family. I made a box of photos for us and one for another relative close to her. I threw away any photo of a person my husband couldn’t recognize and I threw away any photos without people in them. Eventually, I will send them out to be scanned onto a CD and then we will throw the photos away. [/quote]
