[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 290088, member: 6705"] My Mom was an only child, and so am I. When Grandma and Grandpa passed, she and my Dad had to go thru everything. And I do mean [I]everything[/I]. So she's started already. She'll pick a room every couple of months, then ask me if there is anything in it that I will want. Then she has a roll of inventory stickers she puts on the bottom. So sometimes I get stuff now, sometimes it will be later. A lot of the "good" furniture, I already have. The only things left really are her dresser, her vanity, and the coffee and end tables my Grandpa made. And a rocking chair that Mom got when I was born. Otherwise I have it... When they got a new bed, they got a Sauder headboard so I wouldn't feel guilty about getting rid of it! Of course... I found out during the Grandparent Saga that I had two uncles, younger than Mom - one lived 4 days, the other was stillborn. Wow. No wonder that GP's were a bit nuts! [/QUOTE]
