He only has one eye and his one leg rests cosily next to him in his box. Every now and then I threaten to have him repaired but never actually get to it. And the books, oh yeah, the books!A human kind of humanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12944399986334367708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-28450953317324832642011-06-07T22:32:42.549-04:002011-06-07T22:32:42.549-04:00LOL well, I have kept stuff too and my grands play...LOL well, I have kept stuff too and my grands play with them.

But to see them destroyed will kill me!<br />PPCM~ Well Hello♥ Yes... us Momma's love to hold on to the wonderful toys. I actually think the ones I have kept will make wonderful toys for Grands. Something different from the current toys. I didn't pull a single toy from the attic to part with! I just reorganized and made it "look" like there is less up there! loljanishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18424946398926069813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-22107144097321713312011-06-07T20:50:16.380-04:002011-06-07T20:50:16.380-04:00Oh Jan.....You just made me feel soooo much better...Oh Jan.....You just made me feel soooo much better about having all of the kid's toys. I keep saying that some day we'll have grandkids who will love coming to our house a playing with their parent's toys from childhood. My friend has been giving me such a hard time and trying to get me to throw it out or donate it. The sad thing is that I moved all of it from Texas to Oklahoma and now to Louisiana. Thank you to all those who commented that they're doing the same!!! My mom threw everything out. My mother-in-law on the other hand had an old toy box full of what was probably lead paint covered items. My kids used to say that when they visited Indy their grandma had great toys, but all they had to play with at Mamaw's house was a Mr. Potato Head : )Rhonda Wileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03759479817370297481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-61492865329931235072011-06-07T20:08:40.284-04:002011-06-07T20:08:40.284-04:00You just wanted to work in a Aerosmith refrance.

The attic is very insulated (we live in Indy so it has to be). This is the only area that has the plywood floors & lights. The rest is closet off. Perfect for storage.

My sisters and I had an extensive Barbie clothes collection that was handmade by someone my Aunt knew and we saved it all and she played with it all, and it's all still in great shape and yes, I'm saving it all for Grandkids. :)<br /><br />I know you're right about most of it, but I will not part with everything. No way, no how. I give you props! <br /><br />Love, LindaLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03241010459789159870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5617907369106630962.post-32012165645966929202011-06-07T11:51:07.470-04:002011-06-07T11:51:07.470-04:00You are talking to the original pack rat.

I even have box after box of things (sadly, not toys) from my own childhood. My wife has had the job of sorting through the kids' stuff, otherwise nothing would have been pitched. Remember that Dads tend to be nothing more than big kids', so half the toys we buy are because we want to play with them, so it only goes to follow that we would not want to throw them away.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08354263970813874412noreply@blogger.com
