Do you guess remember when Joss had a baby, we sent him handknitted gifts (as well as a book donation. Ann Weber knit a blanket, and I knit a sweater, and I think someone else made a little hat. I know my sweater was mostly orange wool.

Does anyone remember what the hat looked like? I just was reading the chapter on Firefly that has been exerpted from the new Joss bio, and got to thinking-- did we inspire Jayne's hat?

Hey, I have been successfully keeping up with my TV watching this week!

Sometimes my personal goals are really dumb, but it still feels good to achieve them.

I'm glad you are making progress, Connie. That is not a project I have tackled, yet.

I'm so glad your faux-son is stepping up to do this. Best of all, this stuff will get a chance to get into the hands of people who will really appreciate it.

Kind of like how I felt about donating great piles and piles of Mom's clothes and shoes to the Good Will store in PA where I'd gotten so many great finds, it was a way of paying forward.

Faux son would have sent more to the trash, but he knows Hubby would have wanted stuff to have a use.

Somebody will be so happy to get that stuff.

Day off, yay! I got to sleep in a little bit, and now I'm going for a run in the woods.

Going through stuff like that is just so hard.

Doing it with someone(s) was so much easier, which made it rather a social/family occasion to remember the person, almost fun at times.

Definitely -- I made my mother go through a box with me recently, which was a great call. Partly because most things in it were basically trash, but sentimental trash! So hard to throw out.
