Good morning friends.
Over 60 years ago I got married to my late husband. I found yesterday some papers I had written, some letter from my mom and a couple of letter from the girls wjen they were young.I´m sorting them and throwing some with no value. Other will be shown to my girls.
It all started 3 days ago when my sister called me and told me that she had never been bright. I remembered some letters she wrote to me when she was in the US in an exchange program and I told her that I´d check if I still had them.
Those letters are still missing but I just found a letter from Claudia. She was 10 years old then and very much like she is now at 60.
My chores today will be to read old letters. I already washed some clothes and when Juanita, my washing machine finished, the sun hid.

Reading old letters is always delightful. The letters my mother wrote are still safely kept by my maternal uncle, who passed away forty-five years ago. I've seen those from him. Since I was too young to know how she was.i feel extremely happy to read her letters.

How funny. Some people never change. I enjoy going through old papers. I will be going through some things in my closet this winter. Cleaning it out.

Today Claudia came and had lots of fun reading one of her letters that said that I was not a good mother. It seems that she still thinks that about me.

I hope you're remembering all the good times you had with your hubby and your little girls.
Pretty threw away old letters/cards she didn't think I needed anymore when we were getting ready to move to this house. I'd kept them up until then.
I washed a lot of dirty dishes this morning and woke up a little while ago.

@DaddyEvil I´m reading these letters because I promised my sister. But they were hidden in my closet for years.

@marguicha True... Pretty was trying to trim down what we'd need to move into this small house from our large house so a lot of stuff got thrown away. We still have a lot of stuff packed in plastic totes in the garage. We haven't been in most of those totes since we moved into this house almost 8 years ago.
