Sorry about your Mom but enjoy the things she left behind. My husbands aunt Bea who was like a mother to me passed away and left me tons of yarn and I still haven't finished with it all. It's hard to organize it seems like you no sooner get it all fixed and you have to look for something. My son had come to stay with us when he first came to Fl. and we still have some of his things in the house and the garage and I can't seem to get organized. I always make the holiday things and a lot of things for the kids. to much to do and not enough time.
