Friends and Family

April 11th, 2008 · 5 Comments

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.

Thoughtful, generous

Where do I begin?

Funny, supportive

Encourages my quirky nature

Love of my life

    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.

    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.
