I knew that we were both pack-rats, but my eyes have been opened and I see that we need help. Luckily, I have already narrowed most of my stuff down to a few boxes that contain priceless crafts from Boy Scout Summer Camp, Cub Scout patches, school awards and college textbooks. They are securely stowed in the attic. Andrea, however, is smack in the middle of her stuff! From where I sit I can see no less than 7 boxes of cards and notes passed in school. She is getting rid of them slowly, but she has to read them first... she opens the intricately folded notes and laughs about what was happening that day in high school, or comments about how sweet her sister is for mailing her a soccer booster. It is quite the process, but I love the girl!

that's awesome! oh lil ree! i love how you tell the story jay! you two are too cute! :)
Sweet, sentimental Andrea, I do not envy the job you have ahead of you...but this is a time to get ruthless! Remember: if you forgot you had it until you stumbled upon it again, you won't miss it if you throw it away! :) My offer still stands to help, but I know I can't read all your notes for you.
