Perfect timing for me to read this. We had a leak in our kitchen. It went down to our basement. I came back from a few weeks away to the floor torn up in my kitchen, 1/2 bath and hallway upstairs and to the carpeting and items on top of filing cabinets thrown to the back of my basement. The cabinets were moved so they could tear out the wet carpet. One of the filing cabinets is full of years of my mom's hard work on her parents genealogy all the way back to our ancestor who came to the United States around 1600! Those are the things she left behind for me and what I will take! Thank you for this piece of sharing what you took and left behind! Keep on keeping on!
I also collected rocks, seashells, and sea glass. I once had bowls, baskets, and jars full of shells, far too many. So I went back to my local beach and scattered them on the sand. I gave away the sea glass when I moved. I kept a few small heart shaped rocks.
