It is very sad because her family, if like most families, would have no idea of the value or the why of her purchases. I, too, had many things that I cherished, that had good memories for me and that I wanted to do "sometime." But, when I had to move here, I gave away, literally, ten pick up loads of goods, not all crafts, to a relief agency and then two more loads to a garage sale being held to support the local cemetery. And, now, I am still condensing, selling off, giving away because I need to fit into one room by the end of the year. It is sad to me because I miss those things, will not buy more, and can now only work on what I have supplies for.
Please, folks, take the time to understand your family and why they do the things they do. Cherish the gifts they make, even if you think you don't like them. There is love behind it. That is the message I would like to pass on ... but not to this board .... you all know that already!
Thank you for being so supportive to each other! Have a Blessed Day!
