One of my projects for this year is to peel off all those photos in albums from the 70s and 80s and rehome them in more photo friendly books. <br />Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16035113274497372396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-15775751989212389422014-01-02T01:56:02.461-06:002014-01-02T01:56:02.461-06:00Happy New Year!

I even understand the importance of the history -- but didn't do it. When I first started helping Aunti Fern, she had lot of her personal Christmas letters. I don't know what she did with them in the past two years. As little snow that we get, I do recognize the sound at different temperatures. Right now we are suffering freezing fog and slippery roads, but no snow.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05404943895800549273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-81604897298433709792014-01-01T22:38:55.734-06:002014-01-01T22:38:55.734-06:00A friend of mine takes all the photo cards and put...A friend of mine takes all the photo cards and puts them on a ring, and then keeps them and pulls them out the next year. I don't know if she keeps them forever. I don't keep other people's letters, but I do have all of mine that we have written through the years, plus any photo cards we sent. I am also keeping my daughters cards and letters.<br />I like your intentions.

De-clutter and organize are still in progress for me. I can see how much I've accomplished but also see the gigantic amount left to do. I just "pinned" some ideas for cards. I like the gift tag idea. We will look forward to hearing more about this project.Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12404589772713955710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-28947232975899798472014-01-01T17:12:38.306-06:002014-01-01T17:12:38.306-06:00We had a nice dinner and watched a little televisi...We had a nice dinner and watched a little television, then went to bed early.

Also the blue jeans even freeze stiff while you are out there. I want to venture out and take pictures today. I have the time so I should get motivated.
