The cool thing is that we get grandma's good things slowly and nobody died. My mom is going modern and sleek. Or maybe she's slowly moving into my house, either way it's getting done. I have the honor of taking mom in when she is too old to be by herself or she blows all her money (which is fine too cause I like her new house stuff too and we wear the same size.) My mom is pretty damn cool.

Two thirds of them are tucked away in the attic and out in the garage because we only use them when we're throwing huge parties. Which we used to do twice a year but haven't for ages.<BR/><BR/>At least if I had to move to an apartment I would know which glasses to keep (the ones in the kitchen), and which to toss (all the others).Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220769941216066968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30306964.post-49342472981838168922008-10-06T06:30:00.000-07:002008-10-06T06:30:00.000-07:00HA!
