I have 2 boys. They aren't interested in anything. I have all my mom's stuff, her furniture and all that she kept of sentimental value of HER mother. I started to collect things to sell but my camera died so I can't take photos of them and that kinda ruined my whole schedule. I did get upset when my son moved into mom's trailer when she moved in with us. They built a shed and moved all her stuff into it BUT never put a door on it so rain and snow got in there. Ruined her "shoe closet" and all her shoes (and they were great and my size, too, and used to borrow them) and her brass bed. I was so upset over that!
The worse thing of all was my stuff. After 28 years, I still haven't found my canning stuff in our shed. When we were building this home, we borrowed a trailer from hubby's job and he paid a friend to move all our stuff in there until hubby built a shed, then moved the stuff in there. I was working full time and a part time job brick and mortar so it would be dark by the time I got home. I had a kitchen Aid mixer with blender, food processor, and another attachment that I wanted in the house immediately. Never happened. They broke the glass on two doll hand made doll cabinets that held my 8" dolls I received for Christmas when I was 8 or 9 yo and since they never enclosed the area between roof and shed, birds and mice got in and made nests on my books and my dolls. I kept asking for hubby to bring them down immediately, but he didn't and I couldn't reach the shelf they were on so they went in the garbage.
I have come to the conclusion that men can't hear a wife's requests unless they are nagged. I was told I nag him too much even though I ask once, wait, and ask a month later. He's always so busy and forgets. I understand because he needs to do his work outside and around the house but he also has to do my work, too, since there's a lot I can no longer do. So I try to behave.
I should just have a company come and clean out and sell everything for me. Hubby says if we would have a yard sale and put a $1 tag on everything, I'd make a lot of money. I'm in no condition to do that and he wouldn't be around for it. Sorry, didn't mean to turn this into a book. Guess I feel like yaking a lot today.
