When ever someone pack rats they feel like what they are keeping is important for the future. Well, that's one of the reasons why I keep something whether it is a piece of junk or a valuable piece of jewelery I give it value or worth. In my vast collection of junk, and I do collect junk, I have decided to go through my "stuff" and throw things away. This is one of my new year's resolutions is to stop collecting junk and throw away the junk I already have. Spring cleaning before spring. But for some reason when I clean my junk gets tossed from one pile to the other. Why? one might ask. I'm a little crazy, I'm admitting to this now, but the real reason is because I can't make a decision if I should keep that particular document or paper. At one time it had value to me. I've made an association with it and by keeping it, for me, it is a visual representation of a memory I had some way or the other. These particular cards are pieces I have pack rated for over two years. Maybe I have kept them because I had a hope that I could give them away to someone who could help them. They are two cards my friend Susan sent me. Her and her husband what to grow their family. They have been having troubles, I don't know all the details and she probably wouldn't want me to share the details if I did know them. I keep coming across the cards but I have no idea of what to do with them. So here I am writing about it. If any of you fine people who read this post know of anyone who wants to give up a child for adoption, these fine friends of mine are looking to adopt. The contact info is on the cards above. After this I'm going to throw the cards away. I might tweet about the blog but I guess that is all I can do to help my friends. The cards sitting in a pile of papers definitely won't help, so here I am trying to help someone who might be struggling with the fact that she can't grow her family. This is my way to help, a very small way.
