Friends and Family
Apr 11th, 2008 by jae
My husband came home and saw the collection of items for this post. He asked me “what is all this stuff?” I answered that it was for my F post. “I’m struggling to see how a seahorse and an esspresso cup equal F.”
Some people have scrapbooks and photo albums. I have “stuff”. In my kitchen cupboards, on shelves, beside my clock radio there is “stuff”. I don’t see a toy or a book, I see the person behind it. The “stuff” that came to me by way of those that are important. My friends. My family.
I’m the same way. I have a star looking thingy clock from the 60’s – Grandparents on the Pascaris’ side. A robin carved out of soap stone – Grandma Harnden. And a tiny windup robot – My mom. I have more stuff, but I would run out of room here. It’s fun being surrounded with stuff from your fam and friends.
Pleasure is ALL mine.
I also have little this and thats around the house that remind me of people here and gone.
My house is definitely not “Ikea” style.
I don’t have any ’surfaces’ left, I have bits and bobs, that mean something to me, everywhere!!
