About a year ago, I realized we needed to get rid of things ... so it has started! We attacked a large dresser full of sterling and silver plate, first. Have made it thru 2 drawers. Sterling engraved from grandparents, son has taken. Most of rest have sold, probably for scrap on ebay. Splate is slowly selling but at minimal prices unless rare. Since my walking abilities are very limited, depend on DH to bring things for photos then storage. 24 place settings of Kirk will be divided, half to be saved for granddaughter, other half we are going to sell, sadly. All of this is just the beginning, Sent a load of furniture to auction for next month. DH hasn't brought anything of his to sell:yawn: Will be interesting to see if he is willing to part with any of his treasures. Good luck in lightening the load. Patd[/QUOTE]
